They sound promising so I'll be keeping an eye out myself.

I'm hoping this means Yen Press will have access to more Kodansha titles in the future. *crosses fingers*

Hmm... I think Iiki no Ki ended this year. Maybe that's why it got picked up. It sort of flew under my radar. I actually haven't read much new from Kaori Yuki even though she is one of my favorite artists. I guess I'm just used to her publishing with Hakusensha. Or her old series are more my taste. The Guignol series was the last one published in English right? I wish someone could do her Ludwig stuff. Or a lot of the other titles that are missing out of her works in English.

Maybe I'll give it a try though. However, I'll probably end up with a Japanese copy first.

High School DxD and Ani-Imo were the ones I've read scan-lated, until Yen Press has licensed 'em, so I'm going have to stop reading those scanlations and wait for their official state-side release to support Yen Press. Smile

Let's just hope they'll be on a quicker release schedule than Spice and Wolf's initial release rate. DxD's volume count is already almost up to that of S&W, with Volume 16 due out soon.

Well, it'll be a very long wait for them to catch up to were you were previously at. And considering the gap between Japanese chapters and US volumes, I'd just continue reading the scanlations then buy Yen Press's volumes when they come out.

I'm a bit interested in Void's Enigmatic Mansion. Really liking the art, too.

Hopefully the Alice visual fan book does well. I know there are a few others floating around, mostly published by Ohzora and I think one by Enterbrain. What with Seven Seas having all of the Ichijinsha Alice titles, I guess this is the best way for YP to gets its Alice fix.

YP didn't license the light novels, though; it's the manga adaptation, which is at five volumes plus a one volume spin-off.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me WHY "The World God Only Knows" is STILL unlicensed?

I just don't get it!

It's a VERY popular series, I'm sure the manga would sell very well, why won't anyone license it?!?!
