Eh, can't say it's much of a loss. The IS manga had crap art.

Definitely. Well, not surprised that MF is ending the two manga series since they pretty much washed their hands of it.

I thought the issue was finally resolved, with both sides coming to terms. I personally like the series, and hope the LN continues and we get a season 2.

It was resolved. MF is not going to publish IS anymore so it makes sense for them to end the manga, too.

Methinks theres quite a bit of covered up drama involving Media Factory and IS than there is being released to public...

Thats not what I meant, I heard basically there was a go ahead to continue the light novel, maybe with a different publisher; at least do a second season maybe adding an original ending, although based on the LN the story seems far from over. But as well as it sold, its hard to figure thats the end.

Kōdansha will publish Yumizuru Izuru's Hōkago Battlefield in August.
On Twitter in June, Yumizuru wrote that he was also writing IS, but he didn't write about whether a new publishing firm would publish IS.

I really did love the anime but didn't bother to read the manga in hopes for a season 2. If MediaFactory isnt going to publish it, Yumizuru should have someone else publish it.

Fault of izuru, he continues to publish news nonsense on twitter.
For example continues to publish notice that talk about iphone games, instead of talking about IS ...

Re-published-
Rumor has it that Producing of “IS SEASON 2″…may be difficult.
They say that original author ”Izuru Yumizuru” is a controversial figure.
I read his blog…I don’t cotton to him at all.
According to the leaked information by some “staff”,
(It has not been ascertained whether or not this was really information.)
"Contract of him with MEDIA FACTORY is already broken.
New book will not be issued…(snip)
To survive, He went to sales Kadokawa group(Including Dengeki), I think.
But his bad reputation is already well-known, -Turn down a suit-…(snip)
By the look of things, OVA will be final product of IS."
Actually, His book(IS)… Began to be removed from Japanese bookstore.
It was a doughy mess in Japanese OTAKU.(in early February, 2012)

As 21 March 2012, situation remains unchanged.
At some bookstore...IS(original novel) sale end at February 29.

This is an announcement of "The 10th Anniversary of MFJ pocket edition -Summer School Festival-".
NO CHARACTERS of Infinite Stratos.

*P.S. Due to circumstances, removed some Japanese source links.
If you want Japanese source, Please search this word in Japanese search sites.
"IS 打ち切り"

But... in small drops, Anime-related products seems to have been sold.
This is for iPhone.

Vocal Best Album(March 14 out)

and some new illustrations published in Anime magazine.
