EMMA! I've been hoping Yen Press would get it for so long. I hope they make it hardcover like A Bride's Story <3

Yes:"Yen Press's release will be two hardcover omnibus editions"
It should be very nice

But I wish Seven Seas had gotten Trinity Seven and Prison School instead so the covers can be pristine. Oh well, I'm still getting them.

Woah there, Yen press, slow the f**k down. That's almost too much to take in at once. (Seven Seas has the right idea with their one announcement per day for a week approach)

*achem*

AWESOME! AWESOME! FRICKIN' AWESOME!

I'm so happy that Emma has been licensed again and bound for a totally sweet as well as convenient release. I love Kaoru Mori and I've had this series on my list for a long time, but thought that I'd never get a chance. I'm a total goddamned sucker for the Victorian era and I imagine that cheerful dork Kaoru Mori is just the person to indulge that suckerdom.

I'm curious about the Chaika - The Coffin Princess manga given my fondness for the anime. I'm far from sold on the idea, but it has my attention.

I've seen a few people really talk Prison School up, but it looks sort of gross and unpleasant to me. It's going to be animated and seems to have some enthusiastic fans, so I'm sure that I'll get a chance to refine, if not necessarily change, that impression.

As for Trinity Seven... Well, there sure will be boobs.

Very pleased that Emma will be in print again.

Also very excited to read the new Yuki Kaori manga - I love her stuff.

The other license of interest is Chaika. I think I'll wait for reviews of it, however. If it was the light novel then I'd probably pick it up, but since it's a manga adaptation I'd rather hold off.

+1

When I saw Chaika mentioned, I thought it was the LN. A bit saddened when I read through the article and it turned out to be the manga. Not anything to do with the quality of the adaption (no idea how good/bad it may be), but I hold off on manga adaptions of LNs.

I will keep an eye on it, just to see if they do cover the entire story. If they do, I'll end up getting it. Until that is known, I'll continue to hope the LN series gets picked up.

And, I've noticed there seems to be a lot of love for Emma in this thread. Never heard of that series before...I guess it's time to do some searching. Laughing

I'm interested in Emma, but binding 5 original volumes in a single book doesn't seem like a good idea to me. Especially when Yen Press has had binding issues in books with only 3 volumes.

This was a miscommunication/misunderstanding. The books will be two-in one, for a total of 5 omnibus releases. And hardcover. Binding shouldn't be an issue :)

Chaika being picked up is cool. And I heard Prison School is f'ing crazy so I I'll probably check that out too.
