Shocked

Yen knows where it's at, don't they? They seem to be going for series with Anime adaptions.

Was hoping for a Durarara or Baccano light novel license... Oh well.

That's a really good price for an online subscription. They seem to have their stuff together. Also HOTD... Shocked seen part of the anime, so I would really like to see the manga.

Awsome! I'll be getting HSOTD, and I might try The Bride's Story. I was already buying Higurashi, and I have no interest in Uraboku.

I'm not surprised that the HSOTD manga is getting a proper English translation. It was not a matter of if, but a matter of when. Good for Yen Press to pick it up, I will make sure to purchase it when it comes out.

Yeah. From what's been mentioned so far, Otoyome-Gatari is the title that I'm most looking forward to. I'd love to see Yen rescue Emma when DC lets her go, too. ^_^

Awesome news for The Bride's Stories. I've only bought Azumanga Daioh and Yotsuba&! from them -- here's hoping their adaption is closer to the former than the latter.

Also interested to see how their online service shakes out.

Nice. More Kaoru Mori is always a good thing.

Good luck, Yen Press! Very Happy

I'll be getting this subscription for sure. I really enjoyed the Yen Plus issues that I bought, so this will fill in that hole. And, oh, I want to read Aron's Absurd Armada. Cheers to new manhwa! Now, if only they could get their hands on The Breaker... Cool

EDIT:
Since Yostuba&! is going to be added, does that mean there's a possibility for a simulrelease?

EDIT2:
Also, on the sign-up form, it allows a person to choose their location. Would that mean this is more than just North America and the UK? That this could be available to a lot more people?

I'll definitely be getting The Bride's Stories. I just signed up for Yen Plus and it looks like they took out all the Japanese series. Yotsuba isn't in it either.

That would be wonderful.

Yen Press seems to be picking up a lot of great titles.
