I would love, love, love to see Gaiden and Burial released in the states.

To anyone out there who knows... Is Saiyuki not the money machine it used to be? Tokyopop stopped publishing Reload and no one seems to be snatching up the OVAs.

I believe it's because Ichijinsha is focusing on their Japanese releases and have put the licensing on hold. Also, if you look at some other TP Ichijinsha series (Loveless, Dazzle, etc.) most of them were/are suffering from the same fate.
