Now if someone would only save this series from the licensing limbo it is trapped in.

Exactly.

I love this series, and I picked up the first two volumes back at A-Cen, but I'm afraid to pick up anymore since shelf space is limited in my place and I don't want a beloved, but incomplete, series just sitting there with the question of "will it ever be finished?" looming over it. XP

Whoa seriously, first Bakuman, then Gunslinger Girl, now this. What's next?

Oh and Gantz will also end this year.

Hmm, some popular manga ending soon.

Well, I'll definitely check this out as I've heard it's a lot better than its anime adaptation from sources and comments I've read.

I really want to finish this series! Though with how long it is, I doubt many publishers would give it a chance... Sad

Maybe JManga? Or an omnibus release?

It would be awesome if Viz picked this up and rereleased it, maybe in omnibus form. They're releasing Skip Beat which is still ongoing...

Yesss, relicense pleeeease, (but I'm not too fond of the idea that JManga might pick it up either... their editing quality is kind of... ehhh...)

I feel like the fact that it's coming to a conclusive end, should give companies more of a reason to save this project. And I agree, I have a feeling that VIZ would be pretty perfect for this series
