Go Comi releases some of the most underrated and beautiful manga out there. They released Crossroads and After School Nightmare, that's enough for me to be a loyal fan. I really hope their company picks up again and can get back to releasing more quality titles.

I own two volumes of Crossroads and I think it's very mediocre.

I purchased volume 1 of 07-Ghost and have been struggling to find all the volumes of Cantarella (Most awesome manga ever) in my local stores, but NONE of them have Cantarella! I better hope Go! Comi doesn't die!!!

I love Tenshi Jya Nai, and I bought the whole series from Go Comi. I was also buying Her Majesty's Dog for a while, but I ended up having to scale back my series, and that was one of the ones I cut. It would be a real shame if we lost Go Comi; I think they've brought out some neat titles.

I hope they weather the storm. I've purchased several complete series published by Go! Comi. I'm a fan of Shioko Mizuki's work and hope they can complete all those series. I'm also hoping for the second volume of Kurogane Communication.

Cantarella has been on hiatus for awhile because the mangaka was busy with a new manga and I think she had been ill also, but I'm not sure. It was supposed to resume soon but I don't know if it has yet.

That's too bad. You should read the entire series to see how special it is.

If we talk about greatly underrated manga, i just gotta mention Song of the Hanging Sky. Is anyone besides myself actually buying this series?!

Honestly, I read most of my Go! Comi manga at the library. I did buy Hikkatsu! and a few volumes of After School Nightmare, though, and intend to purchase the Train+Train bundle in the future. I don't know how many titles they are currently releasing, but I hope things work out for them.

So that's why I haven't been able to find the second volume of KirePapa, eh?

I am. I haven't given up hope, but when even a popular title like 07-Ghost goes MIA, I have grave doubts of seeing the Hanging Sky story play out in full. At least After School Nightmare is complete - that's one of the titles I recommend to people who think manga is all ninjas and schoolgirls. I'd thought to add Hanging Sky to the list in time, but with only two volumes... |

Kirepapa is being released by Aurora under their Deux Press line, not Go Comi. |

Yeah, I think Song of the Hanging Sky is my favorite Go! Comi series so far, but it's hard to get others to read it when there are only two volumes to go off of. I think "online theft" is probably the biggest reason they aren't doing so well. Since their titles aren't well-known I guess people don't want to risk buying them or something dumb like that... |

Damn. I wish the manga industry weren't so hard to get answers out of... |

I am glad that all volumes of After School Nightmare have been released. It is one of my favorite Go! Comi titles. Her Majesty's Dog and Crossroad are good series, as well. I truly hope Go! Comi remains in the market and brings us more volumes of Cantarella and Bound Beauty.
