My sister picked this series up and we both like it a lot. I know that ADV put a lot of their titles on haitus, but for how long? Anime cry The next volume (vol. 3) of S&S hasn't come for, like, a year...

Why did ADV have bite off more than they could chew, then dissapoint the fans of their rather unknown titles? I hate the fact that they are playing favorites. Confused

Although I haven't read Sweet & Sensitive, I can agree about their releases: will Aria vol. 4 ever come out? *sigh* Does S&S have an anime? It's more likely they'll continue to publish it if there's an anime they can license (as is the case of Aria, which will soon have an anime adaption Very Happy ).

I've never read this title, either, but it souds okay.

ADV joined the manga market way too late, when the market was already highly saturated. ADV saturated the market even more, and the new titles it releases in English haven't sold very well. It's really a pity that a lot of great titles are basically going to waste.

S&S is a manhwa(sp?), so I highly doubt it has an anime. Sad

ADV entered the manga market when it was at it peak, and already oversaturated with titles. They made things worse by grabbing every little licenses they could, and none of them sold very well. ADV lost money, and so they decided to put most of their manga titles on hiatus. Right now, only the ones that sell well (Chrono Crusade, for example) are still being published.

Whether or not they'll continue Aria in the future, or can it completely, remains to be seen. Sad

ARGH!

those _______ blankety blanker! Aria is such a great title too. I've been waiting forever.

they should declare bankruptcy so somebody else can get their assets.

FROM THIS point forward... NOBODY SUPPORT ADV!

I really like this series - the characters are interesting and the story is cute. I typically don't like slice of life stories, but some odd reason, this series really grabbed me. I'm very disappointed that ADV hasn't released any new volumes in a long while, as I really want to read more of it!! Mad
