Somehow Dark Horse reprinting something seems less likely than Panty and Stocking getting a second season

Are there any words if the reprint is going to be flipped like the old edition? Size? More importantly, is Dark Horse going to fix some of the translation and panel sequence errors? Translation notes related to Cultural and historical references embedded in the dialogues would also be nice. Here's hoping.

So I guess this is all the news we'll get out Dark Horse for awhile? Besides Berserk and Gantz and the upcoming reprints of Lone Wolf and Cub they don't really have anything anymore. I just wished those Ah/Oh My Goddess! Omnibuses sold better.

Is that the holdup? I’ve been waiting VERY patiently for them to continue, but I assumed it was because Dark Horse’s license reverted to Kodansha. Those are fantastic books, and it would be so unfortunate for them to just end halfway through. They shouldn’t even start collections like that unless they’re committed to finishing.

From what I heard from some random ANN user is they sold so badly that they are not finishing it. Besides no translation notes (which the non omnibuses versions were great at) they were a huge improvement paper quality wise.

No surprise OMG sold poorly in omnibus form, since it has a whack rushed ending.

Well hopefully they change their mind if that’s true. Unfortunately the original printings of the later volumes are OOP, and lack the color pages of these. OMG is one of the most iconic harem series, and it would be surprising if it really did sell poorly.

Would love it if Dark Horse would reprint and finish Kenichi Sonoda's 'Cannon God Exaxxion', and Johji Manabe's 'Drakuun: Dragon Princess Army', which they left unfinished.
