Part of me is surprised, but I’m glad.

Also I appreciate them going with the Crunchyroll spelling.

It makes me happy to see this beautiful manga getting traction again, I can't wait for the author to continue it.

As happy as I am that Somali is getting a print version, as I own all the digital volumes, the fact that Titan Manga is putting it out gives me pause. They're probably gonna butcher the translation considering how bad their recent output has been.

At this rate, I think I'm aware who Titan Comics regularly work with; and that is with publishers like Coamix and Shogakukan Creative.

Unfortunately, they probably won't. The manga was officially discontinued in 2020 due to the creator's health problems.

From this article:

Quote:
The Comic Zenon website had stated in December 2020 that the manga had ended due to the author's worsening health. Gureishi stated in May 2023 that they still wished to continue the manga through self-publishing on Kindle or other platforms, although they had added that there are no concrete plans for a continuation yet.

Not sure how I feel about Titan getting it, but I'm happy to be able to support the author and series!

I wish more money from manga sales went to the artist/s themselves, but I’m excited to have a physical copy now Very Happy
