Hmmm, I actually read a few scanlation pages of this and thought the premise is pretty hilarious. It's great to have more yuri titles (especially the comedy ones) coming over though too bad there was a delay. Meh, I can wait.

I never even knew this had been licensed. Saw some art and heard some good things about it over at Seven Seas's forum. Someone over there really wanted them to license it but looks like someone else beat them to it.

I've never actually heard of Infinity Studios though. They any good?

And yes darkchibi07, more Yuri is always good.

I'll admit, my opinion is based on limited experience; just wanted to put that out front.

Infinity Studios also picked up Ninin ga Shinobuden (the parent source of Ninja Nonsense, which I adored), and I bought the first volume through Right Stuf. The first thing that came to mind was the dust jacket (first one I'd ever seen for an American manga release). That, sadly, was the high point. Printing was all right, but Infinity let quite a few spelling errors slip by. It was by no means uncomprehendable, but annoying to see on every 10th-15th page. However, the biggest problem I have with them right now is their seeming inability to get product to ship out within a reasonable time span. I've had a pre-order for the second volume of Shinobuden up since October, only to see the original release date pushed back to January. As of today, Right Stuf still has the second volume listed as "on order." Rather funny, considering that the last of the Ninja Nonsense DVDs had an insert pushing the third volume of the manga. All-in-all, what I've read from them hasn't been all that bad, but their means of distribution leave much to be desired.
