If anyone at Vertical is reading this and you're really that close to TezukaPro, please re-release Black Jack. :cry:

If To Terra is successful in the US, Vertical is hoping to then publish Takemiya's other manga; one that was specifically mentioned by name is the seminal shounen-ai Song of Wind and Trees.

Oh god, I'm definitely buying To Terra. I really, really hope To Terra is sucessful in some way. It is my biggest wish that Kaze to Ki no Uta be released in the United States. Anime cry

Since this was discussed at MangaNEXT, I'll bring it up now. We would love to re-release Black Jack but there are some licensing hurdles we would need to clear to do so. That said, if we were to re-release Black Jack it would get the "Vertical" treatment.

So Viz still owns it, huh? Oh well, maybe they'll re-release it after Phoenix...How about Princess Knight or Leo? Cool

All I can say is stayed tuned, we'll be making an annoucement regarding a Tezuka title in the coming months. Very Happy

I find it quite interesting that Del Rey are going to be publishing a lot of Nakayoshi manga titles over the next year or so due to their parent company's relationship with Kodansha and if anyone from Del Rey is reading this, I and I guess many others want to know is if there is any possibility of going after the license for an English-Language version of the revamped version of the Sailor Moon manga if the current situation between Naoko Takeuchi, Kodansha and Toei ever gets resolved in the future and said license was made available.

Tsubasa on TV? Some sort of series I actually like, on TV, possibly not horribly hacked up like a 4kids title?

... Am I dreaming?

Just to clarify, what I said was that it would be great to see Tsubasa on TV, and that I have no inside information about this. It was just my observation as a fan of the series.

I just now heard about MangaNEXT, and I thought it was pretty interesting that it was our first manga convention, so I type it in Google, and guess what I find? IT WAS IN SECAUCUS, NJ! That's less than an hour and a half away from where I live! I could have went!

Now that I'm so interested, where these the only two companies there, or were there more? Anime cry

I have no problems getting Phoenix, but man is it ever hard to get the first volume of Adolf! I will probably end up ordering it online.

Old school sci-fi shoujo in the form of To Terra is something that I look forward to if only for the sole reason that it's old school (well, that's not the only reason, but nobody pays attention anyway).

Good job, Vertical.

Check out ebay's "associate" half.com here. Actually, since I'm such a nice guy, the specific link for the hardest-to-find Phoenix volume is here. Don't be fooled by the title as the picture is not only the cover for volume one, but the ISBN number matches up with the first volume as well. Also I had ordered from that selection before and it did turn out to be the first volume, if that further consoles you.

More Tezuka? I'm in.

Now then, all that remains is for Taiyo Matsumoto's No. 5 to be re-released by Viz again! ... That's probably a dead dream...

The first volume of Adolf is more readily available than the first volume of Phoenix right now. It is fairly easy to find Phoenix series, save for the aforementioned volume one, at local comic book stores, but that isn't the same case with the Adolf series. I did get a used paperback copy of the first volume of Adolf off Amazon and while the condition is hardly what I would call "new and perfect," I'll take what I can get.

You'd think with the release of that Blood Will Tell video game, someone would translate it to tie it in.
