I read the first to chapters of I'll Give it My All... Tomorrow today. It's really good, as a message to young people today that you really have to fight and work hard to attain your dreams. But more importantly that you have to start now. Don't put it off even a single day later, or you'll end up like Shizuo.
It's a message to the young slackers of the world to not waste our lives.

I've been collecting Kamui on and off over the last 25 years.It doesn't get the recognition it deserves.It's classic/badass and bloody.The cover ANN shows here is the first collected graphic novel.I bought the first two,but never saw anything else released.I've still got a ton of the singles that were released in the early 90's.Good news to hear he's still working on it.

Aww... I was hoping the headline meant that Tokyopop would resume publishing Yubisaki Milk Tea in North America.
It's been something like a year and a half since they put out volume 7.

Well, it does mean that, by proxy. Tokyopop only stopped publishing in North America because no more tanks had been released in Japan. So now that the manga is continuing, it'll (presumably) continue here as well. Which is, of course, good. :p

This is splendid news. Yubisaki Milk Tea is probably my greatest guilty pleasure manga read.

Hmm... only 7 tankubons in Japan? (According to the encyclopedia, apparently, yes.)
That is weird... there are enough scans of what's already been published but not yet put in a tankubon to fill at least one more volume.

Those singles you're talking about...are those the ones co-published by Viz and the now-defunct Eclipse Comics? I do remember seeing those at comics shops back then. I was more into Mai the Psychic Girl which was being released at the same time as Kamui.

The scans probably come from when it was published in Young Animal, but even then I don't think the ending was published. I believe that number eight is the final volume though...
*edit* I see now that the article says there will be nine. Since I thought there would be only eight - I hope nine is the end. I would hate to wait another x number of years to find out what is going to happen.

Yeah,I got them in storage.I'll go find them tomorrow.
When all my friends were after American comics,I was the kid grabbing the weird foreign ones.I liked the eclipse format because it had a spine.Appleseed had a spine too.
I do remember Mai the Psychic Girl.Do you still have yours?

I remember reading Mai the Psychic Girl from the library a few years back. Out of print manga being redone in Japan carries a feeling of nostalgia.
