Well, the rumours that have been circulating for a while turned out to be true. Kodansha has come to America, and is scheduled to start releasing in September, though no titles have been announced yet.

Brigid over at MangaBlog was where I first read of it, and some of the comments made by others got me thinking, and thus lead to this post.

About the Manga

This is another I’m picking up part way through the series, and much like Cynical Orange I haven’t quite made my mind up yet. When I was reading the volume I was initially dubious about it, but by the end I was enjoying it.

About the Mangaka

Not a lot available on JiUn Yun sadly. She made her professional debut in 2000 in a manhwa competition, however she had already become famous in the non-pro circles.

About the Manga

I’m in two minds over this title, part of me hates it, and part of me likes it. The problem may lie in the fact I’m picking up volume four first, I’ll order volumes one through three and see how it goes from there.

Yen Plus Update!!

Finally the speculation has come to an end…sort of hehe

Kurt Hassler dropped me an email about the cost of the anthology in the UK. It’s going to retail for £3.99, which is freaking awesome!!

However there will be no subscription option for us, unless Yen decide to open the American subscription to us.
