Uhmmmmmm..... Yea. Togainu No Chi (the manga) got licensed. By Tokyopop. What the hell. Why couldn't a publisher that ACTUALLY EDITS THEIR WORK (and finishes their series) get it? And one that doesn't molest character names? TP jerks their fans around so hard and I don't want to be waiting 16 months in between releases, never knowing if it's even going to come out at all.
Though I must say, I'm excited. This will be pretty much the first violent seme x seme shounen-ai / yaoi manga to come out here, because most everything else they've translated has been fluff (except Ai No Kusabi, which is awful, and a novel besides). Which makes me wary at the same time, because it may completely bomb and we'll get one volume before TP drops it. Or it will be huge and I hate it when my fandoms and/or fetishes get huge. Then again, I won't say no to more violent seme x seme yaoi hitting the American market, even if it means I have to share. I don't know though...I would think it would have been big here by now if it was going to. I don't know all that many people who like their yaoi that way (other than my FList, because I know you're all pervs like me)
Ugh. Very mixed feelings about this. I wonder when it's coming out?
BUT.....MAYBE IF THE MANGA DOES WELL HERE, SOMEONE WILL PICK UP THE GAME AND WE CAN FINALLY GET IT IN ENGLISH???? Though it would probably be the PS2 version, due to its lack of stockholm syndrome and necrophilia.
And it's lack of shirtless Gunzi. Damnit.
