Yotsuba&!

[Buzz Dixon]

I love this series. I was under the impression there were at least five volumes in Japan and that it was still on going. Does anybody know if there will be more volumes released in the U.S.?

[Ryan K]

How many have been released in the US? I read the first 3 and really enjoyed them. But I don't think I've seen any more.

ADV is having financial problems it seems.
The only manga I see them releasing at the moment is Cromartie.

ADV, where is Gunslinger Girl? It's been almost two years I think since volume 3 released.

[Buzz Dixon]

I think there are only 3 volumes in the U.S. so far. Yeah, I heard about ADV's problems -- which is peculiar since they seem to be doing so well with their anime.

BTW, is there a YOTSUBA&! anime?

[Hikari Tsukishiro]

Nope. None exists.

Thye're doing okay now, and have many titles maintaining regular schedules, while reviving older series on occasion [ie--- Orphen, which is now finished]

Yotsuba& is one of ADV's most popular series, so I'm surprised more volumes haven't come out... the last volume came out about a year ago. It strikes me that it's probably something with the licensor

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YOTSUBA%26%21 The Wikipedia entry says it might be relaunched in 2007 [though it's best to take Wikipedia w/a grain of salt, as always]

yeah, this sucks. I loves Azumanga D, and now it seems like it's been years since the last Yotsuba&!. :(

[mgs]

umm...so apparently, I don't even have to wait anymore for the english manga to come out? O.O




Edit: oops, sorry about that. Thanks for the heads up Xenos! ;) Nothing to see here, please move along.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh.. Those types of links aren't allowed on the forums. PMs.. maaaybe. But it is explicitly against board rules to post them.

Meanwhile, ADV released Volume 5 (http://www.amazon.com/Yotsuba-5-Kiyohiko-Azuma/dp/1413903495) in English last October. Still waiting for Vol 6 it seems. Amazon listed the expected date as February. Don't know what the hold up is.

Also, through my comic shop and Diamond, I have gotten the Yotsuba and Danbo / Carbo (cardboard robot) Revoltech line figures. And, yes, Danbo has light up eyes.
