Yen press. You are my number one favorite manga company as of now. I’m happy you licensed K-On and Bungaku Shoujo. If there is any novel I sincerely wish that you would license and bring to the U.S, that would be…

SHOUNEN ONMYOUJI!!!!!

PLEASE BRING THIS NOVEL SERIES TO THE US!!!

K-On!, Bungaku Shoujo, and Haruhi-chan?! Really? I love you, Yen Press! I didn’t think we would get an English adaptation of K-ON so early, too! My manga shelves are practically filled with Yen’s releases. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the licenses and hard work. Thank you!

@T1 Yeah…I already like way Bungaku Shoujo’s cover as is, but the question is, that if the Spice & Wolf light novels faired well becaause it wasn’t in the manga section, then I just wonder which section of the bookstore will Bungaku Shoujo be placed in, because the instant thought that you get from looking at a light novel is that it just has more manga inside. I dont know if it was a good idea or not to change the Spice & Wolf’s cover, but just hoping that the 2nd volume of Spice and Wolf stays in a different section then manga section to help sales, with its original cover.

@Sekai14: I second mimi in the critism. We don’t want to settle with something better than Tokyopoop, we want to have something that’s better than most of the companies out there releasing manga/manhua/manwha. I hope you agree with us on that point. I agree that Yen does a great job but when they can be better…why not? Critism if it’s right on the spot is something you take and make better. I don’t think that mimi who probably buys a lot from Yen Press would want to trash them down so they can close the shop or get worse..since that would affect the stuff she/he is buying from Yen press.

@lia: I don’t think they are allowed to use the ADV translation of Yotsuba since that would probably end in court about copyright/plagarism/etc.

@Yen press: Don’t do a “Spice and Wolf” on us again with “Bungaku Shoujo”. I want to buy “Bungaku Shoujo” like I wanted to buy “Spice and Wolf”, the only thing that will stop me from buying it is if the cover is changed again….and she’s a nakid loli with a book covering her *****…since you people seem to like that kind of covers…….no offensive meant, probably.

Wow! I’m really excited about Haruhi-chan and K-ON! But… as a few people earlier mentioned you should translate Durarara! and Baccano! They’re both so awsome and deserve a proper translation, one that Yen Press can give.
