...*AND* they also just announced licenses for the Boku dake ga Inai Machi (a.k.a. ERASED)-- which, BTW, is fantastic, and *LEAGUES* better than the anime!!-- and Bungou Stray Dogs manga, too!!

[MangaRocks!]

Continuing the glorious saga of "Yen Press Owns My Wallet And I Give It To Them Gladly" , now they've licensed the Sound! Euphonium novels (among other things)!

[MangaRocks!]

Yep, Yen Press strikes again-- this time with the excellent Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria (a.k.a. The Empty Box And The Zeroth Maria / HakoMari novels!!

If you haven't heard of them before (or would just like to know why this is a great acquisition), you can read my review of this 7-volume series in this post.

For once I'm *not* posting about Yen Press, LOL-- this time it's Seven Seas, who just licensed Satoshi Mizukami's masterpiece Spirit Circle!!

[MangaRocks!]

[MangaRocks!]

Yet again, Yen Press owns my wallet: They just licensed the ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Dept. and One Week Friends manga series (among other things)!

[MangaRocks!]

Seven Seas just licensed the excellent romantic comedy Ojojojo!

(EDIT:) Plus, Yen Press finally licensed Fruits Basket Another!

Actually not a licensing announcement this time, but rather a new series announcement-- and one I would have never expected (this was definitely a pleasant surprise):

Muhyo & Roji's Bureau Of Supernatural Investigation is getting a sequel!

[MangaRocks!]

Vertical licensed After The Rain (a.k.a. Koi wa Ameagari no You ni)...
