Poor JManga... I always wondered what kind of numbers their bestsellers got, since SoreMachi frequently ended up on the list, yet I didn't hear many people talking about it. Viz at least has more mainstream titles and recognition. And print, of course-digital is a bonus on top of that.

I have to read the first volume of Mme Joker! I bought that fairly early on, one of several books I bought on JM and never read.

Have a happy Easter!! Enjoy your break week :)

They did try for almost 2 years, and I did hope they would last. I don't suppose you'd heard the news before the sudden email?

Thanks, and Happy Easter to you and yours.

Nope, the news came just as suddenly to us as to anyone else! Maybe I could have picked up on hints, as I hadn't heard of any new assignments for a month or two before, but there were other quiet spells in the past, and they still hadn't released the last three books I lettered. (never will now... sad!)

Thank you!
