Sadly I have to agree =/

I know, I didn't think they would either. Well, maybe she ran out of subjects after all those years? ^^"

Awww, I wonder why they decided to cancel the column all of a sudden? :( Maybe it has something to do with their busy schedule...if they are planning climaxes for two series, managing Kobato, and thinking about restarting X/1999 and Gouhou Drug that IS a lot of have on their plate.

I am happy they are going to be compiled into a book as well, but part of me hopes if her schedule frees up, she'll return to a column at some point.

I noticed that several columns in Newtype had their final installment in this issue. It wasn't just Satsuki's. So I would say it was Newtype's decision, not hers. I guess they must be renewing that corner.

Ahhhh, I see. Yes, if there were a bunch of columns drawing to a close, it definitely sounds like they were making space for something else.
