Seriously, just get lost now...

From Tokyopop's facebook page:

Loyal Fans, we're very thrilled by your excitement but need to clarify: unfortunately we are not re-launching the manga - those properties have reverted to their owners and are amazingly difficult to get back. We’re launching an all new editorial TOKYOPOP newsletter about all things otaku and Asian pop-culture, powered ( Read more... )

Glad I'm not the only one getting annoyed by this.

Everytime I see an update from them on Facebook I keep thinking that they're gonna start publishing manga again, but the company's still dead. :/

The way this guy has mislead and continues to mislead readers is disgusting.

I would kinda laugh at the situation if they did that Hetalia "would-if" just to get a story started in a newsletter. 'And the fans reacted like this...'

Instantly.Used.

I've known about Levy's stunts for a while, so my annoyance is watered down. (It's like, "You again...? C'mon...")

If he did that the nerve of it would just be incredible. It wouldn't surprise me though.

Why do they still have licensing rights...? =_=;;
And yeah-- they did completely say that they were trying to republish the manga. I remember your post. D: How can they even begin to think that people would just forget? "Oh, yeah, it's been a few weeks-- how can they prove that it really wasn't a misunderstanding if we just say it is?" Is this their frame of mind? I didn't realize Tokyopop was like this (mostly because I never paid too much attention to the company itself...), but I'm not too upset they closed down anymore. They sound like jerks. -_-

They don't anymore, but they refused to let go of them for a while. 'Any last scraps of cash' and all that T_T.

There are just no words. There really, really aren't.

By this point in time does Stu levy not know that everyone hates him, or just doesn't care 0.0?
