FMA Is Just That Awesome

[kirarakim]

So apparently the last chapter of FMA was so popular that demand was not met. The issue ended up being sold out faster than anticipated and fans were complaining they could not get a copy. So Square Enix is reprinting the chapter in the September Issue (August 2010)

It Says It All HereNow I am extra happy I pre-ordered that Shounen Gangan. I

This might have happened before but I don't think it is a common thing. In this case I think it was a combination of the series popularity and Square Enix not really preparing well ahead of time with the number of issues they would need. I am guesisng they probably printed the same amount they always printed and not necessarily taking into account this was the last issue and there might be higher demand.

That's kind of neat, actually. Kind of lame for all of the people who haven't been able to read it yet, but I feel cool to be a part of a series this awesome.

I'm super glad I preordered mine too.

Yeah I feel bad for all the people who didn't get a copy. I mean even fans from Japan are having trouble getting the issue. The thing is though even though they are reprinting the chapter it's probably not going to have the same cover or the clock as the prize so those fans still miss out.

From what I am hearing the issue sold out so fast that even people who preordered a week before the issue was supposed to come out could not get the issue. Apparently Japanese fans were going from store to store on the day it was supposed to come out and were not able to get an issue.

I am really hoping for the Kanzenban editions to come out but I am hoping they don't come out right away because like I said before I need a job first. I know if they do come out right away I won't be able to wait to buy them. XD
