Manga the week of 6/29

[seangaffney]

More Tokyopop stragglers... and not much else. Which is annoying, as I suspect it means Viz blitz and Kodansha at the same time.

DARK HORSE:
Oh My Goddess Vol. 18. Seinen. Kodansha, serialized in Afternoon since 1988.

DIGITAL MANGA PUBLISHING:
Moon and Blood. Shoujo? Seems to be exclusive to DMP.

TOKYOPOP:
AiON Vol. 3. Shonen. Kadokawa

Happy Cafe #8 is on its way to me. Thank you for your alert last week :) and I'm ordering The Stellar #3, too.
Dare I hope to see Maid Sama #9 in print in English?

I know Happy Cafe 8 and Stellar Six 3 were once scheduled for release May 10 (according to my calendar, which got its info from Amazon)- I think that was right around when TP ceased all activity. So I don't have much hope of their next-month titles (Maid Sama, Hetalia, Clean Freak...) coming out. But I didn't have hope of these releases coming out either, and they did! (apparently. Badtz, where did you order from? Midtown's site lists the titles I want as out of stock. I'm not too familiar with my local comic store(s?), but maybe I need to introduce myself to them?)

I ordered both from Midtown HC 8 last week and Stellar 3 today after seeing this post.
I'm not familiar with my local comic stores, either, but if I see either by chance - I plan to stop by one to check it out this weekend, I'll let you know. If I remember correctly, Maid sama was scheduled for may 31 ;) but yeah, 3 weeks in a row is too much to hope for!
I've just looked, Discount comic book service: http://www.dcbservice.com has it listed for $7.14. Navigating the site is tricky, first you need to click on "Trade Paperbacks on the left column, then click on "Others", you'll see "Ape" from publisher dropdown, select Tokyopop, then scroll down to H for Happy Cafe 8. I hope it makes sense. Let me know if you can't find it or it doesn't work for you.
Sorry for the long reply and hijack the post.
