OMG!!!! I'm sure it's everywhere on my flist already but I'm so in love with Tokyopop right now!!!!

They've got Love Mode coming to the U.S.

*spazzes like the fangirl she is*

They've liscenced Love Mode, Earthian, and another yaoi-looking one under a new publishing name "Blu"

I know Tokyopop said they'd never do anything, like, harder than

Uwaaaaaaaaaaa, Love Mode :DDDDDDD

*loves on Love Mode*

*not loves on first Love Mode drama CD, but hilarity at least 'cause though the almighty Mits is in it, he can't act the teenage uke to save his life*

[vadalia]

Heh, teenage ukes are the best though!

[yaoi_slut]

Yeah I was looking at that all happy like, especially about Earthian.

There's another BL one they licensed called Off*Beat... So there's a fourth to expect. Yay.

We're really lucking out as far as yaoi lately.

But just a question, why did you delete your last entry?

And also.... read my story- biznatch!!!! Or I'll eat your nose! Cause I don't even talk to you or anything at all anymore and you make me cry.

[yaoi_slut]

Btw where'd you get those links? Cause they aren't working. >.>;;

[vadalia]

Yay! I can't wait!

Heh, I deleted it because I recieved some books to relieve my boredom and I didn't want to look like a spam whore ^_^

Ok! I'll go read it soon! (after I send out an e-mail)

And as for the links not working... the pages have been taken off tokyopop's website. I hope they're just, maybe, making an entirely different section for the harder manga they're putting out under the Blu label. Either way, I'm e-mailing someone from TP about it right now.

[tigerzahn]

Teh links don't like meh. >.<;;

[vadalia]

Hmm... the pages have been taken off tokyopop's website. I hope they're just, maybe, making an entirely different section for the harder manga they're putting out under the Blu label. Either way, I'm e-mailing someone from TP about it right now!

[tigerzahn]

Ah...Okies. ^^

[shiva_chan]

OMG your icon~~~~~~

*can now die blissfully happy as she has gazed upon the utter wonderful genius cuteness of Leon*

Thank you! ^___^

[shiva_chan]

Yay~~~ Good to know that Tokyopop knows how to copy others. ^^;;

Though really... wasn't BeBeautiful the first? But then... look how good THAT became. >.>

Though Tokyopop has a bigger following than CPM... so perhaps they will do better. However, I still firmly believe that DMP will be the champion. Even though they release manga that no one has ever heard of before. That just makes me even happier.

Now I have to remember... you should know... what publishing group was releasing Seimaden??

[vadalia]

I'm just glad that they got Love Mode, since none of the other people would touch it because of the ages.

Be Beautiful was good and they liscened some really good titles. However, apparently they'd had to change printers or distributors or something and that's why there's been all these delays.

I don't actually like DMP that much (hopefully the next wave of titles will appease me) I don't like the size or dust jackets and OtRFK was the only title of their's that I liked.

CMX, which is a off-shoot of Vertigo comics, liscened that one, I believe.

[shiva_chan]

I really love DMP. Maybe the size annoys me, to some extent, but really, they're so nice! The translations are excellent, and almost flawless. And they're not picking up the huge titles one thinks of when they think of yaoi manga in the US.

I REALLY want them to pick up Stigma, or Kaze to Ki no Uta... or Loveless... though Loveless may have an age issue (12 year old with university student?) but the 12 year old's the seme! So it's not shota. ^^;;

Well, CPM is all but folding their manga/anime route, as they just don't have the influence and the money to keep it up, I believe. Everything's going into clearance it seems... and they may just be sticking with their (BAD) porn. I figured that BeBeautiful was folding as well...

CMX??? Noooo~~~ Gah... *isn't a fan of CMX at all*

I'll still buy it however... as it's Seimaden, which is a beautiful, beautiful story.

[vadalia]

But I like huge titles!! That way I know if I'm gonna like 'em before I get 'em! To be fair, I would have bought them anyway, but I really didn't like Passion, Desire, or Selfish Love (though that one was BB

Earthian.... *purrs*
