    A lot of publishing company are now restructuring to avoid bankruptcy. Tokyopop did mention it wants to publish manga again. So, they must be hinting a-comeback or trying to restructure in its worst resource now. But I'm not a bit sad there because in truth, Tokyopop did have the worst english-translated manga. Scanlators are much better and you'd find missing/mis-interpreted dialogues so that it fits the U.S culture. Which is weird? If their doing something they can't understand, then add a culture explanation to it like scanlators - need they left it out and place a dialogue guessing the scene. Didn't like buying anymore because of poor (erroneous that is) quality. (^^,)
