Yes and Yes!
On Monday, we selected 2 winners for eManga.com promo. (You can read about it here.) Congratulations!
Sorry guys… I forgot to blog about Youka Nitta yesterday… Otodama (音霊 オトダマ) - Airisu blogged/asked me “did you like Otodama?” …. the answer is “YESSSSSS! and I LOOOOOOOOOVED IT!” … and Digital Manga will be publishing this book in February 2010, under DokiDoki imprint!!! Yaaaaay! I’m so excited! I love love love her artwork. I think it’s brilliant! (I don’t want to give you too much away…) it’s a crime-solving-murder-mystery-suspense-drama story. I can totally see this book turned into a TV series or something. Can I be a bit selfish and mention a little con? The dialogue was a bit too technical - lots of police talk and $10 lawyer words (if you know what I mean…) and was a bit difficult to understand. Perhaps she did that to keep the story real! Anyways, I can’t wait for the English version of this manga - and trust me, you won’t be dissappointed! This is so read-worthy! Not to mention plenty of hot men in page after page!
Today is the move-in day for AX2009! Pallets of boxes are finally out of the office! Now I can actually see everyone’s cubicles now! There’s only 3 of us in the office today - everyone else is at the site setting up! My boss is gone too! So 3 of us are planning on a lazy work day today! I’m about to go out on a Starbucks run! Shhhhh… don’t tell anyone!

Hi 801-chan,
Thanks for answering my question.
I heard about its licensing but didn’t know about the release date! Thanks for the fantastic news! Next February seems so far away… But it will be definitely worth waiting for. ^^
Have a great time at AX2009! I hope you’ll share your impressions & stories later on.

So does this mean Youka Nitta sensei will continue working on Otodama series. I love all her work by the way. Can we ask 801 Media / DMP work w/ her Japanese publisher / agent to have her conclude Secret of the Diplomacy in volume 2 also please? Ever since I heard she will be concluding Harudaki series soon - I am fearful she will leave that one unfinished
Please share pics from the AX2009!
