Are you still licensing webcomics (like Chugworth?) If so I would like to see The Phoenix Requiem printed by Seven Seas :happyhappy:

That is, IF

I remember asking about this, and the response was "We have no plans at the time" (I think). Situation most likely could have changed.

Seriously? Man, I hope they changed their mind...

Spice and Wolf, if either the manga or the novels made it here (though both would be best!), I would be a very happy person (and,judging from the responses, I won't be the only one :happyhappy: ).

I'm a huge Fate/Stay Night fans, I personally find it to be one of the best series to come out in a long while. As you may know, there is both a manga and light novel of the series covering different parts of the story (the Light novel, Fate/Zero, tells the prequel to the VN/anime. The manga is an adaptation of the visual novel). I hope I'm not the only one who wishes to see a legit stateside release. Who's with me!

Reiterating mine from the thread with "Extreme Douchebaggery" (LOL Adam ^_^ )

I'd love to see Kuchibiru Tameiki Sakurairo
くちびるためいきさくらいろ
Kiss, Sigh, and Cherry Blossoms Pink licensed.
Wikipedia wrote:Kuchibiru Tameiki Sakurairo is a collection of seven one-shot manga chapters by the manga author Milk Morinaga. The first chapter was originally serialized in the Japanese shōjo yuri manga anthology magazine Yuri Shimai on June 28, 2003, published by Sun Magazine. Serialization continued in the magazine until chapter five on November 17, 2004, which was the last published issue of Yuri Shimai. The publication of new chapters was halted until July 18, 2005 when the sixth chapter was published in Yuri Shimai's sucessor Comic Yuri Hime, published by Ichijinsha. The seventh and final chapter was published on October 18, 2005. The chapters were later collected into a single bound volume which went on sale on January 18, 2006.

I think it'd be a great addition ^__^

Also... Simoun and Blue Drop would be complete and total win....

I don't think anyone currently has the rights to translate it.
No foreign company can get the rights to any form of Sailor Moon. Sorry to say it, but don't expect the manga, anime (or musicals or whatever) to appear outside of Japan anytime soon (if ever). The series is in rights hell.
