Hmm, nothing had really caught my eye before but this might make me sign up.

I wonder if Kodansha were bugged about releasing those part done series or if J-Manga realised their was an oportunity to bring out something people want but Kodansha didnt think was viable to print.

Yeah, why not ? It's free to sign up anyway, as you only pay for what you'd like to read.

Anyway, that's a fair point. I know I'd pay to be able to read the end of series Dark Horse started releasing but never bothered completing, such as Seraphic Feather and Ghosttalkers' Daydream

It's Definitely awesome news, and that's quite an awesome haul of titles for firsts.

Definitely buying School Rumble, I might possibly try out the first volumes of Pastel and CODE:BREAKER too.

On the newsletter, for the new releases on Tuesday there are Four Top Secret titles to be unveiled??
