AGGGHHHH!!!!!!!

Why so long?! That's 8 months, not 6!

This is aggravating, but here is the cover image for "Sans Angel" (what does that mean?!). I'm glad that I know now, though!

According to Oxford Dictionary, sans is an archaic word meaning without.

Archaic, archaic... It's the every-day word to mean without in french, you know...

And I think you meant 2010, not 2008, in your topic ?

Fixed, thanks the notification. =)

American fans are mad at all of Alita's absences in recent volumes, and the little meat story-wise that has been so prevalent every other volume. I don't think this one will be taken terribly well . . . .

I just want the series to be completed by Viz and not cut off due to a lack of sales!

In French, indeed, but in English it is archaic. Besides, Oxford Dictionary (as well as American Heritage) says that, not I.

If it really is officially going to be adapted into an Event Film by Mr. I-Can't-Make-A-Movie-With-Less-Cash-Than-It-Takes-To-Fund-A-Large-Municipality-For-A-Year.... Viz will have it in every chain bookstore, library, and comic shop in existance. Mark my words.
I hate to say it but this may be the reason it's still been translated up until now. (Though I think I remember volume 12 charting #1 on the New York Times list of Manga releases the week it hit stores, for whatever that's worth.)

And while I'm complaining I think "Sans Angel" is a great name for that volume. It was sans-"Angel", sans-Sechs, sans-Nova, sans pretty much any recurring character except for the Space Karate Cyphers, except for that depressingly short sequence with Zekka at the tail end of it. (Cool shot of him on the cherry tree though. Very BAA vol 9.)

I was thinking about that; did VIz Media wait to hear what the fate of Battle Angel would be to announce Vol 13? Because it was only a 4 month wait for 11, then 6 for 12, and it was only just posted on the internet for 13 being released after 8 months.

I hope LO continues!
