Just thought I would let anyone waiting for BAALO 12 in English, it's in stock at http://www.Justmanga.com . And it's only $8.29, $16.79 after USPS Priority shipping.

I really hope they didn't mutilate the story by censoring the dialogue too badly like they have been doing lately (Viz media, that is).

I find it funny that for the hardcover editions, they never released 7, 8 or 9 of LO, and they don't look like they will be releasing 12 either. I have all the other ones! Why can't they complete the series?!

Anyway, just thought I would let everyone know =)

Nice. Time soon for me to order it

Angel Redux?
man, they are exaggerating.

The Borders Book store near my job has this series so I'm pretty sure it'll be there next week when it comes out.

It's great that Viz translates these books, but I swear; the guy that comes up with the name of these has got to be using the dartboard with stupid names approach.

I just read mine. Loved it to death!!!

The artwork in this volume is fantastic! I love Alita's new look, especially the trench coat and tail

The story was fascinating. I can't wait to see what Super Nova does with Tzyk the Brute's brain on Mars! I picked up so much more from this volume than reading it online!

That's what I love about this series. It doesn't matter how many time you read it, you can always find something new every time you read. A very rare quality anymore.

I ordered a copy from thebookdepository, hasnt arrived yet.

From VIZ.

Battle Angel Alita: Last Order, Vol. 12 Angel Redux

This time, Alita returns in an unprecedented form (Check out this volume's cover for details!) it seems no one can touch--not even Super Nova! Then Agi Mbadi, the dictator of Ketheres, goes on the offensive. If he cancels the Z.O.T.T. for "safety reasons," will Alita's dream of independence for Tiphares and the Scrapyard be crushed forever?

Just as Victor's Olde English brought so much more to the character in the official version, Zekka's style of speaking is much more consistent.
I can't help hearing his voice as Vin Diesel's.

Thanks to everyone who's worked on the scanlations, I doubt I'd survive the 6 month wait without them!
