What is going on with VB Rose?

Many people have been asking me questions about VB Rose recently, even though I put up an explanation in the last chapter I released. I actually do write about important things there...


Tokyopop has been closed down, which means that VB Rose has been dropped as a license in the US. Thus, volumes 13 and 14 remain unpublished in the US. I cannot get access to them ever. They will need to be translated from their original language (Japanese). There are also Chinese scans available that I could translate, but at the moment I'm much too busy to attempt that. I believe that there is a group willing to eventually translate VB Rose. It will eventually be translated, but do not expect the same rapid releases that have been happening.

Vol. 12 is still to be scanned. I will get it as soon as I can, and scan it, but sitting down and scanning 200 pages is not an easy task, so also do not anticipate this to happen very quickly.

In short, please be patient (and I would appreciate it if you did stop sending me emails as well).

  8. Other who were also scanning v.b.rose, there were other 3, one dropped, other stopped it and one only scanned one chapter nothing else, I rely on kat scans more than others, I will wait, but because of tokyopop being dropped why does it affect v.b.rose....I hope you can find vol 13 and 14 soon

  9. Tokyopop dropping VB Rose means that there are no English language books of VB Rose, which means that all of the books must undergo the slow process of being translated. I hope this helps explain!
