Kodansha Coming to United States



At least according to ICv2.com's reading of the Nikkei wire. This went from "you crazy" to "although you know, that sort of makes sense" to "Oh yeah, that's totally true" since the rumor was all the Internet rage a few weeks back, so it's mostly been a matter of it slipping in some official capacity. The friendly non-denials David Welsh got seemed to indicate something was up pretty early on, at least to me. All hail the Ancient Ones. I imagine David will have something in terms of analysis at some point.

Dallas Middaugh notes that Del Rey will indeed continue licensing manga and is now working on its 2010 slate. This fact was previously used as a denial of the rumor, although as I pointed out at the time, a company can certainly publish some stuff and license other stuff.
