It seems like it hasnt been released in any other country before, only Japan and Spain, but I cant believe it! Here you've got pics and info about it: http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/71sGTovrhIL._SL500_.j pg http://www.karuishian.com/catalog/images/bookimage/1209011 7.jpg http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/41ot7qJDZeL._SL500_A A300_.jpg http://www.listadomanga.es/coleccion.php?id=1243 The complete series is only 3 tankobon, but in spain there was published only the first one using the american comic book format, then it was cancelled. I would like to know if there was released on others countries. Does anyone knows anything about it?

The fact that I'm Italian and I know it hasn't been published in Italy despite the Spanish version being published by Planeta De Agostini, which is a joint-venture Spanish-Italian publisher, further increase my suspicions. Btw you say it was cancelled in Spain after one volume but here and here and here there are volumes 2, 3 and 5 (it appears they're 5 volumes), are you sure? ________________ What I like in Trivial Pursuit style.

Here in spain, 5 comic books of that serie were 1 tankobon, the first one. I'm gonna scan the comic books I've got, and I'm gonna try get the japanesse tankobons. I want that series back. It was very funny
