Why would you want 7 Seeds to be licensed while we're getting weekly scanlated updates? Do you want to wait 3-4+ years before reading any more of it?

Way to miss the point.

One of the reasons why people want their mangas to be licensed is that they can purchase the mangas for their own manga collection instead of just reading them from the internet or their computers. Purchasing the manga is also a sign of respect/appreciation for the mangaka's works. ^^

This times 1000.
I just buy it untranslated but if I'm super interested, I'll get it in English, too.
Also, I already got my wish Chi's Sweet Home

I'm a fan of Im Dal-Young so it'd be awesome to see more of his titles licensed.
I'm not a huge fan of Kurokami and Zero, which seems to be the only ones licensed, but I like most of this other series.
It'd be cool if another company picks up Unbalance x2
But not if they're licensed by Tokyopop. Fuck you for licensing Aflame and doing nothing with it. Bastards.

*shrug* I guess I just value being able to read something now rather than far in the indeterminate future. Collecting is fine, but reading is better. With their general track record it's hard to trust localisation companies to get their shit together and release at a reasonable rate.

it would be sad if your favorite mangaka has to look for a new job because everyone just read his stories online and didn´t purchase them. It´s like this: Read manga online -> check which mangas got licensed -> by at least one volume of you favorite manga when they are released in your country ->? -> PROFIT
i think they should license hetalia. good for education and is funny

Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer, I wish... Probably it won't cuz it already ended a while ago...
Then Psyren, which is officially licensed but the first volume keeps being pushed back. I don't even know if they intend on publishing the first volume in english anymore
Id would be awesome as well but it's a manhwa and I don't think manhwas are licensed (?). Same goes for The Breaker.
And last but not least Onani Master Kurosawa

Hetalia is actually licensed- 2 volumes are out in English so far. :3
@Aikarano- while I do like occasionally reading scans, having a physical collection is really great. I just enjoy it more when I can actually own the books and read them in bed or in the bath or...wherever. While I'm aware of Kindle and e-readers, I think it kinda kills the charm for me. :<

Oh! I didn't know that, sorry! xP
And it's a huge bestseller here, I think right now both volumes are on the bestseller list.
