Actually the japanese version is supposed to be up to volume 19, so
officially it's up to volume 18. Dark Horse Comics is only up to the 11 or
12 volume from what I could see the last time I checked, and yes DH has
always been behind in completed volumes.

Chances are it won't show in the US theaters unless it gets ALOT of demand
from the public, but even then we may have to wait anywhere from 6 months to
2 years for subtitling/dubbing, then again they might just skip on showing
it in theaters and just release it on vidio outright, I do hope that they do
like they did with that movie, Black Mask(which I think was chinese or from
Hong Kong, somewhere around there), dub it and release it in theaters.

Hmm, I couldn't tell you much about that.... I don't recall there being an
official faverate goddes poll on this ML since I've been here, (well since
I've been here under D_Goens2 ID, anyway).
