I know that many of Tokyopop's projects are on hold/delayed or done altogether either because of the creator (Under the Glass Moon), the japanese/korean publisher (Legal Drug), or Tokyopop itself. Since many of the manga pages do not show the grayed out title indicating a future release(Tarot Cafe, Candidate for Goddess, Lagoon Engine etc.), it is impossible to figure out whether these series will actually be continued. In particular, it would be wonderful to receive assurances that series that already have foreign releases (Tarot Cafe v.5) will continue to be released here.
Also, for productions in limbo such as the DN Angel and Chobits artbooks, the Clover box set, etc., could you perhaps state whether or not you plan to actually release these titles? Seeing the release date shift forward by a whole year for Feder on Amazon was frustrating to say the least. If you never plan to release these titles, it will greatly affect what people buy (I, for example, would buy the Clover volumes individually, and buy imported artbooks. I don't wish to buy the imported artbooks if they're going to be ultimately translated, or Clover volumes if they'll be released as a box set!). Thanks, and sorry for the stream of consciousness!
