A few years ago, when thdy announced their omnibus of Shaman King, they expressed interest in performing other license rescues.

Another day of people complaining about this series not being in English despite them not doing anything to let publishers know there's a demand 😔

BE VOCAL. TAG PUBLISHERS. EVERY manga publisher I have spoken with has said publishers pay attention to social media.

Hey @kodamatales.bsky.social have you heard of Konjiki no Gash!! ?

The English license has been up for grabs on Makoto Raiku's Birgden Board website.

It has been licensed in Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Italian!

But we need this series back in English! For your consideration 🙇🏻‍♂️

They did a great job! As much as I would prefer a different name, the Italian version does still look fantastic!
