Dagnabit. My pre-order of v. 6 of the Pumpkin Scissors manga was just canceled, evidently because Del Rey has removed it from their publication schedule. Growl, mutter, mourn. I'd been hoping against hope that the translation would continue, but since it doesn't seem to be all that popular on this side of the pond ...

On the other hand, I also hear that Tokyopop will finally release the fourth and fifth Full Metal Panic light novels as a single volume next February. Yay! I'd given up on ever seeing any more of these, either, despite the popularity of the franchise. They're among the better written (and certainly among the better translated!) Japanese light novels I've read. Keeping my fingers crossed that the upcoming product retains the good qualities of its predecessors ...

ETA: Barebones Amazon listing for the latter!
