User blog:Tsuru23/ULTRAMAN MANGA Released in North America!

Hey guys.

So, following the announcement viz made back in... Febuary?

The 2011 Ultraman Manga, after four years, is now available for purchase for western fans.

On Amazon you can purhcase an eBook for your kindle or smart device for $8.99, or buy a paperback copy for $6.49.

Meanwhile, Barnes and Noble is offering $9.38 for paperback copy and $5.48 for digital purchase.

Whichever service you use, I recommend buying a digital copy, especially for english-speaking fans overseas.

Needless to say, once the subsequent chapters come out, we'll finally have 'official' names for all of the characters appearing in the books, so we can look forward to that.

Be sure to show your support!

Big thanks to user OnGoji from CKMscans, who helped a great deal in translating the manga thus far. It let us read the manga and know just how awesome it was without waiting all this time.
