Default Re: Tokyopop to split into two companies.

I don't have any firm info on which titles are on the unfortunate end of this restructuring, and even the editors who are left at TOKYOPOP probably won't find out until tomorrow. But I'll make a few educated guesses (on the titles mentioned in this thread).

Safe:
Fruits Basket
.hack//XXXX
.hack//G.U.+
D.N.Angel
Karin (Chibi Vampire)
Kingdom Hearts II
CLAMP no Kiseki (book 12 is done, but absolutely no hope of the bonus figures or board)

Probably safe:
Karin novels
Battle Vixens
Rave Master
Rose Hip Rose
Tokko

Guessing safe:
Battle Club
Kyou Kara Maoh (manga)
GTO: The Early Years

Probably not safe:
Chronicles of the Cursed Sword
Rebirth (having had a vol. 1-3 omnibus is no guarantee; CotCS had one as well)
Queen's Knight
Magic Moon

Guessing not safe:
Atelier Marie and Elie Zarlburg Alchemist
Boys Be
Strawberry Marshmallow
Shrine of the Morning Mist
Sakura Taisen
Kindaichi

That's all I'm willing to speculate on, and even then I'm not sure it's wise. I would hope for more concrete word later in the week, but you may only end up finding out through Diamond cancellations...

I've been collecting Rebirth and Strawberry Marshmallow myself and would be very sad to see them halted.
