ICv2’s site, linked below, has an article about the titles that TokyoPop had rights to produce. TokyoPop announced that rights of the manga titles they had will revert back to the Japanese owners. This will allow the owners to try to find another U.S. publishing house or the series will stop publication in the U.S. Hopefully the titles will find a home somewhere since Viz, Yen Press, Del Rey, Dark Horse and other smaller publshers that could pick up some of these titles.
