Digital Manga (http://www.emanga.com/), which has co-published a number of highly successful manga titles with Dark Horse (including Trigun and Hellsing), as well as a line of "how-to-draw manga" books with Watson-Guptil, is planning to publish the IWGP manga series (http://www.emanga.com/dmp/) on its own this summer

Ikebukuro West Gate Park

Based on the phenomenally popular live action Japanese television series, Ikebukuro West Gate Park is a very hip urban drama that takes place in Tokyo's trendy district of Ikebukuro, focusing around the troublesome Makoto. Filled with all the big city thrills and ills, involving sex, drugs, murder, and everything one can imagine blended with a touch of humor, this is a must-read series for all fans of Japanese manga and pop culture.

I live 18 minutes from Ikebukuro. I wouldn't call it trendy.......Not compared with Shinjuku, Harajuku, the Ginza or Shibuya. But there is plenty of sex, drugs and murder. I guess some people like it. Particularly all the American anime geeks arriving for tomorrows anime convention at Sunshine City :rolleyes:

Anyone in Japan, avoid Ikebukuro for the next 3 days.
