DMP his just started there Kickstrater on yet onther Tezuka title they wanted to do one more for kids this time so the obvous choice was Unico http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/digitalmanga/publish-osamu-tezukas-unico-in-english-in-full-col
but what will be special about this release is that it will be done in Full Color as the offical edition was printed in Japan but hasn't even been relased in Japan in 11 years and is Out of Print.
When i typed this the pledge is was already over 18,000 where there goal is 20,000 with 26 days to go which is almost recahed but if they reach that 20,000 soon they would start another kickster right away for another Tezuka title.

and of course if you pledge as much as 45 which is only 10 more than the book itself you get nice extra stuff (stickers,bonus art,games and more and with 75 you even get a exclusive Unico T-shirt that woudn't be in retail just like the other things and if you pledge more you get even more stuff.
Even if the pledge is already rerached it's goal when i will pledge i defenetly want the extra stuff now which i din't do with Barbara which i do regret now so i encourage everyone to pledge with this,this is the way to get Tezuka releases and nice extra stuff.

I had taken a guess at that next Tezuka title being Little Wansa, but they said it was close but not quite, so I'll put my second guess on either My Son Goku, Pipy or Yamataro Comes Back. This is exciting...

Not only that but when the amount hits 26,000 (soon) DMP will release yet another title, DMP your begging become my favourite company have you already pledged money F-Man ?
I first have to get money on my CC again wich may as well be the best thing to wait for a bit if there going to add even more to it later but i also haven't decided yet how much money i will pledge ?

And only 2,200 to go now it's moving along great !!!

Probaply not gonna make the last strech coal for Trition 47,000 needed even though i would have no reason for buying it no since it is the exact same edition the i already have in French but i would support any English Tezuka release regardless but it seems it's not gonna happen already unless DMP comes up with something.

It actually got up by much the last hours only less than 5,000 USD to go come on :hyo:
While DMP confirmed just now that from this point on they will take the money still necessary out of one of there other kickstarter projcts since it still got far over 40,000, and start yet another kickstarter to get that money back later on so you wil be able to pick up Triton of of the sea now in 2013 i'm sure.

Less than $2000 to go in 5 hours. Every little donation counts at this point! I suggest people on this site at least send $12 since you can get a copy of Atomcat with that amount. Here's the reward table.

Wow that was amazing. Everyone thought it had become hopeless and then bam $8,000 in one day.

I can't wait to see the day when we have this kind of excitement over Tezuka anime with subs getting funded.
