With all of the economic issues facing our manga publishers I was somewhat worried what was going on with the release of the fifth volume of breath by Yaoi Generation. The book had a release date for December 2009. But when December came and went (along with January and February) with no word from the publisher. I feared the worst and decided to contact them to find out what information they would share with me. It sounds like I worried for nothing (PHEW!). This isn't "official" by any means but I want to share this info with those who were worried about their upper body strength because of the cliffhanger ending (lame joke, sorry). It seems that the printer that they used for the first four books has been one of the casualties of the poor economy and they had to hunt for a new one. It also seems that the domestic companies they checked with turned it down due to the fact that this is a hard yaoi title. I guess they had to find a printer overseas to handle the work and because of that they had to extend the release date. As soon as the proofs are approved they'll start on getting these books to us. Look for the opportunity to possibly pre-order at their website by the end of this month or beginning of next. Cross your fingers that everything will fall into place and thanks Yaoi Gen for responding so quickly! That's why I love ya!
