You know how it is with us fans of manga comics and yet know nuts about the written Japanese word? Well, we’ve had to rely on the generous and long, hard labor put in by selfless otakus who have a proficiency on both English and Japanese to translate these manga and upload them, but the days of fan-translated manga could be over with a major Japanese book publisher, Shogakukan, planning to open an Online English Store which allows you to read your favorite manga in English on an official basis. Strangely enough, this online service is limited to only Japanese and US visitors which doesn’t really make much sense since manga is appreciated the world over.
