Tokyopop shuts down!

Great way to start my day.  I wake up to find that possibly the biggest manga publisher and distributor has shuttered it’s doors after years of business.  Apparently, this has been long coming though.  With Borders going under and they lost the licenses to a lot of their books, there was no way they were staying in business.  Goddamn sad really.  I’ll never forget their job they did with the Battle Royale manga.

Sigh of the times people. Sign of the times.  Read all the gory details here.
