I was less than ecstatic to see that the first manga offering for the Wii would bePrincess Ai Monogotari, a series co-created by Courtney Love, as that type of thing just isn’t my cup of tea. Leiji Matsumoto is more my thing, thanks to a little show calledSpace Battleship Yamatothat made a big impact on me way back in the early eighties, and his new manga is on the way to the Wii on both Japanese AND English!
Kotakureports that the series is calledOut of Galaxy Koshikaand goes on sale April 14th. LikePrincess Ai Monogotari, it will have Japanese and English text options and retails for 500 points for the first chapter and 200 for each chapter afterwards. Of course, you’ll need a Japanese Wii to get your hands on it. Personally I prefer to read scans of manga until it is released in the US (or if it ever is), so I’m not sure I would use this service even if it was available on my Wii. Would you?
