Viz is re-releasing Pokemon Adventures!

I wonder why they did not decide to release the volume earlier in 2009 since the first 7 volumes of the Pokemon Special were already translate by Viz.

I believe that VIZ didn't want to take the risk earlier in the year because of holidays. The summer time would be ideal because kids are out of school and have an opportunity to watch tv more often.
 
Huh watch TV? Isn't Pokemon Special a manga that's portable and therefore can be read most of the time?
 
Yeah, TV is where they would probably advertise it. There are so many ads Cartoon Network... If they put a Pokespecial ad, kids will be like, "Pokemon? Momma buy it!" Even if they don't know what Pokespecial is, they may just buy it because it has the word Pokemon on it.
Do you think they will change the covers?
 
YES!!!*Pulls out life savings* I'm gonna buy ever volume I can! WOOT! WOOT!
=DDDDDDD
 
Hopefully this time sales will skyrocket and it will become popular enough that they will continue to jhoto and hoenn. But i doubt it as pokemon advertised items on tv if one amount of wrong is in them will get stopped. I can see angry mothers rioting due to the oh so famous pokeboob scene and if later made gold will be there main target. Im telling you thats going to happen IF it goes passed kanto. Hopefully it will.
 
My personal concern is if they learned from their mistake and corrected Green's (I repeat, GREEN, that guy, the Gary-ish fellow) name from "Blue". If they had, I'll consider buying it myself.
 
Aah, I'm excited! Amazon never delivers my copies of these, so I'll just go get them on my own now. I'm really hoping sales do well enough to encourage VIZ to bring the rest of the series over. It would be great to have some hard copies to tote around. <3

It's unlikely for PokeSupe to be promoted on TV; ads for books from best-selling mainstream authors are uncommon, so one for a comic reprint is illogical. Print ads, however, wouldn't surprise me if they start showing up closer to the release date/shortly there after.
 
.. Great just.. awesome great.

WHY FOR GOD'S SAKE DON'T I LIVE IN THE STATES?!

-slaps, rolls, drools, cries, dies- Ah well, lucky for you guys..
 
^Really? I've never liked living in the U.S.
I suggest to anyone who wants to buy them off Amazon that they do it at the first oprotunity(sp) they get because I told everyone in my school who likes pokemon or manga that it's selling on Amazon and about 500 kids are now swarming Amazon trying to get it =)
 
Wow, this is great news for you guys. Make sure you that you buy hundreds each so you can create high sales which may make them continue past Volume 7, but I wonder. It may even reach England, but by the time they get released I would have almost finished my collection, one hopes that is.

It wasn't a mistake. They did it on purpose because Blue and Red version were the versions to come out in America.
 
Sounds like good birthday presents for me and Genesis. :D -cough- Our b-days are in August...-coughcoughcough- on the same day. -cough-

They better do the rest of the series. D: Or I will cry!

Yes you are right Pokemon Red and Green came out in Japan together and Pokemon Blue was considered the third version and Pokemon Yellow was a fourth version, which is a version the following generation do not have. Pokemon Red and Blue came out in other countries together, but Pokemon Green was not released in those countries, but its remake Pokemon LeafGreen was release in other countries along with Pokemon FireRed, but that still does not mean that Blue and Green will be switch back though, but we will just have wait and see. So what I am trying to say is that since Green is Red's rival his name was change because the rival character supposed to be named after the second version.

That's what I'll do. xD
I'm really excited, if Pokespecial can get enough sales... we may get volumes in America! Maybe it was because it was in Nick Mag! They didn't even have to win! xDD
*happy dance*
Viz changed the covers, right? Do you think they'll just go with the Japanese covers for the second edition or not?
@ Da Man, I don't know. Sorry.

Speaking of Pokemon Mangas I never seem any of them in the UK, can't find any in Waterstones (a book shop) yet they got Naruto, One Piece and Dragonball Z -_-.

Does Amazon UK sell Pokemon Mangas?

Durial666 should help you with that.

Sooo happy^_^! I've already told a lot of kids in my school about it and my brother. I am going to buy every volume even if it's not in my bookstore I'll have my mom buy it off Amazon, I really hope it doesn't come to that though because whenever I want to buy something online my mom says "If I help you get this what are you gonna do for me" -_-'

My mom does that too. Or, she tells me to finally get a talent. My whole family has a talent... except me, the black sheep.

I really liked the original covers. I so hope they just stay with the Japanese covers this time around.
