No, nothing on the matter has been said. When we get some news, you'll hear about it here.

Just read volume 8. Tis greatness as usual...just feeling really grim from that story with the

Spoiler for vol 8:

grass looking thing that grew on people

Really really grim. Guess I'm one for happier endings.

Oh, any idea about the OSTs getting brought across the Pacific as well? If any OST is worth buying, it's this one QED.

I'd say there's a chance, but still --- with the music being that good, why wait so long, and just order the two soundtracks from Japan?

Do it for amazing music!

Saw this dubbed at Otakon. They actually did a pretty decent job. Most of the voices sounded... okay. That's actually praise coming from me talking about an dub.

My biggest complaint is that the English voice actors used the same exact tones for thinking and speaking so I had to keep looking at their mouths to figure out if they were talking out loud. That's a fairly small complaint considering that I have had that problem with a few Japanese voices also. The problem in Mushishi is that there is a LOT of thought dialogue.

From LJ: small sneak peaks at the Heavenly Mushishi illustrations collection:






Picture on the bottom right is Ginko and Tanyuu watching the snow as they sip sake. Along with that legendary image, which was the cover of the Afternoon magazine and is reproduced here in all it's glory, Tanyuu is now officially the number one Mushishi girl.

So, can somebody buy this please? And scan it, so we may all salivate, and worship, and pay homage collectively?

[lommm]

IT LOOKS FRICKIN' AMAZING!!!!

I have wallpaper of that one. I could put it up here, but would that be against the rules? I mean, since it's from an illustration collection and all...

But that's all I have.

[lommm]

no, i believe a link to the wallpaper hosted on photobucket or similar site would be acceptable...

so please put it up when you get a chance

Yes please.

Oh, the kind provider of the collection uploaded big images, so let us salivate together, until Kujoe gives us more to look at with that promised wallpaper.

That's what it looks like.

[Shiroth]

Yeah i've seen those images, and i can't find it on amazon.jp.

[Samsara]

looks like this art book is available through pre-order only and it's over.

If anybody is really keen on getting it, try Yahoo! Japan auctions. The original price is 4800Yen. Saw an auction close at 6800 Yen and there's one closing in 4hrs as I post and current price is 5750. Both are brand new unopened. Also saw an opened one close at 5100 Yen.

[kujoe]

Ok then. Here it is, folks.
