Actually, the big game these days is FINDING ADV Manga -- outside of a long abandoned webpage on the ADV website, no one at ADV will respond to any manga questions -- email sent isn't responded to (though they add you to their spam newslist) and phone calls end up at voicemail.
Wierdly, you can still find new prints of AzuDa and the first 3 volumes of Yotsuba& on shelves.... as if the head was removed but the body is still making prints.... wierd and antagonizing.
I have both the ADV english and the original Japanese releases of the manga (it is only 4 volumes after all). Its kind of fun comparing the two and shaking your head...
One of the best handlings of multiple language situations I ever saw (and wish folks who handled Ichigo Masimaru and AzuDa would have watched for hints) was Red October (the nuke submarine Cold War spy movie).
