   	Well maybe if other adult readers go buy out the first 3 volumes   
   we might see Dark Horse rear up and issue the rest.  Looks like there   
   are lots of good adult series in Japanese.  I think of one about a   
   tea master in the era of Hideyoshi that I have seen on the shelves   
   at Kinokuniya in Nihon Machi in San Francisco.  Those of us who   
   have read a bit of history will remember that this is the Tea Master   
   who critized the ebullience of Hideyoshi's tea pavilion most likely   
   but since I cannot read Japanese I live in ignorance of the details   
   of the manga.
