It had the same effect on me as well, sounds really interesting! I haven't gotten to read my copy yet though I definitely look forward to it.

I was not fond of the low quality paper. CMX uses recycled paper which does lower the quality of the mangas they published. Nonetheless, as long as they continue publishing From Eroica with Love, I will still purchase it. Also, the review on Ikigami convinced me to purchase the first volume. Its great. Thanks!

I was invited to their webinar test-run a few weeks back and really appreciated the outreach to fans and manga-bloggers. It's nice to be able to put a face/personality with the company in my mind. And it's exciting to get the industry-panel experience, as I've never had the opportunity to go to a major con myself! As for the paper change, I'm absolutely thrilled, though mostly because of what I assume it says for Tokyopop's future stability. It is nice to know that they're listening to fan feedback too! (but I maintain I did like being able to squeeze more volumes of manga on a shelf with the thinner paper-stock :D) I'm gonna try to get in :D (at times like this, I'm thankful to be a freelancer!)
