Marmalade Boy
"Marmalade Boy" was licensed for an English language release in North America by Tokyopop. The individual chapters were serialized by the company's manga anthology, "Smile", from December 2001 through April 2002. Tokyopop released the first collected volume of the series on April 23, 2002 and released new volumes monthly until the final volume was released on August 5, 2003. It was one of the first manga series that Tokyopop released in the original Japanese orientation, in which the book is read from right to left, and with the original sound effects left in place. Tokyopop's volumes of the series are out of print. Shueisha refused to renew the company's license of the series after becoming part-owner of rival publisher Viz Media.
