| Big restructuring at Tokyopop inc. drop in manga publishing | Wed, 4 Jun 2008 |
|
Yesterday, wide-reaching manga publisher Tokyopop announced their plans to restructure their company, essentially splitting into two seperate entities, one to handle "new media" called "Tokyopop Media LLC" (including a number of movie adaptations for their comic properties) and the other, "Tokyopop Inc.", will continue with the straight up goal of publishing comics/manga. To this end, they have announced that 39 employees will be/have been made redundant and that they will be scaling back their publishing activities from 470 volumes per year to 225-240. It's unknown just how (or even if) this effects the UK branch of Tokyopop.
