The
19th volume of Hiroyuki Asada's Tegami Bachi (Also called
Letter Bee) just came out in Japan this past Saturday, and lists that
the 20th volume (due out this winter) will be it's last.
The manga began in Monthly Jump in 2006, and when the magazine ended
it switched to Weekly Jump before finally finding a new home in Jump
Square in 2007. The manga tells the story of a young boy named Lag
Seeing who delivers mail as a “Letter Bee”, coming across all
sorts of dangers which his “Dingo” companion Niche protects him
from. The 17th volume was just released by Viz in the US
last November.
This
is a series I remember liking well enough when I got to read a bit of
it in the US version of Shonen Jump, so I really need to get around
to checking it out more properly eventually. I remember that Niche is
adorable and sassy, and that's more than enough for a read, I'd say.
