...But you know will probably never happen. Now that we're moving out of our manga booms days it's even less likely to happen for the older titles. So what old manga would you like to see have an English release?

My votes would go to:
Patalliro!
Oniisama e
Rose of Versailles

After that I'd have to go with:
Bride of deimos which got a partial release here but wasn't finished
Same thing on from Eroica with love

I know there are lots of others that have been forgotten or ignored. What would you like to see?

I will agree with your lists. There are quite a few I would love to have released by some specific artists. Can't think of their titles right now, but I'll get back to you on that.

I'd like to see Candy Candy and the original run of Galaxy express.

Rose of Versailles really annoys me as it was released just about everywhere except an English speaking country. sad

I'd like to see the Mario and Zelda manga as well, I can't fathom why those weren't brought out. The only thing I can guess at is perhaps there's some copyright issues.

I just thought of another:

Sailor Moon

It deserves a decent release with proper translation and higher quality books. I know there are all sorts of issues with it happening but it still would be nice.

Oh dear god yes. And please, give them their real names. It makes a person want to cry when thinking about what they have done to Sailor Moon.
