If I didn't know that was only about $35.95, I'd say they have to pay a lot for it! Still more than I paid.

I´m sure the translator has done a good job, since it took that long! So, I´m happy for the Japanese people  They´ll get a Book, not a mere translation that distantly reminds of the book

Hmmm yeah, that is a long wait, however Americans tend to have to wait even longer to get our manga translated, so I think it evens out
