Also, there are four more episodes of Maruko left to finish! I'm hoping to get them all squared away by the start of early next year, so that means no re-releases or episodes of Hai! Step Jun until the middle of January. Sorry for the delay if you're looking forward to either, but it would mean a lot to me to have the 1st series of Maruko finished ASAP.
