Has anyone on here heard of "Yotsuba&!" by Kiyohiko Azuma?

YES. It's pretty much my favorite "comedy" manga. It's adorable, it's clean, it's funny...what's not to like? But yes, it's a very good series. I just wish ADV would hurry up and release the rest of it, already. XD

Are they still publishing it? It looked like it kind of just dropped off the face of the planet with no clear ending.

There are at least 2-3 more books in the series, but ADV's manga branch has been having trouble for quite some time now, so I don't know if we'll be seeing the rest of Yotsubato! for a while.

I love that series! It is a great manga for those who like the comedy genere. Hopefully ADV will release vol 4 this year.

I adore Yotsubato! I laugh to the point of tears every time I read it. Yotsuba's antics and how her father and Jumbo totally play along... heeehe.
I was pretty miffed at ADV for their disappearing act, and found a source of scanlations for the volumes that hadn't come out yet in the US. I'd be happy to share, so just PM me. I totally plan on buying the remaining volumes whenever they're released here, but the year plus hiatus was getting to me...

Heh. Imagine my surprise when I realized I hadn't looked for new volumes in months, checked, and found out I still had the latest volume. Gotta love ADV (*grumble*).
Wonderful series. I loved it just as much as Azumanga Daioh!, and it's so clean, I was able to lend it to a nine-year old!

Yup. If there was ever an anime, and ADV dubbed it, I could totally see Jessica Boone (Chiyo Mihama from Azumanga and Misaki Suzuhara from Angelic Layer) playing Yotsuba, and Andy McAvin (Kimura-sensei from...well, you know...and Ichiro Mihara from Angelic Layer) playing Jumbo. "Did I say something stupid again??"

Woot! I love this series! The only other manga that has brought me to tears from laughter would be Azumanga Daioh. I guess Kiyohiko's style of humor just nails it for me.

Totally. I love his work (those two manga anyways; I think he might have more out there).

I LOOOOOOVE Yotsubato! It's the cleanest manga I've ever seen. However, I laughed until I cried!!
