another Hiatus ?

Quote:
"So Hoshino got caught plagiarizing a long time ago but the charges were dropped. However, now she once again got caught plagiarizing a character of Takeshi Obata and he's now seeking justice. Thus, Jump has announced, along with the hiatus, that re-serialization of the series will be undetermined. "
anyone know if this is accurate ?? I found it from Animesuki forum.

Takeshi Obata vs. Hoshino Katsura:

=\ I love Obata's work but now he seems small minded to me by make such a fuss over a little star that looks like something he did before... which he probably stole from somewhere else ..actually. and don't get me started about the second picture, because it is absolutely ridiculous.


I hope they will not cancel it or something. T___T or..or I'll miss my Tykiiiii ♥

I agree with you. :)

Also, it could be that she has to take an extra week or two after Golden Week to polish the old chapters that she needs to complie for volume 18. At http://mangahelpers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7754&page=13 on Manga Helpers, post #185 says that the next volume might be out this June. But after looking at the past 10 or so chapters, they don't seem to have a lot of rough panels in them. Though, I have noticed that Hoshino changes her screen tones for her finalized tankoubons.
