Tokyo Pop really didn't do that great a job of actually TRANSLATING Wish. I have the original Japanese publications and can read enough to know that their translations are bare minimum, and often fail to convey subtle nuances of storytelling. No amount of flashy packaging can cover that up.

My point was that fans shouldn't think of Tokyo Pop as the only option. There are fan translations and other companies that hopefully will compete to have better quality publications.
