Shin Megami Tensei Khan out now in English!

Quote:
The terrifying manga based on the hit video game! Nobu is a troubled teenager with a dark past. His old high school was sucked into the Underworld, where he and his fellow students battled hordes of demons led by the Demon Lord, Hazama. However, Nobu and a demon-possessed girl named Yumi managed to claw their way back to the Surface World, hoping to start new lives at new schools. But it isn't long before Nobu uncovers a government conspiracy to raise Hell on Earth, and he and Yumi are once again forced to face their worst nightmares...

A review
 
Ok so now we know it's related to if...  
I have yet to read it, as I just found out it came out when I got to work today.  The cover is pretty horrible and the logo is pretty terrifyingly bad, but the art inside holds up pretty well considering it's over 10 years old (except everyone has a huge forehead).  I've paged though and it's fairly gory (It seems they are trying to pass it off on the Battle Royale crowd) and it has some strange lesbian/demon sort of sex scene in it.  I'll have to write more about when I read it.

It's possible, but I don't know, this seems like a strange choice on Tokyopop's part to release this series.  I'd say try ordering them from the U.S. Amazon site.  I've ordered from the Japanese one, so I can't see why you can't order from the American one and have them shipped to you.

Oh my, it doesn't seem to be getting very good reviews...
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/shin-megami-tensei-kahn/gn-1
I have to agree with the reviewer on how strange it was for Tokyopop to release this manga. It would've been a better move if they had licensed a manga that was actually based off a SMT game licensed in the U.S.

I pretty much agree with the reviewer.  I read it, and it was pretty terrible.  Though I thought the art was passable, maybe "C" quality.  It's the story where it fails miserably.  For someone who hasn't played any of the games it whould have to make no sense at all, and it's kind of big on the shock factor to make it.  Plus who knew Pixie was and elf looking chick in 80's Madonna Lingerie.

Ugh, I would have preferred the Persona 3 manga over this. That seems to be the series that they're trying to capitalize off of anyway, since no one in the mainstream even knows what SMT If was about.

Oh dear me that is hilarious. >.>
 
I am reminded of Seinfeld, where the chick wears just a bra underneath her blazer and Kramer crashes into a telephone pole.

Wow, when I first hear the news and saw the cover(without the text) I was surprised and amazed, but after seeing the cover text and reading reviews, the excitement ended in tragedy

It looks like this is one of the canceled titles from Tokyopop.  Volume 3 maybe the last one to come out in English.

I borrowed a few volumes of this from a friend a while ago, and I didn't like it much, probably because I haven't played the game that it was the direct sequel of.  
...Which one was that again?

As far as I know it's not even a direct sequel of a game it's a sequel to a manga that is a direct sequel to Shin Megami Tensei if...
