Well, it looks like we need to fight just to give VIZ our money, huh? Well, let's do it!

Yep... So... Should we just go right to Hidenori's twitter or the official website, like you suggested elsewhere?

Also, yes. Kusaka's Twitter and the official Pokémon Special website.

Twitter is most likely easier, but you're free to use the website to message him about it, too.

....You know how tempting it is to say "I told you so"?

Well, yeah. This is what I mean by let our voices be heard instead of just complaining on the internet.
Horay for public opinion~

*Tapes Chamo's mouth* Shush, you.

Fighting to give a company our money? Who would've expected that coming?

Made a thread to help raise awareness.

customer_service@viz.com is their incoming e-mail. Send all of your e-mails there!

Just sent an e-mail. Hope it goes through. I tried to sound as polite as possible while still saying how much I wanted the copies and how I was willing to spend money on them. Do you think it was a bit much to ask them to also check over their translations to make sure they don't make mistakes?

@JB2448: I know there's the petition in place, but how exactly do we get them to get the other arcs out?

Honestly, we can't. All we can do at this point is hope for the best.

How many people need to sign the petition for Viz to notice our request? I already sign it a long time ago I can't believe Viz still hasn't made up their minds for releasing RS, FRLG and emerald arc. Seriously those are the arc's most of us were hoping to get.

@Dreamingflower: Same here! I signed the petition about two months ago! And there's over 500 signatures, so why can't VIZ simply notice it and start translating again? Those three arcs are some of the best arcs in the whole series. Forget DPPt and BW for now, what about the three that were the best?

While 500 signatures may seem like a lot, it's really nothing in terms of sales figures. Let's use ponies as an example. (Hold the moaning.) Since the end of season 1 back in May, bronies have always wanted a boxset of the season to own on DVD. Sadly, despite how huge the brony movement is, they just can't be sure how many would actually be committed to sales, and a boxset still hasn't come out.

Yes, a boxset would be more expensive to produce than a manga copy, but when we're talking 15 volumes in the middle of the series, well... we'll probably have to wait until who knows how many years for RSEmakes to come out if Viz wants to wait on their hype in order to maximize their profits. (Just stuff on marketing that I've picked up, so feel free to tear my arguments apart if you actually know about it.)

@Chika Absolutely right, the GSC saga was translated only because of the HGSS games. It's all about marketing. If we have a RS or Emerald remake (or a new game in Hoenn, my biggest wish) the fourth chapter will suddenly be profitable to VIZ.
