I actually own about half that series. I picked up part of it on yahoo Japan, and the other portion I bought in second hand book stores in Berkeley. I don't know where you're from, but if you really wanted the series, you could get the entire series on Yahoo Japan. Use a third party service to order it for you if necessary. It's a good series man. Hope that helps.

I didn't really know I was a big Urasawa fan till I read "Happy!" But much of it is unavailable! And the publishers are not responding to my queries. I've tried book distributors, comics sites, and ebay, and no luck! Anyone know where to buy copies of "Happy!"?
For those not in the know, it's the series Urasawa did after "Yawara," and it wasn't as popular, but it did feature the same skill with storytelling and illustration, though some might have felt it was less appealing because the main character, Umino Miyuki, was so unlikely to ever succeed against the mounting odds.
Anyway, I'm partway through the story (having found much of it posted online), and right smack in the middle of the conflict, in full epic-fail mode, holding out hope the heroine will prevail... but nobody has the manga!

As you know Ai-chan is stepping down from the owner role in this list.
I'd like to thank her for running the group for a time.
For now I am stepping in until we have a person with more time and
motivation step forward to promote the group and such. Anyway expect
not much in the way of visible changes.
Take care,
Coran
Hi,
I'm Aichan, group owner after the previous one passed it on to me.
Currently, I'm owner of several groups, and am involved in even more
projects in real-life, so I found my position as owner of this group
more tiring than it should.
I have a deep love for Yawara, and would like to leave this group in
the hands of someone who has time to moderate, improve and promote it
more and better than I'm doing at this time.
Anyone willing?
Aichan
Judogirl owner
A little late but...
As you might expect with Yawara being licensed Live-eviL dropped
Yawara straight away. Please do not distribute our fansubs anymore due
to it being licensed. Our torrents were deactivated on the day of
licensing.
We encourage everyone to support Animeigo to buy Yawara when it's
released!
Regards

I'm very sad ;[
Since I'm from Poland it's not good at all for me that Yawara is being
licensed now. 57 stunning episodes and what should I, poor addicted fan from
far Europe do? Wait for Animeigo releases? Still more and more reasons for
buying 'region-free' DVD-player ;)
Anyway, Live-eviL: big thanks for good job.
Greetings

Everyone:
I've been lurking for a very long time now, but I thought I say a final
piece now that "Yawara!" has been licensed by a good company.
Good job everyone.

Hi,
I just wanted to ask what people thought of the World Cup arc so far
in Yawara?. (This question is addressed to people who haven't watched
all of it raw).
The tension seems to be building tremendously towards a dramatic
conclusion :O. Does Yawara get any better than this?

Hi all,
Yawara 45 is out now on XDCC and bittorrent at
http://a.scarywater.net/live-evil.
We hope you all enjoy it.
This release is a VERY significan't milestone as we've finally reached
the point that Neko Creations reached back in the VHS fansubbing day.
We'd like to take this opportunity to offer a SUPER HUGE HUMUNGOUS
thank you to everyone associated with Neko Creations for letting us
use the scripts for 1 - 41 and 44 - 45.
We very much hope to continue Neko's legacy by bringing you all more
Yawara to enjoy and perhaps bring back a few old fans of the series
who stopped watching at 45 ? :D
