DMP is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to publish an English language version of the full run of Izumi Matsumoto's classic romance / science fiction manga, Kimagure Orange Road.

Kimagure Orange Road, which originally ran in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump manga magazine from 1984 - 1987, was released in 18 collected volumes in Japan. DMP aims to release 6 jumbo-sized, English language omnibus editions if the crowdfunding campaign meets all of its stretch goals.


DMP describes Kimagure Orange Road as follows:

"When high school student, Kyōsuke Kasuga, moves to a new school, he is suddenly mixed up into a complicated love triangle between a mercurial and enigmatic girl with a troubled past, named Madoka Ayukawa, and Hikaru Hiyama—Madoka's ditzy and energetic best friend. While Kyōsuke’s true feelings are for Madoka, his indecisive and sensitive personality keeps him from hurting Hikaru at the same time. To throw things more into the mix, Kyōsuke and his family hold a secret— they are espers (aka—people with psychic powers). Can Kyōsuke juggle the growing pains of high school life all the while keeping his family’s extra sensory powers a secret?

It’s teenage high school romance meets supernatural powers…roll that all up with the hi-jinks of a family of ESPers, and you got Kimagure Orange Road!"
