Moho Forum

I am an english speaker, so I thought I would take you guys up on the Manga studio deal that you offered on your announcementhttp://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5373, but I keep getting refused by the site, telling me that the product is not available in my area. Why is that? I live in japan, but cannot speak Japanese, and I cannot buy the english version? It's a little bit of bad business practice don't you think? I can order other software uch as poser, but not the one I want? Can you suggest why this is so, especially as I would not be able to get an english version here in Japan...

Oops, hopefully that's just an over-strict automated criteria, and your case wan't anticipated when it was set up.

I'd suggest contacting e-frontier sales directly.

Regards, Myles.

Hello,

Were you wanting to download or get a boxed version?

I think the reason you cannot get Manga Studio in Japan and that E-frontier is based in Japan so they would require locals to order software from the Japanese e-frontier. Manga Studio is actually Comic Studio, created by Celsys www.celsys.co.jp . So there is a licence restriction there.

Unfortunately you cannot speak Japanese as i would recommend speaking to E-frontier JP or even Celsys (if you could read Japanese to use Comic Studio)

however..the deal is with e-frontier us.. maybe you can order the download version as no shipping is required.


hmm..

Actually I am aware of that as I have a Japanese version of the product from a few years ago, which I thought I could pick up by guessing buttons, but no luck.

I sent a ticket to content paradise, but I think that is rather bad marketing. I will wait for their reply... I hope they will make an allowance in my case... hopefully... Any guys thanks for your quick reply. Appreciated

Good luck!
How long have you been living there and where are you residing? I want to go back there as soon as possible i really miss it.

Did you try the download option?

Sorry for repeating myself and I guess you answered it already..
