 I found my first copy in November at Nippon Daido in Houston, and I
then made a special order subscription from OCS (Overseas Courier
Service, a large chain company that specializes in Japanese book and
magazine imports).  I'm sure you could probably order from Sasuga or
Kinokunia or somewhere like that if you don't have a local OCS.  The
problem with OCS is that they're a little expensive and it's slow to
start a new subscription (usually 3 months, but Chara took even longer,
probably because it's only bimonthly), but so far they've been
dependable and I walk in to pick up my manga which minimizes on postage.
 Hope that helps!

We can run to the end of the world
