There was an SR manga.
I saw a few pages someone scanned a while back, but I have NO idea why FASA
hasn't brought this over here for us!

As for the Japan Sourcebook.
The official word is ...
A) Fasa no longer does "place" books - they do "Target" books. Rumors
of a
Target: Pacific Rim book flourish.
B) When Fasa does "target" books, they like to have them done by locals, so
the info is fairly realistic.
Ask Pete Sims about how important that is, and see how he liked the London
sourcebook. ;-)
Since FASA has no local to do the project, it's not being done right now.
