I've been studying/reading about the Shinsengumi for a few years now. I realized over that time, that it was become a very popular subject for modern culture/entertainment.
I have read/watched many different representations of the Shinsengumi. I really have enjoyed them all. Then I found this:

This manga seems really great. I like that they address life as the Shinsengumi was forming & coming under the leadership of Kondo-san, Hijikata-san, & Yamanami-san.
This manga seems to have been dropped as a project for English translations. I know it has 5 volumes published in Japan, but I can't seem to find any way to get my hands on this manga.
I hope that this post complies with this community's posting regulations. If not, please let me know.
If anyone does have news on this manga, I would really be grateful! I'm always looking for new material, even in Japanese. :)
