Japan's Kadokawa Group collaborated with a Chinese publisher to release an official Chinese comic of Nagaru Tanigawa's The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya light novel on Wednesday. Meanwhile, back in Japan, Kadokawa Shoten will publish Suzumiya Haruhi no Kansoku (The Observation of Haruhi Suzumiya), the first official fanbook guide from the editors of the Haruhi Suzumiya light novels' Sneaker Bunko imprint.The Chinese government restricts the publication of translated foreign comics within its borders to protect its domestic industry. As a result, the Kadokawa Group and a local publisher hired a Chinese artist to adapt The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya into a comic. The resulting book went on sale in bookstores in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou. Saori Yoshida, the editor-in-chief of Kadokawa's first editorial division, explained that this new approach allows Japanese works to enter the Chinese market while discouraging piracy.
