Rumor, thy name is Internet. The final DVDs in the Saint Tail series have not been cancelled according to TOKYOPOP.

According to TOKYOPOP's Kristien Brada-Thompson, "TOKYOPOP has decided to create a single, collector's edition package for SAINT TAIL's remaining three volumes, rather than publishing them individually. We strongly believe that this three-pack series finale will be a fan-favorite -- very reasonably priced and a substantial value to collectors."

My sense of this situation is that throughout the series, TOKYOPOP has been adding value while attempting to minimize costs.

Several series have been dropped midstream by other companies due to lack of sales, however this will not be the case with Saint Tail as TOKYOPOP is committed to finishing out the whole run. No release date has been announced for the collector's edition, though we suspect an announcement at this year's Anime Expo.
