#VIEWFINDER ANIME FEILONG LICENSE#
In March 2010, Digital Manga Publishing announced that it had acquired the English license to the Finder series, publishing the series under their Juné imprint. Finder was not listed among the assets, indicating Central Park Media no longer held the license. In 2009, Central Park Media filed for bankruptcy and its assets, including licenses, were liquidated. John O'Donnell, then manager of Central Park Media refused Libre's claims and felt that Biblos's original license agreements were still valid. After Libre acquired Biblos' assets following the latter's bankruptcy, they accused Central Park Media of infringing on its copyright of the transferred Biblos properties, stating that all foreign license holders needed to negotiate new licenses with Libre as those Biblos had sold ended with the company's bankruptcy. In 2004, Central Park Media licensed the Finder series in English for North American distribution under its Be Beautiful Manga imprint.
Following the Biblos' bankruptcy in 2006, Libre acquired the series in 2007, reprinting the first three volumes before continuing its release. Biblos originally published the series from 2002 to 2005. The individual chapters were collected and published in 10 tankōbon volumes. It is serialized in the manga magazines Be x Boy Gold and B-Boy Zips. The Finder series is written by Ayano Yamane.
