According to Wikipedia the manga has 8 volumes in Japan and is still
ongoing. The second volume has just been released in the US (third is
announced for January next year).

The second volume is on the street now. I got it over the weekend at a
Borders with one of the -40% coupons.
Wiki's off a bit on the Japanese release. I picked up number 9 last week at
a Japanese book store.
