Twin Spica in English so far
The English edition started with Vol. 1 on May 4, 2010 from Vertical. In the 1.8 years since, 12 volumes have come out — one about every 2 months on average. Recent volumes have kept close to that pace (about every 2 months).
The Japanese edition has 16 volumes, all published before the English edition stopped, so the two editions may simply split the story into different volumes.
