I don't mean to reply for Stan...but, well, I'll do so anyway :D

This is taken from the "Coming up in UY" section of the dojo:

The Return of Inspector Ishida - UYD Member "Maka" gave Stan a great idea for an Inspector Ishida Mystery, a Hana-fuda crime for Inspector Ishida to solve. "The murderer leaves hanafuda cards in his victims clothes as a clue to why the crime was committed." Stan thought it was a great idea and, with Maka's permission, will be using the story ina future issue of UY!

As for Ino, I don't think so. That story at the end of the Fantagraphics run was probably called "The Last Ino Story" because Stan wanted to give Ino his happy ending after living such a terrible life, and using him again in any capacity would kind of ruin that.

I wait what Stan Sakai has to say, the swords pig is still alive, so you never know? Even without plans for a future story, the future is a mystery.

I've always said that The Last Zato-Ino Story was truly the last Zato-Ino story...







...unless I think of another story with the blind swordspig.

Itsy Bitsy Ino?
