Mangaby Karl_Barx28

Series that are heavily overlooked on MAL (at the time of writing, under 2k members). Most, if not all of them are also underrated. Will likely add series in the future as I read them.

Japan's Shōwa era lasted from 1926 to 1989. In 2009, Asahi Shimbun announced a polled list of 50 of the greatest 'masterpieces(名作)' of the Shōwa era. The only one not listed on MAL yet is 'Iga no Kagemaru' by Mitsuteru Yokoyama, which was ranked 27th.

Mangaby Katayone

Reboots and remakes, made either by the original author or by someone new, from flashy updates of webcomics to classics remade anew. Excludes manga based on a pilot one-shots and adaptations of other media (such as multiple adaptations of a novel). Vaguely sorted.

Most entries explain the circumstances or have the original in the relations, except for Yakushoku Distopiary (a webcomic remake). One Piece: Episode A and Eguchi Hisashi contain remakes. Hotel has Boichi's remake of a manhwa one-shot Hotel: Since 2079.

Mangaby RisefromAshes

I've put together a list of manga written by Tezuka Osamu, that was officially licensed and released in physical or digital format in the English language (mostly from North American releases). Tezuka's works in English are a mix of titles still being printed and circulated, and out of print. There are a varity of editions from comic book 'floppies', softback, hardbacks, and even boxed collections! This is a fan guide to figure out if the copies you are reading or buying are from legitimate sources.

This list is NOT complete, I'm merely one person and have probably missed a title or two.

Notes about Publisher's: Vertical Inc. was acquired by Kodansha USA in 2011, and fully absorbed in 2020. Any titles that were licensed to Vertical Inc. are currently distributed digitally via Kodansha USA with infrequent reprintings.

Digital Manga Publishing (DMP), and Digital Manga Guild Publishing/Publication (DMGP) are two branches of the same company as far as I am aware. DMP tends to be physical copies, DMGP is digital copies. Physical copies are sold via their website eManga, and Amazon. Digital copies can be found on eManga, via the following statement:

"eManga is Digital Manga, Inc.'s own one stop online shop for manga, originally established back in 2008. Providing manga both digitally (in a variety of downloadable formats) and physically, in 2018, eManga merged with DMI's print store - Akadot - to house everything in one place". [taken from eManga's website]

NOT LISTED IN DATABASE
+"Shakespeare Manga Theater", Ablaze Manga, 2024.
Stories included: The Merchant of Venice, Robio and Robiette from Astro Boy, Macbeth from Vampires, Hamlet from Rainbow Parakeet, The Taming of the Shrew from Rainbow Parakeet, Othello from Rainbow Parakeet. As well as essays, afterword commentary and more.
Digital version on Azuki: https://www.azuki.co/series/shakespeare-manga-theatre

TITLES THAT WILL BE ADDED IN A VOLUME TWO:
-Tetsuwan Atom Bekkan, 2002-2004 including with the Dark Horse edition of "Astro Boy".
-Vampires, 2024 select chapters via "Shakespeare Manga Theater".
-Rainbow Parakeet, 2024 selection chapters via "Shakespeare Manga Theater".

If you have more information on titles available to add to this list, please shoot me a DM and I'll add it accordingly. The more information you can provide, links, dates, etc the better off we as collectors will be!

Mangaby Keizakomu

Transgender (binary trans, non-binary, and/or intersex) manga with official English (at least partial) translations. Organized roughly by release order in Japan.

(My definition of a trans manga is one that has a main trans character. Them being transgender may or may not be a big impact on the story.)


Not on MAL:

"Onna" toshite Idakaretai... Seitenkan Shite, Hatsukoi wo Mou Ichido./Hold Me, Baby, As a Lady... -First Love Again in the Body of a Woman.
Sanae Takahashi (trans woman) (protagonist)
Machiko (trans woman) (supporting)

Kamisama, Boku wo Koroshite Kudasai - Otoko no Karada de Umareta Jigoku/The Pain of Living in a Male Body
Subaru Kawase (trans girl) (protagonist)

Just a list of the one-shot or single omnibus releases in English of Shojo and Josei stories. Companies include Viz, Vertical Comics, Yen Press, Seven seas, Denpa, Kodansha, Fantagraphics, Star Fruit Books, Dark Horse, Digital Manga Publishing, and ADV manga. There are several that Tokyopop licensed as one-shots or single omnibi, but I ran out of room so I didn't include them on this list.

*I ran out of room to include these works:
- Kodansha's Is Love the Answer?/Kimi no Sekai ni Koi wa Nai which is 1 volume (https://myanimelist.net/manga/143738/Kimi_no_Sekai_ni_Koi_wa_Nai)
- Kodansha's "An Older Guy's VR First Love"/VR Ojisan no Hatsukoi (https://myanimelist.net/manga/142033/VR_Ojisan_no_Hatsukoi)
- Last Gasp's "Pure Trance" (https://myanimelist.net/manga/1359/Pure_Trance)
- Moyoco Anno's "In Clothes Called Fat" (https://myanimelist.net/manga/13881/Shibou_to_Iu_Na_no_Fuku_wo_Kite?q=in%20clothes%20called%20fat&cat=manga)

Just a list of Shojo and Josei manga that began publishing before 1990 that have been officially published in english, although some are Out of Print or from defunct digital publishers and thus are no longer legally available.

I can't seem to add this one, but Sign wa V!/The V Sign! (1969) was officially published as well (https://myanimelist.net/manga/125803/Sign_wa_V)

This one isn't in the MyAnimeList database, but Pairazahda/Pairazada (1984) is legally published and available digitally in english (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07757Y1X9?ref_=dbs_m_cmx_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks)

(database entry: https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/yrzhtz5/pairazada)

Some Pre-1990s Shojo stories without database entries from Moto Hagio were published in the English Anthology "A Drunken Dream and Other Stories". These include Angel Mimic/Tenshi no Gitai (1984), Autumn Journey/Aki no Tabi (1971), and Girl on Porch with Puppy/Pochi de Shōjo ga Koinu to (1971). (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Drunken_Dream_and_Other_Stories)

Himitsu no Akko-chan was published in Japan in a Bilingual English edition intended to be an english-learning aide to japanese people.

The Shojo stories Plus 1 (1986) and Purple (1985) from Ciao magazine were published in english in Animerica Extra's Short Program Volume 1 Anthology which was later released in its own collected volume in the US (https://myanimelist.net/manga/1443/Short_Program).
