Pondering Previews for July

in: manga

Viz

As usual, Viz is getting a large portion of my money:

20th Century Boys #5
Skip Beat #19
Vagabond VizBig #5
What a Wonderful World #1 and #2 – Solanin was lovely, so I’m expecting What a Wonderful World by the same author to be a great read.

Yen Press

Yotsuba&! Yen is listing multiple volumes of Yotsuba&! I’m so glad someone picked this series up after it was abandoned by ADV. I think their translation is new. I’m curious to compare these editions with the old ADV ones.


Digital Manga

Ludwig II #2 – Haven’t read the first volume of Ludwing II, but since this is a You Higuri series I’m sure I’ll want to read it.

CMX

Apothecarius Argentum #8
Oh My Brother #1 – I love Name of the Flower, so I am eager to sample another series by Ken Saito

Tokyopop seems to mostly be soliciting large portions of backlist, so if you wanted to get into Chibi Vampire or Trinity Blood, this would be a chance to order multiple volumes of those series.

I always like to see the upcoming series lists and covers on Mangacast, so if you are curious about some recent new title announcements they have the rundown from CMX, Viz, and Tokyopop. I was happy to see that Viz is publishing more Rinko Ueda, because Tail of the Moon is one of my favorite feel-good series. CMX looks like they’ve snagged a bunch of really cute shoujo titles. Some of the new Tokyopop acquisitions look intriguing too.
