Found: Gaba Kawa

filed under , 8 January 2009, 22:26 by

Yet another one-shot from Shojo Beat (there seem to be quite a few of these…) this time from Rie Takada (mangaka of Punch!, Happy Hustle High, & Wild Act)

Found:

Gaba Kawa

hey!

A quick pass through a romaji-to-kana converter followed by mangling by Google MechaTranslationBots gives us a rough impression that Gaba Kawa means “what if I?” — but a stop by ANN for the actual Japanese title: ガバ♥カワ — and a second melee with the GogTranBot is only confusing. Obviously translation is a science that will be beyond me for quite some time; I mean, I get あ あ あ~ ん~~ … あ あ … ア~~ ン~ (and if you know your kana you might guess how I’m teaching myself to read Japanese) but onomatopoetics are much easier to grasp than, you know, actual words.

But Anyway the title of this one is Gaba Kawa which means “Gaba Kawa” and it’s shoujo (‘cause it’s from Shojo Beat) and if that’s the main character Rara on the cover then this looks to be a comic about one cute demon.

Rewind: Top Manga of 2007

filed under , 8 January 2009, 20:11 by

It’s time for year end charts, oh boy, and you know I’ve a load of data that I just can’t wait to…

well, there’s a double entendre in there somewhere that I probably shouldn’t commit to print.

First up: No, that’s not a typo. I’m going back, all the way back to my first charts (posted to the now defunct Comicsnob.com) as a way of settling restless spirits and putting them to bed. Actually, someone sent me a very polite email wondering if I had data for 2007 manga like that currently posting to my blog?

Well, the short answer is no. The 2007 data is nothing like the current charts, in that I was upgrading sources and methods on an almost weekly basis — learning on the job, as it were — and the very first chart (posted on 6 July 2007) was only a top 40.

[*pffht*] 40. That’s weak.

The longer answer re: 2007, well… that takes a bit longer to answer, obviously.

I’ve quite a bit of data from 2007, as it turns out. I have the actual spreadsheets for 25 weeks, and while I’m missing files from a couple weeks in July (odd that) I was able to reconstruct the charts from archived files of the actual Comicsnob.com posts. And while the July and August charts are, frankly, too short for decent comparisons to be made, by Autumn I was posting a top 100 (expanded to 150 in December) and I was retaining historical data (last week’s ranking, et al.) and tracking publishing information while also retaining *all* the scores, not just the ranking volumes as posted.

I could actually take the year-old (a-year-plus old) stuff and assemble it into a very reasonable looking chart. It’s not so much a chart for all of 2007 — more like rankings for Autumn 2007 augmented with a skosh more info from that Summer — but even a quarterly chart is kind of fun. (And Autumn ’07 was the occasion of the first Naruto Nation Sales Putsch so is of some historical interest as well)

Since someone thought to ask (there’s a college professor in California you folks need to thank for this) here ya go:

2007, year in Review
* with the limitations as noted above
* and without complete publishing info for all titles. Heck, I only had that nailed down six months ago.

Manga Midlist 500
(adjusted sales rankings excluding volumes from the top 5 series)
(de-narutofied for your convenience and my sanity)
for 2007

To better illustrate how 2nd-tier titles are performing, the 100 or so books from the top 5 series are excluded, and then a top 500 chart (this ‘Midlist 500’) is re-run and re-numbered with the volumes that remain.

Can anyone speak with authority as to when (of if) these will be available? I suppose it’s past time for me to double check these titles with publisher and distributors sites, sales sites, or maybe even the inventory system at work…



Manga 500, Vol 2 Week 2

Estimated Online Sales Rankings
For the Week Ending 4 January 2009

Note on Sources: The Virgin MegaStores site (due partly to the fact that there are no Virgin Megastores anymore, but mostly to the fact that their book search is broken) has been replaced in these rankings by regional bookseller chain Hastings, operating 154 superstores, averaging approximately 20,000 square feet, primarily in medium-sized markets throughout the United States. Because of their… eccentricities… I can only consider a top 100 manga from the GoHastings.com web site, but will be tracking it weekly from now on.

…if you’ve read this far, you’ll no doubt be interested in the Weekly Commentary Posts.

More Next Week. Promise.

Originally compiled by Matt Blind for the benefit of the Manga Community and posted in the rankings category at RocketBomber.com. Derived from publically available information; if you feel your intellectual property has been infringed upon then I’d advise you to chill, consult your lawyers again, maybe grow a thicker skin, and then also recognise that you’re getting a free, weekly link directly to your manga offerings [right at the top of the post, in case you missed it] on a blog that specifically caters to fans of the medium. Maybe you should be sending me money, or free manga, as opposed to getting your boxers/panties in a bunch over imaginary copyrights.

All data as posted released back into the public domain (be free, little numbers, go frolic and prosper) with merely a humble request that you link rather than steal, and that any derivative works include an attribution and also remain free to all.

##

Additional information on sources, methodology, bad habits, wastes of time, trivia, what is and isn’t manga, how alcoholism and OCD directly contribute to the compilation of the rankings, the thaumaturgical formulas used in the spreadsheet, answers to readers’ questions (if you ever get around to actually asking me anything) and other similar esoterica can be found in the Charts’ FAQ.

Found: Edo Cats -- Tails of Old Tokyo

Found:

Edo Cats: Tails Of Old Tokyo
isbn 9784921205263
@ Amazon

Acclaimed manga artist and historian Ryuto Kanzaki takes readers on a whimsical tour of Edo (Old Tokyo) as seen through the eyes of the local cats. Discover the costumes, customs, and color of bygone Japan. Teeming with history and nostalgia, Edo Cats: Tails of Old Tokyo will delight manga fans and feline-lovers alike!

at 96 pages, this just has to be another small, 5“x5” hard cover gift book like Manga Sisters, Manga Moods, and 50 Things We Love About Japan. (I own 2/3 of those, and have been pleased with both of them.)

Given the subject matter, this would appear to be the gift that sits at the intersection of T.S. Eliot and Rurouni Kenshin. There has to be at least one fan out there… Releases in April ’09.

Teaser: week ending 4 Jan.

filed under , 5 January 2009, 11:16 by

For some of you, this is the only chart of mine you’ll read all week. A top 10 is all you want; the too-big-to-digest reports just make your eyes glaze and your fingers twitch toward the mouse to browse somewhere else.

I’m cool with that.

There is so little movement in either top 10, week to week, though — so let’s take a thicker slice off the top.

Preliminary Charts:

Yes, all the links are broken.

On June 1, 2015 (after 6 years and 11 months) I needed to relaunch/restart this blog, or at least rekindle my interest in maintaining and updating it.

Rather than delete and discard the whole thing, I instead moved the blog -- database, cms, files, archives, and all -- to this subdomain. When you encounter broken links (and you will encounter broken links) just change the URL in the address bar from www.rocketbomber.com to archive.rocketbomber.com.

I know this is inconvenient, and for that I apologise. In addition to breaking tens of thousands of links, this also adversely affects the blog visibility on search engines -- but that, I'm willing to live with. Between the Wayback Machine at Archive.org and my own half-hearted preservation efforts (which you are currently reading) I feel nothing has been lost, though you may have to dig a bit harder for it.

As always, thank you for reading. Writing version 1.0 of Rocket Bomber was a blast. For those that would like to follow me on the 2.0 - I'll see you back on the main site.
