Thanks for answer...

Shouldn't the title of Koge-donbo's latest be something like "Pavane for a tearful/crying girl," and not "Pavane for a dead girl"?

Many Japanese magazines are postdated two months ahead if they are released at the end of the month. So an issue that just got released at the end of August may be postdated two months ahead to October.

The Japanese word for crying is "naki" but there is another Japanese word for dead/deceased that is also pronounced "naki," but with a different kanji. Koge Donbo*'s new title uses the latter kanji, since it is an apparent wordplay on Maurice Ravel's Pavane pour une infante défunte (Naki Ōjo no Tame no Pavane or Pavane for a Dead Princess).

Wow. This is interesting and awesome news for me, which [b]literally[/b] made my day better. Mag Garden is one of my favorite Japanese manga publishers out there and it's nice to know and hear news that they have some new projects for their magazine.

Hmm...Even though it's not finalized, [i]Angels Falling Down[/i] sounds like a pretty decent and workable title.

I believe that there are two manga included in their "Blade Brand-New Operation 2008" campaign that involves sports: one based on soft tennis, and the other for lacrosse. Even though most sports manga aren't my cup of tea, those somehow peaked my interest.

I pretty much hoped that Kozue Amano will be working on a new manga, and knew about it by going to Mag Garden's [i]Comic Blade[/i] website. It's great to know that it's happening. I may not read Japanese, but I can't wait to buy that issue of [i]Comic Blade[/i].
