Interview by Johanna Draper Carlson:

Kelly Sue DeConnick has achieved a following in an unexpected area: manga adaptation. Though she only began studying Japanese this year, she’s worked with professional translators over the past four years to craft English dialogue for such series as Sensual Phrase, Fruits Basket and Sexy Voice and Robo, among many other titles.

PW Comics Week: How did you get started in this field?

Kelly Sue DeConnick: Almost accidentally, as odd as that sounds…

Cold Cut Top Manga Graphic Novels of 2005

Matthew High writes:

Here’s a list of Cold Cut’s top-selling manga series of 2005 — but the way this list is composed is different from previous lists. For a graphic novel series which has multiple volumes, only the top-selling graphic novel is listed. For example, if Inu-Yasha graphic novels ranked 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th and 8th on the list, then only the first one is counted — otherwise the list would just get filled with volumes from the same five or six series over and over, making for a very boring list. It is also important to note that Cold Cut does not carry many manga publishers out there, such as Tokyopop and AD Vision. Why? Because they have decided to sign a distribution-restriction agreement with another distributor. So, we mainly carry lots of Viz, plus a few smaller publishers such as Dr. Master and CPM. So please keep that in mind when viewing the list. For everything listed below, assume it is published by Viz unless otherwise noted.

[Emphasis mine.]

Still, look:

50. Blue Spring

52. Sensual Phrase

56. Kare First Love
