    I'm following these continuing series in Japanese (can't read it raw   
   with any fluency though): Kabu no Isaki, Hourou Musuko, Pochiyama at the   
   Pharmacy (Yoshitoshi ABe doujin), Genshiken Nidiarame, Amanchu!, Koe de   
   Oshigoto, Chikyuu no Houkago   
      
    Attempting to get complete collections of these series in Japanese:   
   Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (only the last two to get now), Hating Girl,   
   Aria/Aqua, Roman Club and the Kozue short story collections.   
      
    English and French translated manga: Ame Nochi Hare, Pastel,   
   Hourou Musuko (when I can find a copy), Kingyo Used Books (although I'm   
   not as enthused about it as I thought I would be from the premise), Aria   
   (two publishers down, one to go), Family Compo.   
      
    I have a bunch of earlier English-language translated manga going back   
   to the original Dark Horse/Viz stuff in large-format "comics" printing,   
   series like the Ranma printing, Gunsmith Cats etc. as well as the real   
   back-to-front tanko mangas such as Here is Greenwood, Hikaru no Go etc.   
   but they're completed storylines and I don't read them as much as the   
   newer and continuing series.
