New Releases and Pre-orders, Week Ending 15 February 2009
Selections from the Manga 500, sorted by Date
skip to: February – March – April – May – June and Beyond
Please Note: Publishing dates are typically coded at the time a title first ranks; often this is when it was preordered 1-3 months before. With shifting publishing schedules, shifty publishers, and general nuttiness re: this issue, some release dates have changed. I don’t have time to recheck every title, but I welcome correction (particularly if you work for a publisher).
