A LOT of the dates for publishing have been changed; most have been pushed way in the future, if not reverted back to the OH NOES of the publishing industry… T. B. A. 0_0
Most of the books that are TBA or where dates have been changed belong to DramaQueen. It might be an aftereffect of the change of their website. Their website is somewhat out of date at the moment, but it should clear up soon?
And HOLY MOLY! Lots of yaoi manga! Just the stuff that’s been added to this master list since I last updated is staggering. I nearly threw myself at amazon.co.jp to b go buy some of my favorites!. Especially Lovely Sick which I’ve raved about before and I shall rave again. Beautifully drawn, tragic story, warm fuzzy feelings abound. And just enough bondage to keep it spicy. XD Love it to pieces!
BeBeatiful seems to be back on its feet! Yay!
Here’s to hoping for more licenses! And more artists! The selection is still very sliim. This is barely a fraction of a percent of what’s actually available in Japan. A lot of my favorite mangaka aren’t even being represented, which makes me a sad puppy. I’ve noticed the trend in more explicit manga and less plot-based or character-driven manga. =( Not necessarily bad, but some of my absolute favorites are in the latter categories. Mou~
DISCLAIMER: Unreleased manga dates are rough or predicted. I take no responsibility if releases are abruptly changed. =P Also, if there are any broken or misdirected links, yaoi-related news that I might have missed, information that may be wrong, please tell me!

Date: 2007-03-28 05:52 am (UTC)One of my favorite ones is Oishii Kankei, sixteen volumes about a wealthy young woman who's father passes away and she tries to make it in the world of food (being that food is her favorite thing in the world) so she can support herself and her mum. There's very little romance (though there is some!) and the focus is on her trials and work. There was a Jdorama series made off it, and it's pretty good.
Another is Clover, which is more or less a love story set in a typical Japanese 'big' company. That's a really popular subject in josei manga; love at the workplace. Sometimes, we get the female superior falling in love with the male underling, but that's more common as a sideplot to the mainplot of the female underling falling for a male superior.
Oh! There's this absolutely KICKASS manga called Waru [A Bad Girl], I believe it's called. It's pretty old, so I doubt there's anything of it on the internet, but it ran 37 volumes and is one of my favorite, favorite manga of all time. I reread this one constantly, but the basic gist is this girl who becomes an OL (she's smart, but not quite so smart, she's a bit eccentric, trusting, silly, etc.etc.) due to family string-pulling. She graduated from a third rate college (this is pretty important for the time it was set in!) and was stuck in the 'unwanted' part of the company. (which basically means it's the place the company sticks undesirable employees that they have to employ... but don't want to. Most resign on their own within two years).
One day, in the first volume, she drops her bag and everything spills out. As she's gathering things, a guy picks up her compact and gives it back to her and says, "Douzo." Which is a polite way of saying, "here." She immediately feels the impact of that one word and falls head over heels in love with him. For the rest of the 36 and a half volumes, she simultaneously works her way to the top and looks for him. I won't tell you the ending, because it's the journey that makes the story.
Another one is Glass no Kamen. Some might consider this a shoujo series due to the big eyes, but this was drawn in the seventies, when big eyes were big and everywhere, so I don't take that into stock much. Either way, this is one of those manga series I'm seriously fond of also; I've been waiting, man, over ten years for this series to find some sort of conclusion. For my mum, it's even worse! She's been waiting since college! It's currently at V.42. The focus is on acting, as a job, as a profession, as a way of life. The romance is definitely secondary to Maya's life. =)
There's a lot more, but like I said, I don't remember too many being translated into English by either fans or manga companies. I read most of mine in Chinese (or if forced, in Japanese... which takes me days since I have to constantly refer to a dictionary!)

Date: 2007-03-29 12:00 am (UTC)You know how some lines put out certain genres in the US? That's the same with Japan; there are a couple publishing companies that deal mainly with josei manga. Next time I stop in the bookstore, I'll check which companies and give you the names.
A really popular one right now is Hataraki Man; I have V1, but I'm having a bit of a hard time understanding everything. -_-;;
