March 2023 Roundup!!

I knew the day would come but not this abruptly. The predicted decrease in my personal consumption of English licensed manga already came true (I read a record low 4 volumes of English manga in all of March) anddddd with the upcoming closure of Bookdepo, and imported books from america costing more and more I don’t think my commitment to english licensed manga will ever be the same. Luckily my favorite comic bookstore is still thriving and my local library system has done a huge effort in expanding their manga selection this past year so I won’t stop reading, but my personal collection of translated manga will not get much bigger. My Japanese collection however... 

I’m back to reading curated anthologies. One that got instant buzz was Mangaka! Sekai Bungaku: Tanbi to Heroine curated by Tosho no Ie and Hideo Yamada. This anthology is a selection of 1970-80s Shoujo manga adaptions of world literature (by “world” read Japan, Europe, and North America). The obvious star is Hideko Mizuno. The woman who raised the bar for what dramatic girls manga could be. For a long time she’s been away from the spotlight but recently has had a resurgence which led to the reprinting of her 1969 hit “Fire!”, the saga of a fictional Detroit rock band and its troubled lead man, Aron. The above mentioned anthology features her retelling of Cinderella which she based on the Brothers Grimm version. Her art in this story is so elegant and lavish I really hope the plans to reprint the rest of her bibliography is successful  so I can read even more. Check the anilist page to see who else is featured in this anthology! I’m also working through the 7 volume Shogakukan Shugyoku no Meisaku Anthology. Each volume is curated by themes such as “family”, “partings”, “tears” or “cats”! Its features primarily works and artists who are regulars in Shogakukan’s family of “Flowers” magazines aimed at girls and adult women of various ages and niches. Its very sneaky how its curated however using chapters from episodically serialized works. Regularly featured in the volumes are Moto Hagio, Akimi Yoshida, Akiko Hatsu, Yumi Tamura, and Keiko Nishi. I’ve really loved the picks so far the genres, settings, and themes are varied and span decades. Among the artists I’m reading for the first time through this series I’ve become very interested in exploring the bibliographies of Sakumi Yoshino and Misako Nachi once I get the chance. Check the anilist page to see the full table of contents!

And I love highlighting something silly and fun I read. Kaeranai Ojisan by Mariko Nishimura  is a gag manga about a group of middle aged men coping with a world that is trying to move on from the aggressive work ethic of the Showa era, by replacing overtime with... after work playtime. Together they do trust falls, skipping rocks on the water, stand in the middle of a train station in the middle of rush hour to feel like they’re in a drama, sword fighting with sticks, and practice NiziU choreography. Currently there’s a sequel series running and it recieved a short live action adaption fall of last year.

And I never formally said anything but Tokimeki Tonight is temporarily away from this blog until I do a reread. The caps were practically at the end of the Ranze arc and my Japanese has come a loooong way since I first read it so I want to go through it again with fresh eyes. In the meantime I will post from the side story Makabe Shun no Jijou! This 2013 miniseries shows us a bit of Shun’s childhood before the series started and what some of the main series chapters were like from his perspective. A cute little addition to the Ranze arc’s canon. 

Thank you for reading as always. Just feel the need to share that I’m moving away from licensed manga since that was such a significant focus of this blog and these roundups for so long. But its time for new priorities now that I personally don’t need translations for accessibility and buy manga licensed mainly bc it’s less of a logistic headache to acquire.

Sing a Song of Sex (Nagisa Oshima, 1967)

Cast: Ichiro Araki, Kazuko Tajima, Juzo Itami, Akiko Koyama, Koji Iwabuchi, Kazuyoshi Kushida, Hiroshi Sato, Nobuko Miyamoto, Hiroko Masuda, Hideko Yoshida. Screenplay: Tsutomu Tamura, Mamoru Sasaki, Toshio Tajima, Nagisa Oshima. Cinematography: Akira Takada. Set decoration: Jusho Toda. Film editing: Keiichi Uraoka. Music: Hikaru Hayashi. Politics and pornography intersect in Sing a Song of Sex, a film which, though it has four credited screenwriters, was largely improvised by its young cast. It's set at a time of political demonstrations, during which the teacher (Juzo Itami) of a group of young men preparing for their examinations tells them that bawdy songs -- the film's Japanese title has also been translated as A Treatise on Bawdy Songs -- are themselves a political statement, a way for the poorer classes to find release from oppression. And so the lines between fantasy and reality are blurred in the film as the young men act, if only in their imaginations, upon their desires, many of which focus on the pretty Mayuko (Kazuko Tajima), whom they depersonalize by referring to her by her seat number in class, 469. Often enigmatic, Sing a Song of Sex is the kind of film for which it's best that many of us just go along for the ride rather than to try to unravel its social and political implications, which are very much of a particular time and place.

The High School Fleet anime originally aired on April 7, 2016. Yuu Nobuta (A Good Librarian Like a Good Shepherd) directed the project at Production IMS, with Naoto Nakamura providing character designs. Reiko Yoshida (The Cat Returns, Girls und Panzer) was in charge of series composition for the show.

The title spawned an OVA, which hit retailers in 2017.

Aniplex of America currently holds the domestic rights to the High School Fleet anime. They describe the title as:

Living by the sea, protecting the sea, and journeying across the sea…They’re the BLUE MERMAIDS! Because of a shift in tectonic plates around 100 years ago, Japan lost much of its area to submergence. To preserve Japan’s territories, Coastal Cities sprung up, one after the other. Eventually, they became Marine Cities, and along with the expansion of sea-lanes to connect them, the need arose for a sizable staff to protect the seas. At the same time, maritime jobs were becoming more popular among women. Hence, the BLUE MERMAIDS, tasked with keeping the seas safe, had become every female student’s dream job. This is when childhood friends Akeno Misaki and Moeka China enroll in a marine high school in Yokosuka, along with other girls who share their goal of “BECOMING A BLUE MERMAID.”
