Sukeban Deka (1975) by Shinji Wada

A couple of things I received in the mail this week.
Wada Shinji Artworks
Released in 2022 this book, which commemorates 10 years since Wada's death, covers an extensive assortment of artwork from the artist's catalogue including finished colour pieces, manuscripts and comments.
Truly if you're a fan of Wada this book is for you, it is very comprehensive; offering insight into his processes as well as exquisite finished artwork. It does something I'm normally not a fan of in art books, which is spread artwork across pages and combine several illustrations to a page in some places.
However, this book feels like a journey through Wada's career (grouped together by thematic elements like historical titles or suspense titles) and each page is composed in a particular way as part of telling this story so I actually don't mind it all that much. No, not the best for scanning but I don't think a book like this should be about scanning - it's about walking down Wada's path and rediscovering (or igniting) a sense of respect and affection for his works. In that sense, I really do think this book is successful.
I'm old but not old enough to have grown up reading Wada's stories (I was only introduced as a teenager with Sukeban Deka, which immediately captured me because it combined detective themes with action) so I can't speak as an authority on his works or career. But I believe most fans of manga will take something away from a detailed retrospective like this and as such, I highly recommend it.
Lab-Garnier's Magical Emi doujinshi
The latest in Asamiya Kia's long line of full-colour heroine doujinshi volumes which can veer between featuring cute, harmless pics, cheesecake shots and some more softcore illustrations (such as the one he did for Saimebi's Lebia). I had hoped this one would just be on the cute side of things given that Mai from Magical Emi is IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL however, this was not to be.
While there are a couple of fairly harmless shots of Mai, which I've included here, there is also a double-page panty shot spread and a bath illustration of her naked. 🤢🤢🤢 I had thought Yui from Corrector Yui eating ice cream in her book was bad enough, but this is on another level of NOPE. I'm posting this to save others from making the same mistake I did. This isn’t cute, it is gross ass shit.
Ranma 1/2 Ciao Magazine stickers
Ciao magazine shares a lot of shounen collab content, particularly Meitantei Conan, but in the November issue they actually included some Ranma content (timed obviously with the new anime series’ release).
While I’m not a big Takahashi-head, I had to get the magazine issue specifically for these stickers because I fell in love with the designs. Truly, an insert sticker sheet did NOT have to go this hard. If nobody else has scanned them I’m happy to do so, but Ranma has a lot of dedicated fans so it may not be necessary. I am happy I got these for myself though, very cute little insert that highlights Takahashi’s iconic artwork in a way that will appeal to young girls.

One of my most precious possessions from when I was a very small child is a Vietnamese translation of Pygmalio by Shinji Wada with this story in it. The issue I have is worn to pieces. Maybe I’ll find it and post it. The chapter was about a magical boar and a huntress who befriends him, but for some reason his snowy handmaidens freeze the huntress in a block of ice. It’s printed in this very interesting way where it’s double-sided. If you read from the back, it’s an issue of Touch by Mitsuru Adachi, and if you read from the front, it’s this story. I did this manga page redraw from that chapter.

First time I'd ever seen anything like it, but apparently Shinji Wada, here with DMBQ, is known for his 'crowdsurf drumming'

Last night I tried to sketch what I thought Mako would look like in Shinji Wada’s style. I’m afraid to ink it.

Anyone want to translate re: sukeban deka with me? Re: Sukeban Deka is a remake of the original Sukeban Deka manga but from what the mangaka said, apparently he upgraded the production of the manga in his retelling of it. I'm personally just interested to translate it since I know it will get more people into the series because of the modern artstyle and I want to compare it to the original.
I'm a cleaner/typesetter, I just need someone to translate it for me and provide the raws. If you're passionate about translating sukeban manga in general, please let me know!
The first volume of the remake is free to read digitally until the end of 3/29, i linked it as well.

Something I really want to do one day, whether here or elsewhere, is compare the original Sukeban Deka, one of the most notable shojo manga ever, with its current remake drawn by Ashibi Fukui, the Nine Dragons’ Ball Parade/Ano Natsu 1959 author. Like that’s an interesting artist to choose for a remake, and one I feel like could pay off, depending on how strict a remake it is.
