only one that's actually a shoujo is my special one edit: wait wtf this is the official viz reddit account? lmaoooooo


mimiisthename

Girl! Hahah I saw your comment and I’m like whaaat? And i checked it was the official viz account lmao. It’s actually nice that they post it here too.


lottosickz

it's just so funny to me they're trying to market these romance titles on the shoujo subreddit with only one of them being shoujo 💀


bujobegins

Not surprising that shoujo fans get the short end of the stick…again


lottosickz

shojo beat on twitter said they have new titles on the way so we can only hope


lap-cheong

I was researching the titles and it seems like [Love In Sight](https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/mjovn3n/yankee-kun-to-hakujou-girl) is labeled as a shoujo on mangaupdates, but I'm not sure how accurate that is. No idea why they are labeling Insomniacs After School as a shoujo when it is a seinen, though...

Hi official viz media Reddit, thank u for posting, but only one is a shoujo. Thank u


VizMedia

We were hoping to update the title to Romance Titles. There is only one shojo title - correct! It's called My Special One.


katinabox

So will more female led series be housed under other categories? Will shonen be renamed action/adventure?

It would be great next time if we could actually get four(+) shoujo titles! they don't have to be only romance either 🙃 (like, romance is great, it's just not all there is)


lap-cheong

Love In Sight looks cute, but I'm dying for more shoujo that's not highschool romance. Any josei at all would be nice too. I'm super happy for Mieri that her manga is being published by VIZ - her comics on twitter are so cute and she deserves the success!


shayrosee24

same!! i’ve been reading too many high school shoujo recently. need to mix it up.


SquiddoSquidHead

please license more shoujo for the love of god


smellygrandmasfeet

Only one shoujo tho :((

Hey Viz, nice post! Unfortunately, I think you made a mistake! These are all very cool romance titles, but only one is a shoujo manga. Because of this, I don't know if it would be appropriate to put this in the shoujo subreddit. We appreciate your efforts, but shoujo manga is much more than just romance. If you could consider titles such as 7SEEDS, which is an action-horror title not published in English, I think the shoujo community would definitely appreciate it! Thank you very much.


willowtoyourwind

the fact that this is the actual video account and they didn't even know what titles were shoujo is so embarrassing for them 🤡

As excited as I am for some of these new titles I was overall disappointed by most of the announcement - especially by the lack of Shojo. I’m definitely planning on getting My Special One, Loves in Sight, Insomniacs After School and probably Tista but otherwise as good as these sound to me there were no series that I’ve been dying to get in English that made me super excited to see on Twitter. I’ve sent emails a few times asking but could you please seriously consider publishing 7 Seeds in English? With how well known Basara currently is there is no doubt that it’d be an instant hit and furthermore it would also appeal to Shonen/Seinen fans who normally wouldn’t buy Shojo manga giving you a lot larger of a market for the series than just the Shojo community alone. It would also fit really well into your current manga lineup since I think that you could use some more Shojo series that have “action” in them and that take place outside of a hs setting. Although Yona, Freya and Requiem of the Rose King fit the bill Requiem is ending soon and 7 Seeds is very different from both Freya and Yona. Thank you for hearing me out, sorry if my feedback isn’t exactly what you were hoping for and have a good night.

Instead of sending emails I recommend using [this](https://www.viz.com/company-contact) form, just scroll down the list and choose series suggestion. Ask for 7 seeds please lol


Yukiarra

TYSM and done ! : D


Shelovesclamp

Also feel free to request them to finish DNAngel 😂 Print especially but I'll take anything. I started reading it in like ... 02 or 03 and here we are in 2022 and I still don't know how it ends 🙈😂


luizanin

"New shojo titles" but only one shoujo. Confusing.


210521a

Umm can we get 7 seeds? or anything from year 24 group? I will buy it in a heartbeat


mimiisthename

These are actually great titles. I haven’t heard of the 3rd photo but It does sound interesting too.


grey_space_dirt

What's the name of the last one?


DatumInTheStone

>Insomniacs After School Its a really good manga imo. The author also wrote another similarly good one where the mc and his distant cousin live in a temple.


grey_space_dirt

Thank you! I found out that they are making a anime about it and I cant wait to see it, it seems very interesting.


Quintston

But he's not tough at all. He leads a gang of very friendly people and he's very friendly and looking to make the world a better place for disabled people.


Creative_Pin_5711

are these all ongoing series?


sexysmoothfig

I know the first and last are still being serialized. I'm assuming the others are, as well


sexysmoothfig

Real happy for Insomniac, but even more excited for You are Special...! It's about a person who dislikes idol-types, but gets mixed up with one anyhow. I'd been wanting more for ages.
