[Publishing Recs][公開信] 請考慮出版這些漫畫♥︎ Ver. 親愛的青文出版社 [UPDATED on Sept 1, 2021]

會在不止一篇文章看見的聲明
我2021/1/13才正式決定直接也順便彙整曾經寫給出版社的漫畫推薦信成網誌那樣。網誌發布日期採用我最初寫給他們的日期嗯。

我這裡有人瀏覽的話感覺都是超潛水的幽靈,不過如果有人因為關鍵字搜索到,即使出版社直接看到的機率很小,贊同的話,出一點聲,久了累積的話感覺比較有效果。目前我也只知道一家出版社是有公開讓所有人看"已被回答的所有問題",我是覺得其他出版社如果讀者也看得到大家都在問什麼,是不是出版社們會比較積極一點呢xP


在做請求前,先來聊聊我跟出版社的關係(笑死)撇除最明顯身為讀者這點,如果沒讓出版社賺,感覺他們不鳥我也非常合理w 以下是我有購買的作品,依種類分類後的順序憑印象(僅供參考):
  1. 公式書/畫集:《青之驅魔師 口袋畫廊》、《青之驅魔師 正十字騎士團導覽書》、《加藤和惠畫集イロイロ》
  2. 沒買齊:《CLOTH ROAD 服裝戰鬥師》、《名偵探柯南》(只有三本抱歉)
編輯完[第二篇公開信]的時候覺得相較[第一篇]整個狀況慘烈... 結果這篇數目更是慘不忍睹愁雲慘霧啊xDDD 超丟臉(掩面)趕快講一下,《青之驅魔師》我真的,真的真的,有心動過!只是後來個人對劇情的喜愛程度時好時壞,也比預估的總集數多很多(我寫這的當下尚未完結啊!),所以還是會等完結後再評估。

但是!強調一下!青文這十年來真的出了不少我中意的作品!《不愉快的妖怪庵》、《怪物事變》和《一弦定音!》如果有出公式書(我寫這的當下連日方都還沒出)且代理,我是一定會捧場的!漫畫本身就要看完結後有沒有在我負擔能力範圍內了。其餘相較有望的,《SHADOWS HOUSE~影宅~》我翻閱實體書後才能評估(因為我看習慣的是全彩版)、《戀愛吧!和服少女》則是要看完結後狀況(這個也是尚未完結且比預估的總集數多很多)。稍後補個資料和連結。

狩獵範圍(誤):enterbrain、KADOKAWA、SQUARE ENIX、小学館、徳間書店/コアミックス、新潮社、白泉社、芳文社、講談社、集英社

(上方為個人認知內有交涉的,如有其他,歡迎告知!順序是按照sorting排,與出版數目多寡無關)


目前問書的下場算是我所有發問中相當良好的(我超感動)!我盡量直接複製我當時打的東西,除非太尷尬了才會省略(被揍);有些因為打字會自動加字(還加錯字)我在這裡會做更正,或是當時語意不明我也會修(會標示)。不想多次滑動或目睹我怎麼推銷(笑死)的人,以下為精簡版清單及小編回覆:

  1. 《加藤和恵畫集 イロイロ》:評估中 ☞ 可喜可賀!已由青文出版
  2. 《『山と食欲と私』公式 日々野鮎美の山ごはんレシピ》:會請專人評估確認
  3. 集英社 - ソウマトウ的《シャドーハウス》* ☞ 可喜可賀!已由青文出版
    1. 全彩版單行本電子書:目前全彩電子版以分話為主
  4. 集英社 - KAITO的《クロス・マネジ》*
  5. SQUARE ENIX - 島崎無印 & はま的《死霊術師のお手伝い》*
  6. 小学館 - 艮田竜和 & 雪山しめじ的《銀狼ブラッドボーン》*
  7. 小学館 - 黒郷ほとり的《リサの食べられない食卓》* ☞ 可喜可賀!已由青文出版
  8. 《『山と食欲と私』公式 日々野鮎美(+なかまたち)の山ごはんレシピ2》:等待回覆中
  9. 小学館 - 笹乃さい的《味噌汁でカンパイ!》:等待回覆中
  10. 小学館 - 荒井ママレ的漫畫版《461個の弁当は、親父と息子の男の約束。》 (原作:渡辺俊美)等待回覆中
  11. 徳間書店/コアミックス - 荒井ママレ的《アンサングシンデレラ 病院薬剤師 葵みどり》:等待回覆中
  12. 小学館 - 小林有吾的《アオアシ》:等待回覆中


*編號3~7的這5部因為是一併問,出版社沒有給我個別答覆,但:
"您好,您提的案子有部分已經跟日方洽談當中囉,請靜待好消息,謝謝!!"


下方還沒有完全編輯完畢!


2018/1/12, 10:54 AM

1. 《加藤和恵畫集 イロイロ》

加藤和恵画集 イロイロ|集英社コミック公式 S-MANGA

青の祓魔師 加藤和恵による大判画集『青の祓魔師』『ロボとうさ吉』『ホシオタ』『人狼〜メフィストの戯れ〜』──さらにはデビュー前の作品も!!秘蔵イラストを“イロイロ”収録!!

請問這本畫冊有考慮代理嗎? 如果台灣有出,價錢通常會比較好... 只有逼不得已的時候才回買原版... 希望能考慮一下!

[Series Overview] TodHunter Moon - Angie Sage

I started this series on: January 6, 2018

Written content here updated on: January 9, 2018

As I struggled to decide which book series to cover overviews for, it dawned to me that I'd never get started at this rate. It became clear to me that, it's rather unlikely for me to use this blog as my "main" reviewing spot since I have Goodreads for that, and chances of someone miraculously stumbling across this blog out of the countless ones out there, is just rather slim, therefore, I'd put up links to my GR reviews (in English,) and this post would be in Chinese for people who are curious about the series but either aren't comfortable with or just don't prefer reading in English.

Please also note that, sometimes I don't have time to write actual reviews, HOWEVER, I do always put down thoughts when I document my reading status updates, so for GR desktop users, remember to scroll down if it appears to contain little, it'd be under the quotes I liked from that book (when applicable lol;) for mobile app users, remember to switch to "Reading Activity," which would not be the default as "Review" is.




The actual review is, as usual, WIP, but like I said above, getting the post out there first.

The following section, basically a gallery of editions around the world with different book cover art, is largely inspired by treatments of fellow blogger Amethyst, who unfortunately hasn't done those types of blog posts for a while.

Please DO NOT mistaken the following to be all existing editions; I'm only including completed sets with matching designs. All clickable images are linked to respective editions on GR; people, shelving correct editions ain't that hard. Highly recommend accurate shelving. =D

2017 Year End Recap

(If you have a short reading attention span, feel free to just skip to the actual ranking, which you'd have to click into the blog post to view >:3)

This particular blog post is to first document what was actually published here on this blog in 2017 (some were backdated to earlier years). While my blog has been put back into action back at the end of 2016, 2017 was really the year I aggressively maintained the blog. For the [Food in Books] post, I know the reflex reaction may be 'how hard can creating those list be?', which is valid in regular circumstances, so I don't blame anyone who thinks like this; however, note that half of them were from ARCs at the time, meaning I could not actually copy and paste the text, and that was what that'd take more time and effort.

Note: Notice two font sizes below? The regular size matching this sentence and paragraphs above, are my makeup work for before. The smaller size (like this) are the ones that are posted extremely closed to, if not in fact on, the exact published date. Those, should there actually be casual viewers of my blog, are hard to miss, since the Blog Archive function reflects them quite well, and the backdated ones are what easily gone unnoticed, hence the emphasis.
  1. Manga Reading List

  3. [Food in Books] ランチのアッコちゃん - 柚木麻子 (Lunch no Akko-chan - Asako Yuzuki)

  19. [Food in Books] The Crown's Fate (The Crown's Game #2) - Evelyn Skye
This very post itself is published in 2021 and backdated. To be fair, I only vaguely played with the idea in 2017, and didn't really seriously consider it until 2 years later, then another 2 to actually take action. That said, to date (2021/4/13), 2017 still remained the craziest reading year for me! And because of this, I'm sharing, or a little closer to the bragging side, my highlights of the year. I had never met an author prior, and I met two incredible ones in the same year!


How cool was that? I debated putting the above later, but thought not ending the post with the ranking would just be odd lol. Anyhow, the first part being rather large was due to my relatively good productivity this year; I hope people are patient enough to reach this part, lmao. On Goodreads, there's the My Year in Books function they provided that give some statistics, [check out mine for 2017!] (My GR profile is set for GR Users only, so this one, you'd have to login in order to view.) There's also the Goodreads Year in Review, [read mine!] (no GR account required.) FYI, the list was actually too huge to the point I could not publish the content in my review, and had to resort to posting the updated version in the comment area of that review!

So what's different here is that I'm going to rank what I've read, but limited to series that concluded or standalones published in this year. Be ready, 2017 has a big list. And, ladies and gents, drum roll....!

[Food in Books] The Crown's Fate (The Crown's Game #2) - Evelyn Skye

  • Ch. 1
    • A chakchak cookie
      a cluster of fried dough piled together with syrup and walnut bits.
  • Ch. 3
    • What Pasha drank
      Damn alcohol. It was probably closer to samogon—homemade moonshine—than real vodka.
    • A platter of black bread and smoked herring
  • Ch. 7
    • Baguettes
    • Pains au chocolat
      (both Galina’s daily order from Madame Boulangère, a French bakery)
  • Ch. 25
    • Vika's tree with sweets
      Vika snapped her fingers, and deep-violet sugarplums appeared all over the tree, hanging by black licorice stems. The lower boughs of the tree grew heavy with enormous candy pinecones, each a different color and flavor, from strawberry red to marmalade orange to honeysuckle-berry blue. And tufts of white cotton candy, like sweet snow, floated down onto the branches. Wherever a child could reach, a treat could be found.
  • Ch. 31
    • A fresh tureen of borscht
    • Tarte à l’oignon
      a plate of miniature tarts, filled with caramelized onions, gruyere cheese, and thyme
      (both poisoned)
  • Ch. 33
    • Syrniki pancakes (with cottage cheese and honey; poisoned)

[Food in Books] The Crown's Game (The Crown's Game #1) - Evelyn Skye

  • Ch. 1
    • A tray of oreshki cookies, and the caramel-walnut confections
    • What Vika carried
      Ludmila laughed as she fetched a Borodinsky loaf, the dense Russian black bread that was Sergei’s daily staple. She wrapped the bread in brown paper, creased the corners, and tied it with cotton twine.

      Vika paid and tucked the bread into her basket, which contained a few sausages from the butcher and a jar of dill pickles from the grocer two streets down, where she had stopped earlier.
  • Ch. 4
    • Several crates of apples
  • Ch. 10
    • Kvass
    • A stale slice of bread
  • Ch. 16
    • A tray laden with bouillon, chicken à l’estragon, and apple tarts
  • Ch. 17
    • A croissant spread with strawberry jam
  • Ch. 21
    • A pitcher of beer
    • An ice-cold bottle of vodka
    • A cutting board filled with rye bread, smoked fish, and cucumber pickles
      (all from the Magpie and the Fox)
