EXTRAORDINARY MANGA TITLES

This post was inspired by the Top Ten Tuesday Tag on Extraordinary Book Titles because some manga titles could be pure WTF?!


The Wize Wize Beasts Of The Wizarding Wizdoms

Weird alliterative title goes perfectly well with weird were-animals studying to be wizards.


Hoppe Ni Himawari (Sunflower On Your Cheeks)

A cute story of a chubby boy who loves gardening and the baseball player who loves him.

Involves intense staring through the glass because train conductor was all shook up at seeing the love of his life


Blue! Blue! Blue!

A very summery age-gap love story with grown up vibes.


Ezuke wa Yahan, Ano Heya De (Midnight Feeding in that Room)

Vampires.

I guess that explains the title.


Gozen Yoji, Sasayaku You Ni (Whispering at 4am)

It’s one of those ghostly love affairs that always breaks your heart.


20xx.08

My first impression was that it’s about futuristic time travel but no. It’s really about dealing with the past.


Koi No Senryaku Management (Strategic Management of the Love )

A very cute gay-for-you romance about salarymen.


Taka to Tonbi to Aburaage (The Falcon, the Kite, and the Deep-Fried Tofu )

Who’s who and why, I have no idea. Adorable schoolboy romance.


Bibibi!!

Also absolutely no idea about the nonsensical title but this one-shot had me LOLing.


Mo’Some Sting

Could be a pun or a reference to something obscure. I liked this girl-centric BL story.


I Love You, Black Coffee

Because of the cafe setting?

More charming atypical BL stories from the author of Mo’Some Sting, Tomoko Yamashita.


Chishiryoubun no Ai o Komete (Insert a Lethal Dose of Love)

Nothing so literal as the title page. It’s really about a guy who didn’t know he was gay until he found The One.


Labradorescence

labradorescence. : a play of colors or colored reflections exhibited especially by labradorite and caused by internal structures that selectively reflect only certain colors.

Something the MC mentioned that was relevant at some point.


Realist ni Yoru Romanticism (Romanticism by the Realist)

A riff on the rich man x poor man trope made popular by Junjou Romantica


Irony Dress ni Sayonara (Goodbye to Irony Dress)

A beautifully executed story about a cross-dressing boy and his older boyfriend.
