letsgomeisei said: Are articles (a, an, the) considered the start of the title or not? For example, is the first letter of The Boxer the T or the B? Just wondering because I know sometimes lists and things omit the articles and I want to be sure. Yes, but if there's a synonym without the article, for example, you could use it instead. But it would be T in this case. |

| 1. Is it ok for us to use one of the titles of the work if its not it's English or Japanese title? The letter I need my next manga to start with is E and the SP x Baby Manga-Updates page has "Esupi x Beibii" listed as an alternative title. 2. I think this should be fine but the Manga Updates page for River's Edge has it listed as Psychological as a genre but the MangaList one doesn't. Is me linking the Manga Updates page for it and explaining that it's listed as a genre on that page enough proof? |

Yes, that's enough proof. |

| hello! regarding item #11, Read the first or earliest work of your favorite creator, does Comic☆Hoshi Shinichi count, what with it being a collection of oneshots featuring a different author for each chapter, one of which is from the creator i have in mind, or can i skip it and read the creator's next actual title, Shiroi Kumo? there's also the fact that Comic☆Hoshi Shinichi is marked as still publishing on mal. |

There unfortunately doesn't seem to be anything easily available that starts with Pu and ends with Bo. You'd have to find something that starts with Pu and ends with (let's say) A, and something that starts with A and ends with Bo. Basically something you can add between the syllables you're looking for. I say easily available because there are a few manga that do, but they're not translated or scanlated. Since you just read Re:LIVE, did you perhaps mean bu not pu? |

The symbol is so tiny haha ooh what you said makes a lot of sense. I'll try that. tyty Edit: With the last syllable ending with N. Do we only add the previous syllable or the whole word? I have 3月のライオン on my list but don't know if I should use オン or ライオン |

| I've narrowed down the hardest letters to find to chain with shiritori if you were going for all letters. These include: F G J P Q V W Z Some of these like Q and J will probably be impossible. If anyone has tips for manga ending in these letters let me know, and I'll update if I find any. |
Lainsbearsuit said: I've narrowed down the hardest letters to find to chain with shiritori if you were going for all letters. There's not a ton, but this should help. https://controlc.com/36b9b166 You just search for the starting or finishing letter you want like x:x. |

Also ん (n) really is confusing. Would this be valid for syllable challenge? 「チェンソーマン」 →「ニセコイ」 「Chainsaw Man」 →「Nisekoi」 Thanks in advance 🙏 Well, not the first page necessarily. @Soinkz didn't see you added that. It can be both on or n. Doesn't have to be the full word. 🤔 Yes, as there are no words that start with n, realistically, you can do things like man -> man or just man -> n*, so Nisekoi is valid. 👍 |

I'm surely not the only one to find this more challenging than previous iterations. You don't need to put the Japanese if you're using the romanized title. 🤔 Plus it goes against what you're doing, for example ラキア=/=やがて. What you're using aren't exactly syllables, Claymore (ore) -> oretama -> machida-kun no sekai (ai) -> air gear (ar) -> arte, though some of the Japanese titles match, but it's also valid, just not exactly what was intended. If you were using the Japanese letters, it'd be a single kana. Kureimoa -> a But like I said, doing more than one syllable is also valid. In case it comes up in the future, you can't chain something using two versions of a title, you have to choose one. For example, a -> Air Gear (エア•ギア) -> ア. It's either Air Gear or エア•ギア. It is more challenging for sure, that's why we added the last letter option, though it's still a bit of a puzzle. Feel free to ask any questions you might have. :) |

yube said: Sorry for asking, I need help with #105 Read a manga recommended to you by another participant in the discussion thread. Beginning with the letter E or ending with either B or V. I would also prefer if it was completed. Any genre is ok. Thank you. E has a smaller selection than most other letters, but there are some pretty good ones there. ES: Eternal Sabbath Eat-Man: The Main Dish (saw in your manga list that you enjoyed the prequel) Eagle (if you don't mind looping back to another E title, this fits the bill for the "same first and last letter" category) Esprit Eien no With Et Cetera As for your other criteria... Ouran Koukou Host Club (this is the most popular among them, but any manga that ends with Club would fit the bill) Prison Lab Bamboo Blade B Muv-Luv Code Name wa Sailor V |
