[edit] Clarification

""In continuous publication since 1976 with over 1400 chapters, Kochikame is the longest-running manga series in history (only Golgo 13 has been around longer, having been in publication since 1968).""

How is it the longest running manga series if Golgo 13 has been around longer? Did they mean it's the manga with the most chapters?--Brand

Golgo 13 hasn't been running continuously. Kochikame has. Also, Doraemon has been around since 1969, but also hasn't been running continuously and thus comes in second to Kochikame. 71.203.209.0 15:59, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Doraemon the manga isn't even running anymore, it ended in 1996 i believe. Abu-san has been around since 1973, but I'm not sure whether or not it's been in continiuos publication or not (as it only has 90 volumes so far, even though I'm pretty sure Big Comic Original is a weekly release).

[edit] Huangliangzhuzhendaoyuyanda....

Is that really a character's name? I've never read the series before, so I wouldn't know. It needs to be fixed to where it doesn't run off the page in any case. And as a non-reader, I'd like to know more about why he's named that and what it means.--SeizureDog 23:50, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, it's really a character's name. I'll see what I can do to get it more readable and not off the page. ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 20:10, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chapter titles

It might be useful, with the mention that each chapter has "no Maki" in the title, to translate the phrase. For those of us who don't know Japanese. —Quasirandom (talk) 21:11, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It means "Chapter of", basically, and it's not really worth mentioning on here as many manga series use "no maki" in their chapter titles. Most translators, both professional and fans, don't even bother translating it into the title (ex: "Chapter of Ryo-san is Early!?" becomes "Ryo-san is Early!?").
