Charma Doujinshi - A (Somewhat) Comprehensive Spreadsheet
For my fellow Charma fans, I put together a spreadsheet of every doujinshi I was able to find, all the way back from 1979 to today (or at least until the next Comiket). I say *somewhat* comprehensive because I know there are plenty of books I'm likely missing, especially anything older than the 2000s.
First tab is the list, second is graphs and data visualization, and the final is the rules I follow when adding things to the list. You can filter the columns by selecting Data -> Filter Views -> Create New Temporary Filter View.
Of course, it's very a much a work and progress so things will change over time. Enjoy!
found the manga magazine cover that gerard was holding in this picture. It went by both MangasZene and MangaZone It looks like a majority senin/josei fan magazine, with some focus on shojou and and shonen. According to the translated wiki page (below), It also was one of the earlier european manga/anime magazines to focus more generally on japanese youth culture outside of manga or animation, including fashion music and video games. It also had a strong fan driven bend, as a few of the covers and centerfolds seem to be fanart, and the mag had fan letters, fanfiction, and dojinshi involved as sections in the comics (more info under the cut)
Common inclusions mentioned are clamp (xxxholic and chobits both appeared on covers either by name or in the cover art) ghost in the shell, a manga I dont know called the geisha (or "die geisha" in german), and Nana amongst others. Gerard almost definitely bought this because it had a cool goth girl with a fuckass bob and huge boots on the front curled up next to an androgynous probably-vapire-maybe-dude character with VAMPIRE in all caps printed directly next to them. I know his ass can't read german.
I haven't been able to find any scans of the inside or any articles outside of the front cover centerfolds and occasionally the fist page of ads. This post is also just a quick and cursory few google searches, so maybe I'll find more info if I keep digging.
Here you can find the original german language wikipedia article which discusses mangasZene (rough google translate english translation below the cut, but I can't confirm its complete accuracy as i know zero german)
Here are high quality cover scans for seemingly every issue on an auction site called lastdodo
If you want to send me money so I can bid on and buy a copy of the german language japanese culture magazine that gerard way read once in 2005 so I can do a youtube video reading and discussing it donate to my buy me a coffee
MangasZene was a German-language specialist magazine for anime (Japanese animation) and manga (Japanese comics), which appeared regularly from 2001 to 2006 and was discontinued after another special issue in autumn 2007.
MangasZene was founded by former editorial staff of the anime and manga magazine AnimaniA. The first two issues from January 2001 and March 2001 were still published as MangaZone before the title had to be changed for naming reasons.[1] When it was founded, MangasZene was the first German-language magazine that went beyond concentrating on Japanese comics and cartoons and also shed light on Japanese youth culture as a whole. In addition to anime and manga reviews, it offered reports on games and Japanese music and lifestyle. In addition, the reader should be given the opportunity to contribute and help shape the magazine through discussion corners, letters to the editor, fan gallery, dōjinshi and fanfiction corner and the opportunity to write guest contributions.
At the end of 2006, the publication of the magazine, which had been published every two months, was abandoned in favor of the plan to publish special issues limited to a specific topic at irregular intervals, each with an adjusted size, price and circulation. However, this was only realized with a special issue about Yuri and Yaoi in September 2007. In October 2007, insolvency proceedings were opened at the district court in Cologne against the publisher Erbschläger & Holzer. According to a statement from the editor-in-chief, further publications by the MangasZene in printed form are no longer planned.[2]
Other editorial activities The MangasZene editorial team has also organized the “Bonenkai” anime convention several times (2001 in Karlsruhe, 2002 in Leverkusen, 2004 and 2006 in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse). At the end of 2002, the DVD label Anime House was launched. Since this label no longer belonged to the Erbstosser & Holzer publishing house, it was not affected by the insolvency proceedings.

Scepter Hall Institute was an academy residing within the lost island of Nevermore — An island crossed out of most of the maps in Twisted Wonderland.
The academy was large, far larger than the likes of Night Raven College and Royal Sword Academy. So much so, that it wasn't much of a surprise that it took up the space of an entire island.
Originally, the institution resided within the grounds of Briar Valley. It wasn't called Briar Valley back then, however… After a certain incident, Scepter Hall lost a great deal of connections.
Most of what was left of the original campus was so desolate that it was practically impossible to repair it with magic. That much destruction required quite a sum of power to be repaired, and Eclair wasn't ready to risk anything after what happened in ‘The Attack’.
So, with the assistance of a little magic, they found the island of Nevermore, way back when it wasn't crossed out of the maps.
But, with so much space and only eight dormitories to care for, Eclair needed much more assistance. And she felt it was too hefty of a task for students.
In walks, the Wardens.

↳ 『 Who are the Wardens, and what do they do? 』
˚₊· ͟͟͞➳❥ The Wardens are the leading caretakers of all eight dormitories in Scepter Hall Institute. In total, there are four Wardens, with two dorms each to care for.
➜ The Wardens guarded the seasonal domains of Nevermore Island and were chosen for the simple fact that they were the best qualified for the job — Intellectually, and magically.
˚₊· ͟͟͞➳❥ The Wardens are the third highest authority in the academy. The first being Eclair, the second being Madam Maryse.
➜ Due to the constant scheduling of certain errands for the headmistress and her secretary, students often go to the Wardens to not add to the stress Eclair and Madam Maryse have to put up with.
➜ In a way, the Wardens act as ‘the dorm leaders’ for each of the dorms.
