previous FLC (21:59, 24 May 2008)
I am renominating this list as I believe it meets all of the FLC criteria. Everything is well sourced with reliable references, the lead is comprehensive and provides the relevant details normally found in a chapter list with an appropriate image in the upper right corner. It has also been reformatted to match current FLC standards of not repeating the list name in the lead. The list itself is well-formatted, comprehensive, and complete. The individual volume summaries are of a reasonable length for 200 page volumes with a fairly complex story line, with all but two under 300 words. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 18:53, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose
- "Wataru Yoshizumi; the first premiered" – "Wataru Yoshizumi. The first chapter premiered"
- "released February 20" – "released on February 20"

- "76 episode" – "76-episode"
- "releases in in France" – "releases in France"
- "by Grupo Editorial Vid , in" – "by Grupo Editorial Vid, in"
- this can actually probably be completely rewritten: "The manga series is licensed for regional language releases in in France by Glenat, in Mexico by Grupo Editorial Vid , in Spain by Planeta DeAgostini Comics, in Italy by Planet Manga, and in Germany by Egmont." – "The manga series is licensed for regional language releases by Glenat in France, Grupo Editorial Vid in Mexico, Planeta DeAgostini Comics in Spain, Planet Manga in Italy, and Egmont in Germany."
- "2002, releasing new volumes" – "2002 and released new volumes"
- "released August " – "released on August "
- "The cover of the first tankōbon volume of the Marmalade Boy manga released in Japan by Shueisha on December 12, 1992." – "The cover of the first tankōbon volume of the Marmalade Boy manga released in Japan by Shueisha on December 12, 1992"
- I have yet to take a look at the summaries.

- All fixed except the last one cause I can't tell what the change was. I made a change to it, though that hopefully fixes whatever was wrong? I completely redid the lead after it had already been copy edited, but the summaries should still pretty much be good (I hope) since its CE in April/May. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 20:11, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- "that they are going to divorce" – "that they plan to divorce" Gary King (talk) 20:18, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 20:25, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- "that they are going to divorce" – "that they plan to divorce" Gary King (talk) 20:18, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support, sources are okay and the summaries are easy to understand by anybody who has not read the series. The lead and the image are also good.Tintor2 (talk) 17:33, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
