A friend of mine will be working in Philadelphia this year so I thought he could pick me up a few volumes of english manga. The problem is, there are really so much licensed titles there, I am not sure what I want. So, is there a list of ALL the titles available in the US? I would also appreciate something about all the new titles that will come out from July-September and possible the best place to get manga (as I dont want anyone running around town trying to find the titles I want). Thanks in advance.

A pretty extensive list of US manga can be found here:

It lists which titles are still running, how many volumes they are in total, which ones have been discontinued, ect.

Dranxis: thank you, that website was exactly what I was looking for.

Hmm... I decided I will go with Pet Shop of Horrors. And maybe the first volume of Lone Wolf... does anyone know any major bookstores that may carry those? Something in Philadelfia.

Your friend should be able to find either of those titles in almost any Borders or Barnes & Noble, both of which are huge bookstore chains in the States. I just checked and there are about eight of each store in the Philly area. I also found a list of comic stores in the Philadelphia area (from the Master List of comic book stores in the United States and Canada.) Almost all comic shops carry manga as well. At least the ones where I live do. But Borders or Barnes & Noble should be just fine.
