Nomenclature
Rather than the usual kanji for "man", 男, the Japanese name uses the kanji 漢, which carries an elevated connotation (an extension of this character's use for the Han Chinese ethnic group).
In Japanese, this series of the books is known as the Man's World series. In the English localization, the descriptions call it the Amazing Khan Saga. This is possibly due to the usage of the 漢 character as it can also be pronounced "kan".
