I have been using the following plugboard for my entire library:
{series}{series_index:0>2s| #| – }{title}

Unfortunately, this plugboard has some undesirable results for my manga and graphic novels. I end up with titles like:

Kasan #01 – Kasan, Vol. 1
Kasan #02 – Kasan, Vol. 2

I was wondering if anyone had come up with a way to remove the redundancy of series information like this? Is there a way to only show the series information if a book doesn't include a particular tag (like "Manga") or something like that?

I can't be the only one with a lot of books that are part of series, but don't have actual distinctive titles beyond volume information.
