What exactly are the Graphic novels?  Are they the translated manga?

Yeah. Viz first puts them out in comic book form, then collects them
into "Graphic Novels". If you have the stories as comic books then you
don't need the GN's. Otherwise buying them is a lot easier than
collecting all the comic back issues!
