Emile Chronicle Online Gaiden Delta Saga © Tsutsumi Aya, Broccoli · GungHo Online entertainment, Inc. · Headlock Inc. Published by Flex Comix (Softbank Creative)
Published in Indonesia as Emile Chronicle Online Delta Saga by Elex Media

Revenge drives Delta, one of the few survivors of a village massacre, to hunt down who orchestrated the attack. The quest to avenge Delta's loved ones has begun...

To ECO players, the Delta Saga manga won't be a total stranger like the guy who wiped out Delta's hometown. So let me pose this question to you: how game-faithful is the manga? (The Japanese blurb I found warns about this.)

Other Tsutsumi Aya manga
If you want titles beyond Delta Saga, toggle this link; I don't want to keep peeps drooling for the latest Pandora Hearts waiting.

Tsutsumi Aya is also credited with the shounen romance comedy Akuma de Moteru xxx, currently serialized in Jive's Comic Rush (two CR COMICS volumes per 2011.08), 12C -Twelve Crysis- (running in Enterbrain's Famitsu Comic Clear; two volumes as of 2011.02), the ongoing shoujo series Kosu*puri!, written by Hamada Shouko (two Flex Comix Flare volumes between 2009.09 and 2010.03) and the shoujo fantasy/romance Love Root Zero (five Fairbell Comics volumes from 2007.09 to 2010.02).

Tsutsumi Aya collaborated with Takemura Youhei in I-Revo -Ice Revolution-, first serialized in Jump SQ (three of three Jump Comics tankou published between 2009.03 and 2009.11).

Most recently (as in fresh from the press) is the game strategy guide, Monhan-mochi ga dekimasen. “Monsutāhantā” Purei Manga, published by Enterbrain that streeted in Japan just last Friday (9 December).

Pandora Hearts vol 15 of 16+
By Mochizuki Jun

A sinful soul trapped in the darkness of Sabrie seeks redemption in a contract with Humpty Dumpty. After realizing the truth hidden behind uncertainty, the master follows the dictates of conscience. This all to save a soul...

Yup, Elex went literary on us again with the Pandora Hearts 15 preview. So let me quote what Pandora Hearts Wiki sez about this volume:

As Elliot regains his true memories by rejecting Humpty Dumpty as his Chain, Isla Yura's attempt to recreate the Tragedy of Sablier comes to it's climax. The mystery of the The Head Hunter unfolds...

Pandora Hearts 15 compiles Retrace LVIII through LXI: Puddle of blood, Couldn't Put Humpty Together Again, Egg Shell and Demios. [Not Elex's chapter titles] The latest chapter bound in a tankou is Retrace LXV: Collapse, collected in volume 16 (streeted in Japan 2011.11.26).

Mangazines: Shonen Magz 12/2011: Tokkyu! and Fairy Tail

[Weekly Shonen Magazine]

Erza (Elsa), Natsu and Jellal (Gerald) from Mashima Hiro's Fairy Tail strut their stuff on the cover of the latest Shonen Magz, but Komori Yoichi- & Kubo Mitsuro's elite SAR team Tokkyu! grabs the featured series spotlight:

Just as Hyogo's relationship with Yuri (remember her?) looks like it's actually going somewhere, a strong earthquake rocks Indonesia, and Hyogo is dispatched to Jakarta!

Needless to say, this assignment is not usual Hyogo fare, but the split-up? Let's just say fate wants Hyogo to get used to separation. .:straight face:.

In addition to Fairy Tail and Tokkyu!, these serials also continue: BECK by Harold Sakuishi, Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE by CLAMP, School Rumble by Kobayashi Jin, Code:Breaker by Kamijyo Akimine, Ghost's Doctor by Sato Yuki, Blazer Drive by Kishimoto Seishi, Kungfu Boy Legends by Maekawa Takeshi, Vinland Saga by Yukimura Makoto and Ninja Clan by Shigahaku.

Collecting any of the above series? Reminding the latest tankou releases: Kungfu Boy Legends volume 10 and BECK 29 (released 2011.11.30), Ghost's Doctor 8 (10.12), Fairy Tail 11 and Vinland Saga 7 (9.19), Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle 17 (2010.10.27), Tokkyu! 15 (2010.10.06) and School Rumble 11 (2010.06.16).

Published in Singapore as Ouran High Host Club by Chuang Yi

No more Ouran hosts? The Chairman succeeds in mothballing the Host Club and Haruhi's fangirls are shocked to see their bifauxnen revert to her pre-Host Club “ugly duckling” self in Ouran High Host Club 17. Haruhi has her reasons, but...

Meanwhile, despite his father's meddling, Tamaki continues to pursue his grandmother's approval, which further levels up the drama. As Chuang Yi puts it: It's an emotional volume of Ouran High Host Club, not to be missed! (BTW, this Chuang Yi volume has caught up with the Japanese tankou, released last September.)

Karneval—which premiered at the recently-held STGCC 10—is also available now. Special Abilities, Friendship, Circus, Amnesia, Secret Organizations comprise the top Baka-Updates Manga tags for this ongoing josei fantasy adventure from Mikanagi Touya, but the real draw are the bishies, voiced by some of the most droolicious seiyuu in the biz. At least three drama CDs have been released (with a fourth on the way), featuring Shimono Hiro and Kamiya Hiroshi as leads Nai and Gareki, supported by Miyano Mamoru as Yogi, Ono Daisuke as Hirato and Endou Aya as Tsukumo.

Karneval 1 of 6+ by Mikanagi Touya

ISBN : 978-981-4323-18-5
SRP: SGD 8.90

When innocent country boy Nai sets foot into the sordid, cutthroat realm of the city, he might as well have painted a target on his own back. Kidnappers, murderers and desperados abound, waiting to take advantage of a boy guileless enough to believe blood is merely 'red water'. When he is framed for a murder, it is the bandit Gareki who bails him out. Being a shrewd and sharp-eyed thief, however, Gareki's motives are less than pure. Nai is looking for a friend who has disappeared and left behind something particularly intriguing - an I.D bracelet from the organisation named 'Circus', the country's supreme defence agency. While Gareki has his sights set firmly on the bracelet, 'Circus' in turn, has shifted its eye onto the duo as well.

Reunions—clashes?—your mileage may vary. But for sure, Zero × Yuki; Sakura × Tenkōsei; and Sebastian × Grelle (who probably would've voted our Beauteous Black Butler “My Groom,” were s/he, Grelle, not ineligible). Character Growth encounters dot the ficscapes of Vampire Knight 12, RINNE 3, Black Butler 3 like so much... whatever dots alot. Blood sprays, maybe?

And speaking of that crimson stuff, there's a lot of it spilt on the pages of Afterschool Charisma 4—which might really consign history's clones to the dustbin of history—and in Black Lagoon 9 as Killer Maid Roberta continues her Dance of Death.

Chuang Yi simplified Chinese manga (2010.10.19)

Initial D © Shigeno Shuichi
Kodansha/Young Magazine

The simplified Chinese Initial D catches up to the Japanese tankou with Chuang Yi's release of 头文字D #41 this coming Tuesday. Actually, we can say the same for Akamatsu Ken's Mahou Sensei Negima! and Arakawa Hiromu's Fullmetal Alchemist, the latest simplified Chinese installments of which also street the same day. Both 魔法老师 #31 and the penultimate 钢之炼金术师 #26's 10.19 street date beats the November skeds of Japanese Negima volume 32 and the Hagaren finale (volume 27), 2010.11.17 and 2010.11.22 respectively.

Only the Chinese Defense Devil #5 lags behind; Youn In Wan & Yang Kyung Il's ＤＥＦＥＮＳＥ　ＤＥＶＩＬ　６ went on sale last September.
