Fairy Tail box set: Volumes 1-10, Juvenile Remix 6, Dr. Koto 7 (Elex Media 5 October 2011 manga) [UPDATED]

Anyone ask for NikBabble™? (Yeah, I'm delusional.)

Juvenile Remix 6, Dr. Koto 7 (Elex Media)

Maou - Juvenile Remix © Isaka Kotaro & Osuga Megumi/Shogakukan [First serialized in Shonen Sunday] · Dr. Koto Shinryoujo © Yamada Takatoshi/Shogakukan [Currently serialized in Big Comic Original, formerly in Weekly Young Sunday]. Published in Indonesia as Juvenile Remix and Dr. Koto by Elex Media

If you GET! Fairy Tail, Volumes 1–10 boxed (as I did), be sure to throw in Elex's latest volume 11. That is, if you didn't already. If you want the latest, latest chapter available in Indonesia, however, run to Shonen Magz which serializes Mashima Hiro's award-winning shounen manga monthly. Issue 10/2011 streets the same day as the box set. Meanwhile, the next Japanese Fairy Tail—volume 29—releases 2011.10.17. Now on to the next DO WANT!

In ‘Think!’ It's your only weapon! Juvenile Remix vol. 6, only one question needs asking: Who will emerge the victor in the battle between Ando and Master?

Maou - Juvenile Remix ended its tankou run in Japan in August 2009. I think it will be awhile still before Elex's concludes, what with the approval skeds Juvenile Remix has had to work with.

As for Dr. Koto 7, our hardworking doctor flies to Hokkaido for a conference that unfortunately becomes the target of a lone sniper. He starts picking off the doctor attendees and is himself fatally wounded in the firefight with police. No one seems willing to help the dying gunman. No one except Dr. Koto...

Dr. Koto vol. 7: Berjanji (Promise) compiles chapters 68 through 78. If you're looking for the latest chapters available in Indonesia, check out Shonen Star. Issue 17/2011's already on sale, and Issue 18 is penciled in for 12 October.

Dr. Koto Shinryoujo is up to volume 25 in Japan (released 2010.07) and continues to serialize in Big Comic Original.

Crayon Shinchan vol. 9 has been postponed to the 12th, so don't look for it here. The first volume of post-Usui Yoshito-sensei Crayon Shin-chan Shin-Men, however, appears to be all set for its Japanese premiere (volume 1 releases on 17 November 2011).

Mangazines: Shonen Magz 10/2011
Landing the cover of Shonen Magz Issue 10/2011 — the got-mah-anime-greenlit Code:Breaker, which juxtaposes eye for an eye vigilante Rei with conscience sidekick Sakura, for what reviewer Jason Green calls Kamijyo Akimine's attempt at morality play. The series spotlight, however, shines on Yukimura Makoto's epic Vinland Saga. Scroll down for why.

Naruto 51, Wild Life 15, Yotsubato 10 (Elex Media 6 April 2011 manga) [UPDATED]

Also, Alice Academy 15 and not one, not two, but three series finales: Sanzoku Ou 13, Shade 3 and With My Brothers 11. Before you go checking 'em off the To Do List, check this out:

Naruto 51 (Elex Media)

Naruto © Kishimoto Masashi/Shueisha [Serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump]
Published in Indonesia by Elex Media

May contain   [SPOILERS!]

Naruto, still troubled by Sakura's sudden love confession, finally learns the intent of his Konoha peers: the elimination of Sasuke. As if that weren't enough, our hero gets a new shock when he hears the five Kage's decision from Gaara.

But of course the reason for Naruto 51's Sasuke vs. Danzo!! subtitle is Sasuke's capture of Konoha leader Danzo with Madara's help. Curtains rise on Sasuke's Revenge, Act II. [Additions from Kana's Naruto, tome 51 description]

(VIZ's Naruto, Vol. 51: A Hokage's Resolve, meanwhile, clarifies Sasuke's objective: to interrogate [Danzo] about the Uchiha clan and what really happened between the political factions of Konoha and his brother, Itachi.)

Yotsuba&! 10 of 10+ by Azuma Kiyohiko

While daddy Koiwai works, Yotsuba plays house under his desk. Then inspired by picture books, Yotsuba asks for lessons on how to make pancakes.

The above summary refers to chapter 64: Yotsuba & Pancakes. The other stories in the latest Yotsuba&! 10: Yotsuba & Play (chapter 63); Yotsuba & Jumbo (65); Yotsuba & the Electronics Store (66); Yotsuba & Home Appliances (67); Yotsuba & Lies (68); and Yotsuba & the Re-encounter (69). These are *NOT* Elex Media's chapter titles, and if you want the lowdown on the other six chapters, go here.

☆ I mentioned the 4.06 finales at the top of the post, and for three endings, Elex has one beginning — Mokke, the Family, Monsters, Shaman, Sisters, Spirits seinen slice of life manga from Kumakura Takatoshi, originally serialized in Afternoon. That preview and the rest of the summaries are (waaay) below.
