That biatch teacher's obsession with Seo GaYoon spirals into madness, leading her to plot Kang SongYie's demise. Her insanity ratchets another notch when GaYoon manages to thwart her plans, leading her to take that last step...

Oh noes! Will SongYie and GaYoon survive the terminal Jealous Hag attack?Considering Idol Shopping has three more volumes to hurdle before the finale, what do you think? :P

Now for the two doki-doki inspiring penultimates —

Female Wolf's Boy 16 of 17 by Han YuRang ♡

Cha EunSoo still hasn't gone home, throwing cousin No GyuHyeon, boyfriend Sin HoWon and pals into total panic. Ex-BF Gang JaeHee also joins the search for the tomboy who has stolen his heart, but his enemies capitalize on the rumpus to wreak revenge on JaeHee.

I believe JaeHee will be able to track down EunSoo and rout those goons as an afterthought. After all, not only is he the ult jjang, he has to live up to the previous Female Wolf's Boy and his promise to keep her by my side and protect her!, a line that continues to resonate and weaken this fangirl's knees, three weeks after the fact.

Edit » GOT!, read and am giving Female Wolf's Boy 16 a grade of 8 of 10. Would've been higher if not for Why choose that story path?? and weird cliffie.

Ugly Duckling Become Swan 12 of 13 by Hwang MiRee ♡

This kiss... Let this kiss determine everything. Open your eyes and look at me. Then choose, DoJin...

How will DoJin react when he receives incontrovertible proof that the Future Mother of His Children Mio is the fat Ugly Duckling! Mio he professes to hate? Well, according to the Ugly Duckling Become Swan 12 cover, he sweeps her up in his arms, so his reax can't be all that bad :D

Edit » GOT!, read and am giving Ugly Duckling Become Swan 12 a grade of 7 of 10 for Habits Die Hard obstinacy. (Yes, I allude to the both of them.)

Published in Indonesia by as Namaku Miiko! by Gramedia/m&c!

This ☂, VI [RE-STO] includes the first Miiko! series by Ono Eriko, Namaku Miiko!.

(The most recent Kocchi Muite! Miiko 23—the 20th anniversary tankou?—streeted 2011.03 in Japan.)

Also among the 14 titles restocked are m&c! AMERO comics, including volumes 1 to 3 of Mike Mignola's 10-volume Hellboy series—(1) Seed of Destruction, (2) Wake the Devil and (3) The Chained Coffin and Others—all still priced at IDR 45,000/volume.

I know you've been waiting for this. Not Miiko's high heels, specifically, but anyway. Miiko decides that high-heeled shoes make her look older, not to mention stylish. Then she goes and complains to Mama when her feet hurt!

Let's see what else our genki grade-schooler gets up to in Hai, Miiko! 22, now in book stores and newsstands.

Female Wolf's Boy 8 of 17 by Han YuRang

For entertainment as rame as Hai, Miiko!, check out what's happening in Female Wolf's Boy. To “bind” Mister Gang to her so he doesn't stray, Eun Soo tries to change her image. But Jae Hee actually finds Eun Soo's efforts... weird, to say the least.

Meanwhile, Yeon Ha Yeon hasn't given up trying to break up Jae Hee × Eun Soo and attempts some new nuisance. But Ha Yeon doesn't even register on the trouble radar: Jae Hee has found out that Eun Soo once kissed Ho Won, and orders Eun Soo to vanish from his sight!

New m&c! manga: Goal Den Age and Togetherness

m&c!'s premiering Goal Den Age by Takaoka Eisei & Tsunamoto Masaya is a short shounen sports series, soccer-themed, but you already inferred that from the manga title.

Despite being crazy over soccer, Fujiyama Kazu has never had the benefit of training, so his skills remain so much untapped potential. This stands to change when two mystery men invite him to join the the U-16 national squad.

Wagata Konomi's Togetherness, meanwhile, finished its Indonesian serial run in Cherry, so it's not really a new-new thing. If you missed the installment, here's the lowdown on the Ciao manga originally titled Isshoni Kaero:

Shiori doesn't like dogs, so it's just karmic that she gets charge of a dog named Ken upon request of her crush Saito. Ken's not like other eager to please dogs and annoys Shiori to no end with his canine arrogance.

But doggitude's not the only thing Ken's got going for him; aside from fluency in barking, he can also speak... human??

Last September, Cherry released a Togetherness side story, My Family Problem, but I don't know if this is included in the tankou.

Finales: How to make a Princess and Shanimuni GO

In the finale of Izumi Asuka's How to make a Princess —

Tanaka Maria thought she was an orphan, but apparently, her father is still alive. And not only is he alive, he rules a kingdom, which explains why two cool butlers come to live with Maria.

Being the king's daughter and next in line for the throne has made Maria the target of discontents. Can butlers Rufus and Yuri protect the princess?

Meanwhile in the shoujo Tenipuri, Shanimuni GO —

The men's singles finals. Ruui wins the first set, while the second goes to Nobuhisa. Now down to the final set, which player will emerge the interhigh champ?
