Neon Genesis Evangelion 11, Be a Naughty Girl 5 of 5, Kaicho's Kitten by Furumiya Kazuko (m&c! 9 March 2011 manga and manhwa)

Neon Genesis Evangelion 11 (m&c!)

Published in Indonesia as Neon Genesis Evangelion by Gramedia/m&c!

After the destruction of Tokyo-3 and Rei's sacrifice which saved Shinji's life, Shinji discovers to his astonishment that she is still alive. But is she still the same person? Meanwhile, Kaworu turns out to be the last Angel. Taking possession of EVA-02, he enters Terminal Dogma where Adam is confined. Shinji commences pursuit, but... [Mechanically translated from Glénat's French Neon Genesis Evangelion, Tome 11 description]

Kaworu~~. Nuff sed...NOT! Manga-ka Sadamoto Yoshiyuki announced the resumption of Evangelion's serialization just a week ago. Is it coincidence that a week hence, m&c! releases volume 11? (I think not; I don't believe in happenstance.) Now, wonder when m&c! will resume the spin-off Iron Maiden the 2nd?

Be a Naughty Girl 5 of 5 by Yeon Doo, Kim YeVin

Be it one or 100 years that have elapsed, don't ever forget that you love me.

Yeong Won and Ha Ru's love story wraps this release, but not before (1) the pair first parts and Ha Ru withdraws from school; (2) Ha Ru ask for Yeong Won to wait for his return; and (3) Yeong Won attempts to study her way back to rank 1.

Thinking of 5K'g (marathoning) the Be a Naughty Girl manhwa now...

New m&c! titles: Kaicho's Kitten and If Only You Were Here

Two shoujo manga premiere: Kaicho's Kitten by Furumiya Kazuko and If Only You Were Here by Morio Rina.

Kaicho's Kitten by m&c!

Student council prexy Hayami Rei'ichiro finds himself alienated from his peers because of his disciplinarian tendencies. One day, his workaholic mother (who doesn't live with him) dumps a kitten on Rei and asks him to take care of it. Fazed, Rei turns to the student council's resident cat otaku Shiraishi for help. [Additions from Baka-Updates Manga's Kaichou-san Chi no Koneko summary]

Cool × cute cat comedy is how the original Japanese blurb hypes this ex-HanaYume serial. “Megane × koneko” is mine.

Baka-Updates Manga adds that the Gakuran Ouji one-shot is also compiled in this tank. Kiyomi models the hero of her manga (also titled Gakuran Ouji) on Narumi-kun, for his absolute droolicious when wearing a gakuran. What will happen when Narumi-kun finds out what Kiyomi has been up to?

m&c! has also published these two other Furumiya Kazuko-sensei manga: My Dear Princess and Kimi to Scandal!. Furumiya-sensei is also credited with the vampire-troped Bloody Kiss; her current HanaYume serial is Navy Nats!.

Morio Rina's If Only You Were Here is previewed after the manga list.

BOX SETS: Bleach 13-18 and 19-24

In another bit of Just-in-Time-ness (Animax is set to premiere Season 2 of the anime this 18 March), m&c! value bundles Kubo Tite's Bleach volumes 13-18—still squarely in The Rescue arc—and volumes 19-24, which extends up to the battle with the Arrancar and Ichigo's encounter with the Visored. Each six-volume pack retails for IDR 95,000.

☆ The Elex 3.09 STO includes Majiko!'s Dynamic Duet volumes 1 and 2 as [reissues], but m&c! keeps quiet about the Mikansei No. 1 pair. Including, just in case.
