Takoyaki Princess © Mizuho Rino/Shogakukan [First serialized in Ciao]
Published in Indonesia by Gramedia/m&c!
m&c! finally uploaded the covers for this Wednesday's manga and light novels release. Babble commences.
Love is Everywhere Valentine manga ♥ Part II
You know by now that Love is Everywhere
is the catch-all for m&c!'s Heart Day 2011 romances (one-shots) and actually, there's a promo: If you buy three of the standalones between 20 January and 20 February—in selected Gramedia book stores—you get the chance to join a lucky draw. Up for grabs are Blackberry smartphones and iPod Shuffles. I will be posting a more complete advisory (which Gramed outlets are participating), but in the meantime, you can check out m&c!'s Twitter for details (here, here, here, here and here).
