The clot, errr, plot, thickens in the bishounen smorgasbord that is Mikanagi Touya's Karneval — with Nai's true physiological disposition shocking the wits out of Gareki and making the country's most formidable defense organization Circus all the more intrigued by the quondam innocent country boy
in the second volume.
Life and death drama also escalates in volume 5 of Kujō Karuna's Aphorism: an Eclipse shows up before Tomonaga and Group Four and the students are once more divided and whisked off to their next deadly challenge. (BTW, the simplified Chinese edition of Aphorism volume 4 also streets the same day.)
The rest of Chuang Yi's previews and covers are after the manga list.
