Bleach 39 of 49+ by Kubo Tite
Had it not been for Bleach Wiki, would never have guessed the cover of Bleach 39: El Verdugo
to be Ayon, the Chimera-esque “pet” created from the limbs of Tia Hallibel's Fracciónes, Apacci, Mila Rose and Sung-Sun. But without it, I still would've known that
All-out war breaks out in Karakura Town. Gotei 13 Soul Reapers face off with the ridiculously-powerful Fracciónes, but appear outmatched, outclassed, out-everythinged. Hinamori comes to the rescue of a cornered Rangiku, only to have them both swatted by Ayon, forcing Supreme Commander Yamamoto to...
OK, there are additions there from Bleach Wiki and the regular Wiki. In any case, you know what to do to find out what goes down in this latest Indonesian Bleach, compiling chapters 332 through 340.
New m&c! titles
Fully half of m&c!'s 3.30 asplosion discharges newbies, if you include the two Jagoan Koloni local titles (launching KOLONI's high-octane
action comics line). But even if you don't, 40% are still Pleased to Make Your Acquaintance. Let's not quibble over the fact that the 2×Watase Yuu anthologies—Books One and Two of Watase Yuu's The Best Selection—are actually recompiles of old one-shots, repackaged. Volume 1 DOKIDOKI Yagamin story!!
My Kingdom 1 by Yagami Chitose is definitely new, as are the triple-launched P.A.R.T.N.E.R comedy manhwa by Ryu Seung-soon that Lina-chan recs as a definite GET!
and the vampire-troped Ultramix Collection 1 by Mizuto Aqua. The Koloni Jagoan omnibuses are The Dreamcatchers and 1000 Giga Volts (click the orange titles for covers). The Dreamcatchers includes the eponymous story from Sweta Kartika, La Mia Indonezia
by Satrio Galih Wicaksono & Muhammad Ismail and Fatamorgana
by Mukhlis Nur & Wing Yudha. 1000 Giga Volts, meanwhile, consists of the antho christener by Bayu Harditama (creator of Jalan Komik), Atlas Chronicle
from Kababonken Comics (I Want to Live) and Samu'I
by Bening Andyani.
Watase Yuu the Best Selection
© Watase Yuu/Shogakukan
The lowdown on these new titles hides Behind The Cut, but mentioning up here that my only reason for contemplating buying Watase Yuu's The Best Selection—Book One, specifically—is the one-shot Touch You!
Despite or prolly because it is the Stay in Touch!
one-shot that closes Imadoki! volume 5, first published by m&c! in February 2003. (My copy carbon dates back to the April 2003 print run.) If only to read that short in original right-to-left, I would consider getting the first Watase Yuu Best antho. [Continued...]
Mangazines: Cherry 52/2011
[Kare to Kanojo to Kanojo]
© Morita Yuki/Shogakukan
The latest Cherry's front cover is Morita Yuki's Love Triangled Kare to Kanojo to Kanojo—ungrammatically rendered as She, Between He and Me—instead of “She, Between Him and Me” (yes, I'm a grammar nazi), or the canon subtitle Distance of our Love. I speculate Episode 3 of the ex-Ciao manga installs in this issue. (m&c! didn't provide a Table of Contents.)
Absence of a contents listing, however, doesn't stop me from assuming that these ChuChu/Ciao/Flowers serials can be found within: 7 Centi! by Nanajima Kana, I am not a Maid! by Iwaoka Meme, Kiss & Harmony by Takamiya Satoru, The Ring of God by Obara Shou, Super Sweet Honey by Aoi Michiru, Yomogi Loves Money? by Arai Kiyoko, Dawn Aria by Akaishi Michiyo and perhaps, My Lovely Class Leader by Nishimura Tomoko, the latter caveat based on how only a Gokujou!! Mecha Mote Iinchou side story, Blue Prince
(Oujisama wa Blue
), appeared in Cherry 51.
