The cover of the third Code:Breaker tankou is the cover of Shonen Magz 3/2011, but the hype focuses on Chinmi, actually, Chinmi's pal Shi Fan, in Chinmi The Other Story. Before you roll your eyes, Elex is quick to reassure: Chinmi The Other Story doesn't lose out to Kungfu Boy Legends in terms of action.)
