Yes, yes, Bleach 42 is the m&c! top DO WANT!, but as Urasawa Naoki × Tezuka Osamu's Pluto ends this release, the latter gets the pix lead while the former has to settle for first blurb. Okee?
Gotei 13 faces off against the top three Espada, but in the midst of battle, Garganta rips open! Who joins the fray — friend or foe?
As Garganta is how Arrancars and Hollows move to and from Hueco Mundo,
what are the chances that it's gonna throw up a friendly? :P

Hakusensha [Lala Special]
Published in Indonesia as
Fragments of Summer
by m&c!
Miyuki barges into the wrong hospital room, and comes face to face with the rudest guy on the planet. Or so it seems. Still, she ends up spending days with Madoka and they actually become friends plus.
But Miyuki's countryside stay has a deadline, and it is fast approaching. What will happen to Miyuki and Madoka when summer ends, as it must?
The other Fragments of Summer one-shots are Fragments of Snow,
Fragments of Love,
Waiting for the Spring Novel
and The Color of Autumn, The Color of You,
in which heroine Kanako falls for cold, aloof and rude
Ihara. Yup, uncivilitiy again rulez, albeit in autumn. [Akiiro Kimiiro
snap synopsis adapted from Baka-Updates Manga's Natsu no Kakera entry]
Other Amano Shinobu manga
Aside from ex-Lala Special Natsu no Kakera, could only unearth the two-volume Katakoi Triangle, first serialized in LaLa DX and LaLa Special and tankou-ized in January and November 2009. Baka-Updates Manga, however, adds Last Game 「ラストゲーム」, charas of which look like they walked out of a Minami Maki manga.
