Junk: Record of the Last Hero, despite what you may think, is not a Rozen Maiden spinoff starring Suigintou. Though that’d totally be awesome now that I think about it…

The fluffy adventures of Narue and Kazuto continue in The World of Narue Volume 3. Plus: three-somes!
So this headline from ANN caught my eye. Seven Seas has acquired licenses for two new yuri manga and two yuri novels:
Seven Seas Entertainment has announced that it has licensed two yuri school manga titles: Hayate Cross Blade by Shizuru Hayashiya (Onegai Teacher, Strawberry Shake Sweet) and Akatsuki-iro no Senpuku Majo by Mera Hakamada (The Last Uniform). The company also announced two yuri novel titles: Girls Love and Girls Revolution.
I’m not too interested in the novels, but I really do want to read Hayate Cross Blade. I bought it a while back but I later found out that it doesn’t have furigana, which basically made it unreadable for me. So it’ll be cool for me to finally be able to read it.
Incidentally, right now I’m reading The Last Uniform (Saigo no Seifuku) and it’s pretty enjoyable. I mean, there hasn’t been any ***** or ****, but it’s cute.
Basically, Seven Seas is blazing a trail in releasing yuri stuff right now. I read a news article a while back about them licensing yaoi too, which I don’t approve of. But as long as they keep supplying the yuri, I’m in 100% support mode!
To Terra Volume 2. What do we get? More emo (much more emo), explosions, and effeminate Mu.
With a generic subtitle like “The Final Evolution” you’d expect Alive to be pretty substandard, right? Well, you shouldn’t always judge a book by its unoriginal subtitle. The cover is much better for superficial judging!
NHK Volume 3 ramps up the non-stop hikikomori action by having Satou play MMORPGS! And by action, I mean virtual action.
Samurai Commando: MISSION 1549 is easily the cheesiest name for a manga I’ve ever heard. The name also made it pretty much impossible for me not to read it.
Ah, Galaxy Angel. That one really long series that I’ve been taking literally forever to finish. Just one more beta volume after this, and I’ll be done! What’s that? There’s a Galaxy Angel II? Uguu~~
After doing some detective work, I found out that the title of the manga “Puri Puri” is short for “Premature Priest.” Oh man, this ought to be good.
So the Alien Nine manga trilogy ends. With a !?!?!? ending! Questions are answered, but the answers just raise more questions! Oh well, at least there’s a sequel, too.
