Update: No longer "just a list" :p
Ryuu no Hanawazurai © Kusakawa Nari/Hakusensha [First serialized in LaLa]. Published in Indonesia as Dragon's Fiancé by Elex Media
Kwan's condition improves, but not enough to allow Shakuya's fiancé to move (much less dance a celebratory jig). Shakuya is so worried about his recovery that Kwan... is ‘forced’ to kiss her!
Meanwhile, our anxious dragon's other—first—fiancé Lushin suffers from sudden pains. Whether these stem from heartache or something else remains to be seen, but for sure, they bode...
Lushin recovering his memories? :P
For those of you who followed Dragon's Fiancé in HanaLaLa, this fourth volume compiles chapters 15 through 20, which means you're safe if you've read all the way till HanaLaLa's last issue (Indonesian serialization only reached up to chapter 26, bound in volume 5).
As for the top DO WANT!, a "Devil"’s whisker's vote more than Dragon's Fiancé 4—
Faster than a Kiss vol 3 of 10+
By Tanaka Meca
Newly-married Fumino and Ojiro-sensei should be living teh happy life, but RL chaos puts paid to any shot at wedded bliss. What's more, Ojiro-sensei's little brother Shoma shows up at the school cultural festival, and relations between the siblings seem somewhat...strained.
It's gonna get stranger when Shoma pays a visit to Ojiro mansion and finds... «!!!» (Catch the fireworks exploding in Faster than a Kiss vol 3, finally streeting after a two-week delay.)
Faster than a Kiss 3 compiles (slow) Love.8 through 12. Ten Kiss Yori mo Hayaku tankou have been published in Japan as of December 2011.
New Elex titles
Elex finally releases March Komikologi-advised The Future of Iris, originally Okano Fumika's Iris no Tamago, also an ex-LaLa shoujo manga like FTAK and RyuuHana, but one that spins its fantasy out in only two volumes. Elex also picks up another lifted from the classics Capstone graphic novel, Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling, following up the Komik Legenda Ternama series launched with L. Frank Baum's The Wizard Of Oz, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Jules Verne's 60000 mil di bawah laut and Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland. Newbie babble after the release list.
