Chelciejo Anime Collection: Gamaran 6, X-Day 1 by Mizushiro Setona, Crazy Girl Shin Bia 14 (m&c! manga and manhwa out nau~)

Street date: 13 June 2012
RL has been totally fractious this week, so apologies for the delay in m&c! Shopping List × NikBabble™ >.<

☞ Erementar Gerad vol 5 was reported postponed—that's confirmed by at least two sources (ECC and Angelzon)—but I'm keeping it here because it IS on m&c!'s official list, plus there's no confirmation yet that volume 5 release has indeed moved to the 4th of July (like, word has it, Flower of Queen 4).
Update: Erementar Gerad 5 moved to 4th July.

Since this is MY blog, and I lurve–lurve–lurve! Mu Young♡, leading with Crazy Girl Shin Bia 14 by Hwang MiRee (I've only been waiting—oh, an ice age—for a cover like this).

Yoo Baek suffers the shock of his life in the Holy Land. Not only does the Crown Prince stumble on to his (ex-)fianceé Goddess Bia channeling Sleeping Beauty, he also gets a front row seat to the Prince Mu Young x Shin Bia main event, feat. ...The Smooch.

You can't blame our beleaguered Yoo Baek for thinking something's wrong with his eyes. That there Crazy Girl Shin Bia is his bride to be! And she's liplocked with Yoo Baek's enemy!

k, now for the top DO WANT!

Gamaran vol 6 of (16+)
By Nakamaru Yosuke

Naoyoshi faces disqualification from future feudal lord contention. Only a few Daimyo wannabes remain — those yet undefeated and who have advanced to the next round of fighting. As Gama grapples with what to do next, help comes from an unexpected quarter. Gama's father Kurogane Jinsuke shows up, and “The Slayer” commands his disciple Ito Ranmaru to counsel Gama and allies in the coming clash against the “Four God Spears.”

Fifteen Gamaran volumes have been compiled in Japan as of April 2012. The 16th streets (streeted by the time I upload this post) on 15 June.

New m&c! titles
Previews after the release list.

New titles m&c! launches two new shoujo series and a standalone: X-Day 1 by Mizushiro Setona, Runway Sweetheart 1 by Shibano Yuka and Tanaka Wataru and Pandora Restaurant by Sagara Riri. X-Day is prolly the most famous of the three because—as Baka-Updates Manga points out in its Author #199 entry—Mizushiro-sensei is well-known for her series X-Day in which she exhibits an outstanding ability to delve into psychological issues of every nature. And while Runway Sweetheart may not be as heavy going as the ex-Princess Suicide, Chat Rooms, Jealousy X-Day, it isn't as light as its title would suggest either. Shibano Yuka's Betsucomi manga, originally Runway no Koibito adapted from Tanaka Wataru's novel of the same name, not only features cut-throat competition in the modeling world, it also presents it from the Antagonist's POV. So, if you're looking for levity in your manga, your best bet is prolly Sagara Riri's Pandora Restaurant, which first serialized in Comic CYUTT, Media Factory's shoujo web magazine that explores themes of ‘Love’, ‘Healing’, ‘Drama’, ‘Dream’, and ‘Laughter’.

Oh! If you're looking to guffaw, you can also try out the new KOLONI local comic — Nan Nan's Daily Life from Ananda. (Don't blame me for almost forgetting; the last KOLONI title to come out, if my Telor Ceplok database is not #Fail, was Blade Bunny (Koloni Jagoan volume 5) back in November.) Nan Nan's Daily Life appears to be a comedy that giggles "shoujo."
