Did you miss Yotsuba? (Did I even need to ask? :p) Whatever, break out the fireworks and soda because our adowable green-haired is back. In Yotsuba&! volume 11, Yotsuba's dad buys a camera—what pictures do you think Yotsuba takes?
Elex' preview refers to chapter 74, Yotsuba & Cameras,
but before she starts snapping away, she discovers the joys of autumn, noodle houses, roasted chestnuts and pizza. (So sez Kurokawa's Yotsuba, Tome 11 preview, which opens with Four green duvets, a big smile and a box full of good humor.
)
Aside from Yotsuba & Cameras,
volume 11 compiles chapters 70 to 73 and 75 and 76 — Yotsuba & Udon,
Yotsuba & Pizza,
Yotsuba & Soap Bubbles,
Yotsuba & Harvest of Chestnuts,
Yotsuba & Friends
and Yotsuba & ...

Making matters worse, Shoma catches the attention of the demon Masato who tempts Shoma with...
What will Yoda—I mean, Rinne—do to set his charge right?

Chibi's Memories,
Introduction to an Evil Spirit,
Supervisory Liability,
