Tokkyu!! 20 of 20, Inazuma Eleven 8, Nakayoshi Gress Issue 8 (Elex Media 31 August 2012 manga and mangazine) [UPDATED]

Added Ciuman Dewa volumes 1–5 restocks. You might not think the timing's significant, but it is when you consider that the Kamisama Hajimemashita anime premieres this October in Japan. (Service for those who haven't tried out the Kamisama Hajimemashita manga because of the title. xD)

Hyogo and sea rescue Team Tokkyu!! aren't swept away by the raging flood, but still wave buh-bye, Inazuma Japan is in a big pinch, the curse of a sentient sword continues after an absence of over a year, weddings are still shoujo bliss (especially blissful when they've caught up with the last chapter to have serialized here). That's the only NikBabble™ you're gonna get out of this release because nowhere on teh internets can you find Elex previews. (At least, at the time of writing.)

Oh, but I do ramble on about the NakaGress! Issue 8 pals, specifically the Indonesian Nakayoshi debut — the Host × Katekyo Thank You! For the Nomination or Goshimei Arigato Gozaimasu by Miasa Rin. You might already know Miasa Rin-sensei from the Kodansha Nakayoshi-serialized AKB0048 - Episode 0. [Continued...]
