Title: 少年マガジン (Shonen Magazine) Vol. 32
Issue Date: 7/21/2004
Publisher: Kodansha
Pages: 512

Featured girls are 19 year old 小坂由佳 (Yuka Kosaka), winner of Miss Magazine 2004 and 17 year old 星野飛鳥 (Asuka Hoshino). There's also a new series starting this week, M.I.Q. about money (gambling maybe?). In any case, doesn't really look like something I'm interested in. Negima is off this week, but Tsubasa is back with a very pretty color title page.

Suzuka: ＃２０相似 (Similarity): Yamato has thoughts about quitting since his purpose for joining track has disappeared. However, Suzuka's track friend, Hashiba tells him that she'll hate him even more if he's a quitter. At weight training, Yamato has become quite popular with the teammates. The captain remarks to Suzuka that he's a bit like 津田和輝 (Kazuki Tsuda), previous track member. Suzuka denies it, but there seems to be something between Kazuki and Suzuka that has happened in the past.

Hamanaka Ai: ０４２学校の怪談めぐり (The Ghost Stories at School): Rinko, Misaki, and Ayana go investigate the 7 mysteries of the school including the missing step, the hand in the swimming pool...etc. Ayana is the only one rational, but gets scared when she sees the skeleton move, but it's only Masahiko carrying it.

Changing Now: ＃１２その名はマシンナー (The Name is "Machina"): Machina saves Takeko, much to the digust of her dad. However, Machina apparently has some times with the (what looks to be) nameless arch-enemy.

Tsubasa: ５０偶像の国 (A Country of Icons): Sakura wakes up deep in the woods. Shaoran quickly shows up when she awakens and tells her that they warped again, but this time, they didn't get her memories from the previous word (Seishirou escaped with it). Suddenly, they get pelted with tree fruits and Shaoran is knocked out and dragged away. Sakura tells Kuro, Fye, and Mokona, who were exploring at the time, and they look for Shaoran. They find him among a group of friendly anthropomorphic rabbits who tell them about a monster nearby. Sakura, Kuro, and Shaoran go hunt it.

小坂由佳 (Yuka Kosaka) is featured as the front and back girl. XXXholic is still off this week. Only 4 more issues to go before my subscription for this magazine runs out. Hopefully I'll get a few more XXXholic chapters in.

Redlight: 12: Satoshi is in nirvana now that he has Chiko as a girlfriend. Not even the most obnoxious drivers he meets at work can bring him down. He's also dyed his hair blonde. Satoshi then arranges a date with Chiko at a fast-food joint. Before he meets Chiko, he meets some of his friends who don't believe that he has a girlfriend, but eventually meets Chiko. Satoshi and Chiko then spend the rest of the day around time and after Chiko's remark, he decides to dye his hair color back (with her help).
