ドラゴンエイジ (Dragon Age) July '05Title: ドラゴンエイジ (Dragon Age) July '05
Issue Date: 7/10/2005
Publisher: Kadokawa (Fujimi Shobo)
Pages: 854

This month's issue is a bohemoth. There's two new series starting, Pixy Gale and The Sea I Saw From Heaven. The first is a more mysterious and mystical story, although not too dark. The second one is daily-life story with a touch of magic, similar to Someday's Dreamers and Nodoka Nobody. Girl Following (Tsuiteru Kanojo) ends this month, rather abruptly. There's also a one-shot war manga.

Bonus this month is a pencil board with Pixy Gale art on one side, FMP Sigma on the other.

* Summaries abbreviated due to backlog (but got carried away again).

The locals don't like strangers around, but the village chief talks to them and explains that he doesn't have the picture anymore.
