こいこい７ (Koi Koi 7) Vol. 4 LE
News since last time is that this series is going to become an anime next April. This volume's story is a little more series and primarily deals with Sakuya. However, it does dig into some of Tetsuro's father's history and the creation of the cyborg girls. In all, it added to the main theme pretty well. The limited edition comes with a 22 minute drama CD housed in it's own case. The only member of the seiyuu crew I knew is Nana Mizuki who plays eye-patch Asuka. The acting job is pretty good, although I can imagine Yayoi becoming annoying rather quickly...na no desu. The story has the girls and Tetsuro being shipwrecked and swept on an uninhabited island. They bath in the ocean (Yayoi goes birthday-suit), set off fireworks, and have run-ins with the creatures on the island, including dinosaurs. However, this island actually belongs to Miya and they were shipwrecked because of her island defense system sinking their boat. Miya and Sakuya get in a fight and blow everything up, leaving Tetsuro to figure out how to get back to Japan for their anime premier. The other bonus for the LE is a special dust jacket (shown). Next volume will also have a limited edition with a drama CD. 18. 屁糞蔓かく語りき (So Says Hekusokazura) |

まぶらほ (Maburaho) Vol. 9 LE
This series continues to defy my normal watching habits. The background scenes are pretty poorly drawn, the BGM is okay, and there's no real overall story, and yet, I keep on enjoying it. It seems almost like crime. The two stories included in this volume are good, but I've already explained my bias. The first has Nakamaru mistakened for having the same magical genes as Kazuki. The second takes place in Kyoto where Rin battles Sayumi. Given that there's only a couple more discs to go, I think I know how this series is going to end. Bonus comes with a Sayumi keyring, picture cards, a voice CD (they messed up the last one), a picture card binder, a holographic card which is the cover of the box, liner newsletter, and picture label. The CD itself has a pretty picture label too.

美鳥の日々 (Midori no Hibi) Vol. 3
I'm becoming more accustomed to the stories in this series. Most of them are fun reads, but nothing really significant. The last two chapters add a bit to the main plot with Midori leaving Seiji's arm and then coming back, but it's more of a tease. This series won't conclude for another 5 books. Bonus comes with another author's comic where he talks with the manga god. 22. 悩殺のアタック (Seductive Attack) |

櫻の一番 (Sakura's Best) Vol. 2
The second volume is a little weaker than the first, but the last two chapters where pretty good. The story is a little more dark than I had anticipated, and feels more like a mystery story than anything else. With all these people dying at the Sakura Girl's School, I wonder who's going to be left by the end of chapter 5? Bonus comes with color pages at beginning, an author's manga, and a 2-page omake comic. 6. 櫻の倶楽部（前編） (Sakura's Club, First Part) |
