A Sweet Way to Beat the Heat!

With this, the release of chapter 11 of Sweet Magic Syndrome, volume 1 is complete! Thus ends our week-long venture into this wonderfully cute series. Since this is a 4-koma, it'll probably be a while until volume 2 comes out (most likely not until next year), so there will be a long wait until we continue it.

Chocolate Cream Pudding: Yum!

And now here's chapter 2 of Sweet Magic Syndrome. You may notice that we upped the resolution a bit, which may make it easier to read, since the text is generally very small (compared to other manga).

Also, yes, Zenryoku "Otome" has finished, and the volume for it comes out in a few days. When we get it, if there's any bonus content in it, we'll be happy to release it. We're not sure when we'll get it, but probably before the end of the summer. As for the Josou Shounen anthology series, Ichijinsha has not announced a new volume in over 5 months, so it's likely that the series ended at volume 15, Ribbon Group. If so, we've released about 60% of the series so far.

Sweets Come in All Shapes, Sizes, and Nationalities!

We are proud to announce that our newest series is Sweet Magic Syndrome by Cuteg. After we did Zenryoku "Otome", we wanted to do more of Cuteg's work, and found this cute little 4-koma manga that no one had scanlated yet, so it's been a long time coming (the first volume came out last September). The series follows Amako, a girl with a sweet tooth who is just starting high school and wishes to make lots of friends. After she buys a new cup of pudding, she is shocked to find a girl named Pudding appear out of it, who says she's a princess from the Kingdom of Sweets.

Now that we are between a couple of our main series, this was the perfect time to finally get around to this. Also, the first 8 pages of chapter 1 are in regular manga format, and are in beautiful full color. However, this is a little departure from our usual genre, as it is not gender bender-related, but we hope you enjoy it.

Solving Family Problems with Cross-dressing!

Here they are, the final two one-shots from this issue of Waai. The first is Family Compilation by Kamaboko Red, and it's a sequel to the Family Complete one-shot from the previous issue. Although this time, it focuses on the eldest brother Momiji. It also has a couple of beautiful color pages, as you can see of the title page.

The second is Damatte Watashi no Iu Koto Kikinasai! (Shut Up and Do As I Say!) by Airi Mori. Kanata Tsukishiro's dead twin sister frequently takes possession of him, and so he asks Yumeto Ookawachi, who his sister had a crush on before she died, if he would help her to pass on. Both one-shots are cute, so enjoy.

Just Another Day in the Life of a Trap!

Now for another double release. The first is chapter 7 of Otasuke Miko Miko-chan, and the second is an extra chapter of Hikaru to Hikari. All that's left with this issue of Waai are a couple of one-shots.

Love is the Source of All Magic!

Finally, here's the end of Usotsuki Lily volume 11, containing a bonus 4-koma chapter and the author's usual afterword. Currently, the manga is up to chapter 84 in the magazine, with chapter 85 about to be released in a couple of days. As indicated on the preview page, volume 12 will be released in late July, though we might not get to it until September. We'll keep you updated as we get closer to then.

Bokura no Hentai's third volume just recently came out, but it doesn't look like we'll get to it until August. And as mentioned before, Kuragehime volume 12 comes out next month.

When Traps Gather, Fun is Soon to Follow!

Today we have another double release. The first is the sixth and final chapter of Trap Days. Why do all the really good trap series have to end so soon? With this series over, and Past Future having ended in the previous issue, there will probably be one or two new series in the next issue. The second is chapter 6 of Boku to Boku.

Some Things You Never Forget!

After much anticipation and buildup, here's chapter 71 of Usotsuki Lily. It always pains me to see color pages like this rendered in black and white; it would look so much better if Shueisha actually did the color pages in their volume releases. Oh well, maybe if an anime gets made some day it'll make up for it. This is the last main chapter for the volume, so only the bonus 4-koma chapter and the usual afterword remain until volume 12.

Also some additional notes for the chapter. If you don't know what the gestaltzerfall effect is, read this informative blog post. And at the end of the chapter on the bonus page, there's a reference to "page 13", but this chapter includes an additional bonus page for page 2 which is not counted, so Komura is talking about something that occurs on page 14.

Ringing in the New Year!

Usotsuki Lily's still chugging along with the release of chapter 70. It's almost hard to believe it's already been 70 chapters (and that the manga's currently at chapter 84 in the magazine I believe).

Also, some bad news for Shounen Oujo fans. The manga has once again gone on hiatus in Japan as of February, leaving the manga up to chapter 19 for now. Why? Because the artist Utako Yukihiro recently started drawing the manga version of Uta no Prince-sama - Maji Love 2000% starting in April, the anime of which is currently airing. That manga is also serialized in Sylph, so that could be part of the reason.

The end of volume 2 had said that the third volume of Shounen Oujo would be released in spring, and if so, it probably would have come out in May. But now that the manga is on hiatus again (it had gone on a similar hiatus back in 2012), the manga likely will not return in the magazine until Uta no Prince-sama is finished, which could be later this year (Yukihiro's two previous Uta no Prince-sama manga adaptations were only 1 volume each). Therefore, Shounen Oujo volume 3 is not likely to come out until very late this year, or more likely, early next year. So sadly, the long wait will only continue.

And also a bit of good news for Kuragehime fans. For whatever reason, Kodansha is releasing volume 12 in July, a full two months earlier than was expected.
