Yuri Manga
I know that no one else on the planet cares, but you guys, I saw the most amazing thing at Kinokuniya today! YajiKita Gakuen Douchuuki is one of the three girl-gang series that ruled the 1980s and are my particular obsession, along with Sukeban Deka and Hana no Asuka-gumi. Well…there on the shelves was a new volume of this gonzo girl-gang/medieval Japanese literature mashup, with a light dusting of Yuri! Waaaahhh~~~YajiKita Gakuen Douchuuki F (やじきた学園道中記) is on sale now!
From Ichijinsha, Aoto Hibiki’s gender-bendy school comedy Prince Princess, Volume 2, (プリンスプリンス) wraps up with a surprise ending.
Also from Ichijinsha, the second volume of Sumu to Jigoku no Inferno (住めど地獄のインフェルノ) hit shelves last week.
Stretch, Volume 4 j(ストレッチ) just goes to show you that you can never really predict what weird crap will succeed. ^_^

Other News
ANN has the scoop that a new Rose of Versailles music CD compilation is available in Japan, Restored, remastered with music that has never been available before, this 3 CD set sounds like a blast.
ANN also has confirmation that, yes indeed, the final Read or Die Light Novel will be making it’s way to print. I’m amazed. If you recall, we actually left everyone dab smack in the middle of an arc when the 11th novel ended back in 2006 (mostly because he had wasted 3 novels not writing the story.) ^_^;
