Still working my way through the backlog of Galette magazines, which brings me to Galette, No. 30 (ガレット).

Aneido’s “Watashi ha Kimi no Kami dayo”, which has the best English tagline of “Oh my God! Yes, I am your god” continues the delightful story of a grifter who is working on seducing the apparently innocent accountant for a religious cult, by pretending to be her god. Everything about this is wonderfully ridiculous.

Morinaga Milk’s Yuna mopes around because Reina will not handle her issues in “Watashi no Kawaii Neko-chan.” I need to spoil a bit here. Because I am now several issues ahead of this, I can say it gets better, but this was really a last straw for me. IF the story just kept going down this road, I was going to drop it. I wasn’t having fun watching Reina be oblivious to Yuna’s suffering while simultaneously ignoring her own health.

Yorita Miyuki’s “Houkenshitsu na Ano Onna” has been a bit of a rollercoaster. Those of you who are getting the English-language edition of Galette magazine are encountering a drab teacher and the glamorous women in the infirmary who obsesses her. It is becoming clearer than Tsukino-sensei and Yukino-sensei might actually be okay together.

I love Yamada Torico’s “That girl day in the life” for a number of reasons. The protagonist name is Seoyun, it’s nice to see a Korean name and it’s a refreshing change of pace from fourteen million ‘Hana”s and the like. ^_^ Her best friend who is making her question her feelings is a carefree and fun girl, but not reckless or dangerous. It’s just…sweet.

Momono Moto offers us a new work, since Kitta Izumi has backed off of writing Liberty. I’m sorry about that, but glad to see her sticking around.

Ratings:

Overall – 8

More manga, 140-character stories, Yuri discussion and illustration fill out a nice 216 page volume of Galette. I’ve already read No. 31, and hope to review that soon, as I am still trying to catch up. ^_^

This week, backers of Galette Special English Edition #2 were informed that May will see the next Kickstarter for Issue #3 (of an initial 7 planned.) We’ll be sure to let you know when that launches!
