Every week, the Manga Villagers will go through the new releases for the week and pick out the titles they are most looking forward to reading. Whether it\u2019s buying or just window shopping, check out what we\u2019re looking at every week!<\/p>\n

Week Ending 11\/10\/2012<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Amy:<\/strong> The complete box set release of Ouran High School Host Club<\/em> is on my wish list. I\u2019m hoping that Santa will be able to fit this shojo complete series under my tree this year. This box set includes all 18 volumes with some extra goodies. Also, coming from Viz this week, I\u2019m anxious for the latest volume of Kamisama Kiss<\/em>. As the anime series has rekindled my interest in this series I\u2019m glad to see volumes still being released.<\/p>\n

Alex:<\/strong> Sekine\u2019s Love<\/em> from JManga seems right up my alley (okay, I admit, I bought and read the thing already), and I think there is a lot there for shojo and josei fans to like. Negima v. 36<\/em> is available from Kodansha and Heroman v. 1<\/em> is available from Vertical, all of which I will be picking up. I\u2019m also interested in Strobe Edge<\/em>, a new series from Viz. And, if you are hunting for manga Christmas gifts, VIz released a Nausicaa<\/em> and a Ouran<\/em> box set this week.<\/p>\n

Lori:<\/strong> I\u2019m also interested in Strobe Edge<\/em>, a shojo about a girl discovering what love is. The premise doens\u2019t sound too original, but hopefully it will be in execution. I think I\u2019ll also check out Heroman<\/em>. I didn\u2019t care for Stan Lee\u2019s first manga collaboration, Ultimo<\/em>, but I\u2019ll willing to give him another shot. Sekine\u2019s Love<\/em> from Jmanga caught my attention because of the knitting angle, so I may give that one a try as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
