Too Many Defeated Heroines! (Vol. 8)


"—Won’t you support only me?"

"Just for now, won’t you—won’t you support only me?"

It’s the season for student council elections.
The candidate for president, Tiara, surprisingly nominated me as her sponsor.

Even though I already have the heavy responsibility of being the president of the literature club, I don't have the spare time for this.
I gently try to decline, but Tiara is more stubborn than usual...

She keeps pressuring me in every possible way, and before I know it, I’m caught up in the student council election.

At that moment, I hear that my rival's sponsor is Yanami...

"Let’s do this fairly, Nukumizu-kun."

—Can you really not support her?
The late-blooming heroine, Tiara Basori, is here!!


2nd place: Detective Conan: One-eyed Flashback

Detective Conan: One-eyed Flashback

Detective Conan: One-eyed Flashback


A Gripping Mystery Amid the Howling Snow—Fates Collide in the Mountains
Kogoro receives an unexpected call from an old colleague from his time at the Metropolitan Police—nicknamed "Wani" (the Crocodile). Wani wants to ask about an incident involving Detective Kansuke Yamato of the Nagano Prefectural Police, someone Conan and his friends have previously helped solve a case with.
Ten months ago, while tracking a suspect in a separate case, Yamato was caught in a devastating avalanche. Though he miraculously survived, he lost sight in one eye and now bears a deep scar from the ordeal.
Since then, he has continued working—and during a visit to an observatory to investigate a break-in, his injured eye suddenly begins to throb near a massive parabolic antenna.
Meanwhile, as Kogoro, Conan, and the others head to meet with Wani, the sound of gunfire rings out across the snowy landscape... and they rush toward the scene!

The Quintessential Quintuplets: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter (Vol. 2)


"This is the story of our daily life, from January to December, told over the course of one year—our story as the Nakano quintuplets."

Once a month, the five of us set aside a day to hang out together—
We decided to create "Quintuplets' Day."
As we each go down different paths—working adults, vocational school, university...
We plan various events!
In May, we have a birthday party for the quintuplets.
In June, there's the cultural festival at May’s university.
In July, we have a study session to prepare for the final exams.
And in August, we plan a trip to the beach...!?
Supervised completely by the original author, Haruba Negi, this is the story of the quintuplets' new life after graduating high school!
