The cover art on the Edgeworth volume looks like it comes from a bootleg Pokemon card.

PLEASE NOTE - Following order from those above me on the website, over +18 yaoi / yuri / hentai titles are no longer appearing in this section as it is considered not suitable for a website like this which is rated below 18. There were some yaoi titles which adult titles which have been released this week.

If anyone is interested I would recommend that someone sets up a seperate section in the manga area to cover this, as well as possibly any other titles that don't appear on the main release section (e.g., artbooks, OEL manga, manhwa).

Nothing for me this week

I'd happily have a go at trying to do this, it's a challenge, but It sounds like a brilliant idea because there are probably at least a couple of releases that get missed off anyways due to them not being typical Japanese-Translated English Manga and a good way to please those (which there are as seen in Previous threads) who maybe want to keep up with the more "Adult"oriented titles that are not suitable to show on the main site.

Well, if you are interested, feel free to get it started and I'll contribute to it.

In terms of this week's releases, the only one that interests me is Alice in the Country of Clover.

OK, I suggest you post it in the "General Manga Discussion" section. I won't be around for most of today so chances I won't be able to post anything in it until later this evening. But if you want to enter the info yourself, the source that I use is Right Stuf.

Would seem a shame for titles that are rated 18 based on sexual content to get shoved off, when I'm fairly sure titles that get the same rating for violence probably go through without anyone thinking that they should be hidden from view (hardly something specific to this site, in your defence).

Sadly we're not allowed to officially promote them, even though it's an annoying double standard in our society that angry Daily Mail readers are more likely to pursue the site for a bit of consensual but explicit love than for graphic ultraviolence. I won't be moderating any contributions people want to make in response to Ian's threads which unofficially note the explicit releases, of course (assuming that they don't go nuts and post sample artwork from inside showing off the raunchy bits).

You know this week's manga isn't very enticing when people are too busy discussing the erotic manga that could have been listed here...

So I'm the only one who thought "Angel Para Bellum" looked like an okay read?

Also, I would be interested in knowing what "explicit" titles have been released, if I hadn't seen Ian's post last week or the week before even, I wouldn't have known about Velvet Kiss.

Is that a decision AUKN has taken, or is that like, actually the law? Because if that's really the law of the land that you aren't allowed to promote raunchy comics on a public website then you'll have to excuse me for a minute while I go downstairs to retrieve my lower jawbone.

And a pitchfork.

The reason I didn't pick that one is (and I shouldn't really be telling you this) is because I've reviewed for the latest edition of MyM, out this Thursday.
