phantom busters vol 2 by Neoshoco

3/11/2026

0 Comments

 
Cover of Phantom Busters volume 2. The boys are sitting around smiling pensively with their chin in their hands.
The phantom busters are given a task from the Student Body president in order to save their club room, and in the process, Mogari also reveals he has a fairly impossible task from his family to exorcist a large number of demons in a year or lose his privilege of going to school. The president secretly is a huge fan of the paranormal, but his steely exterior must be maintained, especially around his subordinates. Korekishi has his own problems — his mother threatens to have him transferred to another school if he doesn’t quit the phantom busters, and a former classmate also pressures him to quit the club to realize his full leadership potential elsewhere.

Beatrice vol 1 by Macherie

3/7/2026

Cover of Beatrice vol 1. Due Alessandro is holding a sword to Beatrice's throat. She's holding a purple crown. He's in a dark purple suit while she's in a light purple dress. They're surrounded by purple flowers.
Adapted by Cierra

In the kingdom of Elpasa, a princess named Beatrice is taken captive as the neighboring Empire invades. She is sold to a noble family as a slave, something Beatrice knows all to well from her early life. The invading force, led by the intimidating Duke Alessandro, as well as several knights, intimidate Beatrice and are all people she hopes to never see again once she fades into the background in her new life. Beatrice knows how to lay low; as soon as they cross the border into the Empire, she melts into old slave persona. She cuts off her gorgeous flowing locks, ditches her long, billowy skirts, and becomes the unassuming Chloe, ever amenable and focused solely on tidying and serving.

Cover of The Ayakashi Hunter's Tainted Bride vol 3. Yako and Nanao are sitting on the ground with Nanao sort of in Yako's lap. She's in an orange yukata and he's in a purple suit.
Adapted by Mamenosuke Fujimaru

Reito dismisses Akemi as his proper wife in the Byakurenji household because he continues to have feelings for Nanao and delusions that he can win her away from Yako Benitsubaki. The jealousy and outrage drives Akemi insane, and she decides to take matters into her own hands. She travels to the Benitsubaki house in order to convince Yako that he doesn't need Nano. Meanwhile, Reito also tries to convince Nanao that he needs her and to come back to the Byakurenji house to take her place as his wife.

Maid to skate vol 1 by suzushiro

2/28/2026

Cover of Maid to Skate vol 1. Hana is holding a bag of groceries while about to lay down onto her board. She's wearing her black and white maid outfit with billowing full skirt.
Precocious maid Hana is constantly late to meals, and her hero attitude often gets her into much bigger situations. Maids in this world aren’t just folks who clean and cook — they also shred around town. A trip to the market lands her and her board in the river as she attempts a sick jump across it. Catching a fish-thieving kitten spirals into saving a baby in a pram and chasing both throughout a crowded shopping and outdoor dining area. Hana still has a lot to learn about being a top maid and a top skater!

Cover of My Secretly Hot Husband vol 1. A young redheaded girl holds on to a man in black armor who is about to take off a purple mask with horns.
Adapted by Gabi Nam, illustrated by Harara

Letitia’s first life ended in an apartment fire, but her second life isn’t starting off so great. Her parents die when she is very young, and she is sent to live with her aunt and uncle. It turns out, her uncle has a pact with a noble northern family of demon hunters, and he must send someone of his blood to marry their son. At twelve, Letitia is chosen to join House Halstead, but the rumors are horrible! They might sacrifice her and eat her or burn alive her for being a witch. Letitia’s trip to the northern lands isn’t without incident, including finding items from Earth that have seeped into this world. When Letitia finally meets her husband-to-be, she discovers that he's supposedly cursed with a hideous complexion and wears a mask at all times. But, he's otherwise extremely cordial.

Cover of Wynd vol 4. Wynd is strapped to a machine intended to ecsanguinate him.
Vol 4: The Power of the Blood, illustrated by Michael Dialynas

Wynd and Yorik have been captured. The rest of the gang has headed to the neutral city of Northport, but how long will the city be able to stay out of things with war breaking out over the known world? The faeries and vampyres are on the cusp of invading the humans, but all Oakley can think about is saving her brother; all Duke Yadriel of can think about is the political machinations of going or not going to Pipetown; and all Ash can think about is the sprytles and wild magic all over Northport with humans somehow co-existing and not turning into monsters themselves.

Cover of We Could be Magic. Tabitha is holding James' hand and pulling him down the street of Sommerland's main street. They're both smiling.
Illustrated by Joelle Murray

Tabitha has dreamed about work for the magical theme park of Sommerland since she was a little girl, and the summer internship is where she is finally going to make it all reality. At first, Tabi is excited to be assigned at any role in the park just as long as she can contribute to the magic of a family’s stay, but going behind-the-scenes at her favorite place isn’t as wonderful as she had hoped. Her co-workers complain about guests and working conditions; her assignment isn’t exactly what she had hoped for, and the actors playing royalty, the role Tabi aspires to, aren’t as nice out of character. Tabi does manage to find one person, James, who hasn’t let others tarnish his excitement for working at the park, and the two do their best to enjoy the summer.
