Finished NEET Princess Terrass. I felt this series had the potential to become quite a good series but it was cut short. At least though it was given a proper ending rather then left hanging.
Finished Watashitach no Tamura-kun. This series was ok I suppose, I found it at times to be a little confusing as it switched between the two girls but it had a conclusive ending which was quite good.
Started Echo-Pun. Now this is my sort of Manga. It's a 4-koma about 2 girls who meet up again in highschool after having made a promise earlier to become superheroes. 1 of them doesn't while the other 1 does keep to the promise and tries to be a superhero but always gets it wrong.

Finished Echo-Pun. A very enjoyable series that had quite a few laughs in it.

Discovered, via the 'Queer Gear' LGBT sub-forum of the main steampunk forum Brass Goggles, Prunus Girl - a high school comedy/romance where one of the protagonists is a cross dressing boy... but handled in a quite sympathetic and upfront way, rather than being wholly for laughs. Sounds a lot like Wandering Son, so I've found a scan and will check out the first few chapters.

Started Milk Crown. Sounds like it could be quite an odd little Manga.

Made a start with Girl's High. I was going to watch the Anime but instead I decided to go with the Manga. I think it's actually the first semi autobiographical Manga that I've read.
Quite good so far and there seems to be quite a few volumes so it should make for a good read but I hope it doesn't go stale and just lead to a rehashing of various tropes.

Finished Joshikousei/High School Girls. This series was actually quite a good comedy with a good supporting cast. I don't know why it is but the morons in Anime/Manga always seem to have so much fun. Sadly I think this is long out of print which is a shame but I might have a look for it.
Read all the scans of Monster musume no iru nichijou. This is showing up on Amazon with vol 1-3 as a future release which has gone straight to my wish list as it was just too weird to pass up on.
Decide to bookmark the following,
Senran Kagura
Centaur no nayami
Jigokuren
Sankarea
Oretama, honestly with this one I read the summery and then had a brief look and I couldn't stop laughing, I'm not going to say any more but you've got to see for yourself.

Prunus Girl chaps 1-13 (scans)
Cross-dressing schoolboy hi-jinks. The comedy element is quite high, with the gender-ambiguous Aikawa constantly flirting with all-round good boy Maki and Maki's lesbian friend Shion flirting with girls and Aikawa. No explanation (yet) as to why Aikawa cross-dresses, but it's a fun and entertaining read that isn't OTT.

Read Oretama. Well that was a waste of time as I thought it was going to be a good comedy but instead it turned out to be something which to be honest with you was quite frankly rubbish.
Started Jikokuren. Compared to Oretama this is much better and I think Amazon is listing it as a future release depending on how it ends I might consider a purchase. I had to change which website I viewed it on as the first site started showing partial translations and then massive watermarks that were trivia about Christmas and slagging off another group. I went to the group that was being slagged off and found their scans to be much better.

I'm not telling you where they were as it might violate this forums rules.

Finished Jikokuren Love in the Hell (I think that's it's full title). Really enjoyed reading this. Despite being a short series everything was wrapped up nicely and it even had a happy ending. I'm going to seriously consider purchasing this as it's a good short Manga.
