MAG UPDATES
Hello Peeps. Ayu returns with a dose of mag updates featuring Asuka’s November issue. As an added bonus, we also include teasers of Uraboku Story 52.
ASUKA ISSUE 11/12
Lovely Luka from UraBoku featured on the cover of the November edition. Also, that cross-shaped pendant (shown on the cover) comes with the issue as well. I haven’t open the freebie box and check out mine yet. ^^
Double Uraboku Surprise!!
This is a long overdue post but we think it is a blessing in disguise because there isn’t any new chapter in Asuka’s latest Oct issue. What better way to space out the timing of posting the last 2 chapter snippets during the month long break until the next one (Story 52) which will come out later this month (Nov issue). So, here goes!
Q: Who do we have on May’s cover of Asuka?
A: Shurei and her harem from Saiunkoku Monogatari
It’s May already and isn’t it appropriate to share snippets from the May Issue of ASUKA. It’s later than expected and I do have the current June Issue in hand as well although I won’t post teasers from that copy yet. With that said, there’s no new Uraboku chapter in the June issue. That means the Uraboku fandom will have to wait longer for the next chapter. It is one of the reason why I forgo a quick Uraboku spoiler post earlier on. I’m not even sure if there’s a new chapter in the coming July issue. Anyway, those of you looking forward to Story 48 shall be pleased because I’m posting the chapter teasers right here.
tBPII is back with another mag post filled with tidbits from the April edition of 月刊Asuka.
APRIL COVER FEAT. YAKUMO OF SHINREI TANTEI YAKUMO
What do we have in store from this issue? Plenty it seems. See if you are following any of the manga titles of interest that are currently running in Asuka and want to see the latest chapter snippets or perhaps you might like some of the newer ones and want a glimpse or two of what they are.
Oh look, what do we have here? Not the manga mag snippets, is it back?
ASUKA MARCH COVER feat. “Kyou kara Ma no Tsuku Jiyuugyou!“
Yes, yes it’s back after such a loooooong hiatus. I haven’t been able to contribute properly because my being really tied-up with work IRL. This would be the first of the back log posting and since March is nearly ending, I thought we should just begin with snippets from ASUKA’s March Issue. That way, I’ll only have the April issue before we catch up to the latest May issue. Confused? Don’t be. The Japanese publications usually releases their issues a month ahead of the current one. That’s how it is.
Ayu is baaaack from the abyss of RL….sort of! (/o^)/
WASSUP:
Consider this a pre-come back post of sorts. Nothing like getting back into the groove of things by sharing some mag freebies from my mag backlogs and it’s a huge one too although I’ve to cut down on the image dumps. I’ll be cross-posting some of the stuff here to tumblr.
MANGAZINE DIGEST: GEKKAN ASUKA DECEMBER ISSUE (2011)
Cover illustration: Shinrei Tantei Yakumo
I had originally planned to wait till the January 2012 issue and do a combo mag post but since I will be very occupied with RL activities in December, I won’t have time to scan stuff from the magazines. Therefore I acquiesce to time constraint and thus, this post. Fans of Uraboku would certainly love the 2nd collection of illustrative cards that is bundled with this issue of Asuka but unfortunately, there isn’t any new chapter. However, there will be a new chapter in the upcoming Jan issue. So, keep a look out for it as I’ll try and squeeze some snippets when I get my copy of Asuka’s Jan 2012 issue.
Blurbs, blurbs and more blurbs – Oh So Not Random!
Time for another Mangazine Digest post. In fact, this is a multi-post mag updates featuring the November issues of Asuka, Avarus and GFantasy. It’s more than a little late which is why I scrap the individual mag feature and decide on a one shot, multi-mag updates for this round. Nonetheless, I hope you regulars would still find the bumper snippet spam enjoyable and *spoiler-y*. 
Newer updates are in cue with the December issues coming my way and I know most of the peeps from a particular fandom are anxiously waiting for ‘THAT’ chapter teasers. It will be fun to see how many of you in the fandom make it past my next *trap*. I am pleasantly surprised that a number of newcomers to my blog from the said fandom made it through the 1st one and left their comments in the actual teaser post. Regulars are a little spoiled from before but really, you peeps should amp-up for the next one. Don’t give up so easily. Ah…to those who don’t know what the dinkums am I babbling about, fret not…the longer you patronized tBPII, the better educated you are on what’s going on. XD
Alrightey! On to the onslaught of image heavy mag snippets.
Head beyond the cut for more manga snippets

It seemed like a long time ago since I last did one of these mag updates. Well, I’m enjoying the mags on my own as there’s just too little time to share snippets on tBP.
Anyway, here is what I have in store for this update. Any series that aren’t mentioned below are excluded. Click on the titles to jump to the specific chapters.
