[edit] Shugo Chara
They have an amazing manga called 'Shugo Chara.' Due to be out March 27, 2007. It is about a lonely girl named Amu. She is stylish, cool, and very popular. So popular that no one hangs out with her. She is "to cool for us to go near to". Poor Amu! Because her outer charecter cool self is nothing like her real self and she hates it! Amu isnt really just silently cool, no she just hates talking in front of crowds and she says cynical things. Her mother buys her punk-goth clouthes when she wants to wear pink frills...... she loves the 'king' but her outer charecter made her yell at him.... Amu really is in an identity mess. That is until she finds three mysterious eggs on her bed after praying to her gaurdian angel to help her. They are charecter eggs. Once they hatch they can change Amu's charecter anytime! But (yes there always is one) they do it whenever they want.... a mysterious ultra cute catboy is following her..... and she is now a gaurdian, the only one with 3 guardians.
[edit] Mature line
In early December 2005 it was announced[1] that Del Rey Manga would begin publishing a mature line of manga. They will be larger than the regular books, be shrink wrapped, and sold for $13.95.
