New manga this week—including a couple of brand-new series kick-offs! Let's take a look at what's new to both brick+mortar and digital bookshelves …

9781632362384

Paradise Residence is a new manga from the creator of Oh My Goddess! and You’re Under Arrest, Kosuke Fujishima.

9781632362803

Known in Japan as Soredemo boku wa kimi ga suki, Forget Me Not is a manga by Nao Emoto based on the popular novel by Taiwanese author Mag Hsu. Serizawa was walking home from work one day when he was struck by a truck. Woozy and injured, he remembers a woman taking him to safety. It was someone he recognized… but who? It’s a romance manga with a dose of mystery! Read all of Chapter 1 here!

9781632361943

From Tomohiro Maekawa and Jinsei Kataoka (the artist of the smash hit Deadman Wonderland) comes Livingstone, the story about two men, Sakurai and Amano, on a quest to prevent the early deaths of those not yet fated to meet their end, or, at least, to recover the receptacle of the lost soul—the livingstone. Volume 2 of this fantasy adventure series is now here! Read all of Chapter 1 here!

Space Brothers 21coppelionvolume18

Finally, our rapid-release digital-only series, the astronaut-drama Space Brothers and post-apocalyptic actioner COPPELION, forge on, with newly arrived volumes on digital shelves this week. Read Chapter 1s at the links.
