Is insanity hereditary? Shougo Mikadono's beginning to think so,
because the terms of his late father's will seem crazy and following
them may drive Shougo bonkers as well. Oh, it sounds simple at first:
before Shougo can claim his VERY large inheritance, he just has to start
attending a certain new school and find a nice girl to marry. It's a
little unromantic, but perfectly do-able, right? After all, all the
girls seem quite friendly, so all Shougo has to do is find one he has
something in common with. Except, and here's the kicker, it turns out
that Shougo has WAY too much in common with one of them, because she's
actually his long lost sister! And he has no idea which one she is!
Will Shougo meet and court his Miss Right without committing something
very morally wrong? Can he find his future bride without slipping into
the wrong set of genes? And if his little sister does reveal herself,
just how much will be revealed and under what circumstances? Find out as
family planning takes on a whole new meaning in NAKAIMO - My Little
Sister is Among Them!

It's one thing to wake up from a dream and be a little confused, but on

the strange girl that he'd just been dreaming of! Weirder yet, his hot
older cousin, Nanase, takes the new addition to the household perfectly
in stride and enrolls her in Tomokazu's high school, despite the fact
that the girl can only say one word: "Mone." But things get totally out
of control when Tomokazu discovers that he can take others back and
forth to Mone's dream world, where his new found abilities may be the
key to stopping a nightmarish invasion! Faster than you can say "Harem
Anime," Tomokazu's two worlds collide as girls from his "real" world
join with those from the dream world to take on the evil forces of the
Feydooms! But can a 16-year-old nobody really lead a super hero team,
stop the bad guys, save the world(s,) and/or get the girl(s) in the
end? It's the kind of thing that only happens in dreams, but when the
whole world's a dream world, anything might be possible in YUMERIA!

In the early 21st century, the discovery of the first wormhole made

of jumping through space via parallel universes unleashed terrifying
consequences. Now, a quarter millennia later, the deep space outpost
Watcher's Nest must stand on guard, defending the vanguard of humanity
against attacks by the monstrous Ghoul, who emerge from alternate time
streams and turn their victims into the living undead horrors known as
Necromancers. For newly arriving cadets Misaki, Luxandra, Susanna and
Kiri, it's going to be an assignment in Hell as they train to become
members of the elite Seraphim Squadron. Because this is a war mankind
has been losing, and a new, top secret plan to take the fight back to
the Ghoul may end up costing them their minds, lives and even their
humanity. At the edge of known space, fighting an enemy from beyond
time, the battle to keep the final frontier from becoming mankind's
final resting place has begun in DIVERGENCE EVE!

It's called the House of Evils, where beasts in human flesh prowl the

facility in Japan. It wasn't supposed to be a life sentence, but unless
the woman now known as Inmate 611 can learn how to hold her own against
both the ruthlessness of her fellow inmates and the brutal harassment
of the guards, she's got little chance of walking out with both mind and
body intact. Stripped, shackled, but not yet broken, an international
chain gang of red hot models and actresses lead by Akira Kiuchi, Harumi
Nemoto , Youko Kamon, Yoshimi Asada and Kei Mizutani prepare to march

SYNOPSIS:
When tragedy struck Riki Naoe as a child, he was rescued from grief
over his parent's deaths when four other kids "recruited" him for their
group - the "Little Busters." Now in high school, Riki and the other
Busters are still fast friends, and though their vision of being heroes
for justice may have faded, they'd still do anything for each other.
Which is why Riki is now on TWO special missions. The not so secret one:
recruiting new members so the Busters can form a baseball team.
Preferably FEMALE recruits, as the current dude/babe ratio is an
inconvenient 4 to 1. The OTHER mission though, that's the strange one.
Because Riki and Rin, the group's singular girl, are receiving odd
messages, delivered by cats, concerning the existence of a "secret
world" and assigning them tasks they have to complete. Were their
youthful dreams of being crusaders not so fanciful after all? Or is
there something even more vital at stake? Between steeling his courage
to talk to girls and dealing with his own narcolepsy, Riki may just need
the strength of a superhero to solve the ultimate mystery of the LITTLE
BUSTERS!

SYNOPSIS:
When an unplanned stop on a deserted island gives Takashi, Saeko and
the rest of the ragged band of survivors a chance to expose themselves
to something other than zombie bites for a change, they're more than
ready to take a break and let their hair down. Discovering the remnants
of an old beach store, the entire group strips to swimsuits and sets
out to make the uninhabited island inhabitable, but they're unaware that
this seeming paradise is actually just the dead calm before the storm.
Because sometimes the recently deceased aren't the only problems that
can lie buried in the sand, and as the swimwear comes off and the
inhibitions come down, a kink in the island's food chain sets a truly
shocking series of events into motion! You won't believe what comes out
next, but suffice it to say that the deserted island may not be so
deserted after all! It's an extra special H.O.T.D. that's even hotter
than usual as the naked and the dead come together like never before in

SYNOPSIS:
Things are NOT going well for Felicitá. For years, the island of
Regalo, has been protected by her father's "organization," the Arcana
Tarocco, whose success is due in no small part to the members' unusual
skills with Tarot Cards, not to mention the more usual guns and knives.
But now, unexpectedly, her father has decided to retire and, while the
fact that his position will be filled by the winner of a series of duels
doesn't worry Felicitiá, the fact that he's decided to throw HER into
the contest as part of the prize certainly does. Especially since some
of the contestants are her cousins, which is keeping things in the
family WAY too much! Fortunately, our lady shark has two aces up her
sleeve: as the head of the Swords Division, she's eligible to compete
for herself; and with her favored Card, The Lovers, she can snoop into
the minds of her would be suitors cum rivals. It's just too bad they
have their own card tricks! Roll the Batchelorette, the Sopranos and
that crazy gypsy from the fair into an insane anime calzone, half-bake
thoroughly and you've got a lot of spicy mayhem ahead in LA STORIA DELLA
ARCANA FAMIGLIA!
