     - I like this story better than The Spindlers by the author.
• Manga:
  
  1. Gokusen 2-4 Kozueko Morimoto - in French
     - Continue slice of life in the school of delinquents little kittens as the principal called the students :)
     - The principal knew everything. He is not what he seems/looks. He's on the students' side.
     - There's a purse snatcher in the neighborhood.
     - A big 3rd year student came back and tipped the balance between 3rd years and 1st years. Wars.
     - More characters added.
     - The main character got a marriage proposal and how she got out of it
  2. Phantom Thief Jeanne 5 - The end by Arina Tanemura - Viz version
     - Borrowed from APL
     - There are twists and turns but a good story.
  3. Baby-sitters 1 by Hari Tokeino - in French
     - Lots cute chibis.
     - Lives of kids in the daycare.
     - There's no romance element, lots of cute kids. Slice of life. I don't think I'll continue. If I want cute kids, I'd follow Love so Life instead since there's romance, orphans, unrequited love ...
  4. Pixie Pop: Gokkun Pucho 1-2 by Ema Toyama
     - borrowed from OPL
     - Cute arts.
     - The story seems a bit shallow. I don't see why the main character would fall in love with the hero besides he was nice to her once when they were in elementary school. There are some funny moments due to magic goes wrong.
     - I'm not the demographic target :)
  5. Midnight Secretary 7 - The end by Tomu Ohmi
     - Borrowed from ILL.
     - Objections from Kaya's mother.
     - The part about the fetus protecting the mother is cute.
     - There may be challenges in the future but they will stick together.
