I hadn't heard anything about Natsume's Book of Friends ending, did I miss that? It looks like next month's LaLa still has a chapter... World is Still Beautiful was in the most recent HtY and I don't recall seeing any fanfare about it being close to the end so it should still be going too.

The special Mizutama Honey Boy comes with a booklet that will include 2 short comics, some sketches, and maybe preliminary drawings (like from initial series planning?) if my interpretation of Google is to be trusted. I bought volume 4 while I was in Japan! I couldn't remember what I'd collected up to, but I knew I wasn't that far, and the bookstore had it packaged with a little trading card thingy~ Two cover designs is no fair, though. And I like the regular cover more...!!!

Oh, lucky France yet again!! That title does sound like it'd be Kanoko-sama...

"I hadn't heard anything about Natsume's Book of Friends ending"
no, i was just guessing based on a couple of seeming familiar kanji "第21巻", Thanks for clarifying :)
Same for The world is still beautiful, I kind of hope that it'll end soon!

I'm debating if I want to get the special Honey boy for the extra, I'm hoping that the simple cover may be included in the drawings - yeah, I know wishful thinking. The French collector's version of Ugly Princess didn't include the original cover :(
