Oh, I soooooooooooo want Kyou mo Ashita mo in English. (I may have expressed this before... (several times??)) I have about half the series in Japanese... may just get the rest, because it's ridiculously cute. I wonder what Emura-sensei will draw next!
"I may have expressed this before... (several times??)" I think you have since you're big fan of W-Juliet :) I think W-Juliet II is still on going, though, right? Whenever you have free time, would you mind gushing about "Kyou mo Ashita mo" :) I think I may have liked this series better :D
Kyou mo is made up entirely of things I love, like the the cute-boy shoujo mangaka and tiny-adorable-girl who wants to be a shoujo mangaka, and character crossovers from other Emura series... If/when I catch up on the series I'll have a squee-fest for your entertainment :D
Right, W Juliet II is up to 3 volumes now. She's been writing new chapters every so now and then; I haven't read closely enough to know if there's an ongoing plot or if it's just, "Hey, read more stuff about your favourite characters!" Hmm... The sequel to PSME started out as a one-shot and turned into a full-fledged series with a plot, though, so maybe! (speaking of things I really want to read in English...)
Next time I go to Kino, I'll get volume 1 and 2 of Kyou mo, if I can find them. The problem is, I can't read Japanese, so I'd bug you for details :) Doesn't the boy wear glasses, too? "speaking of things I really want to read in English..." Ooh, I want to see your list :) "The sequel to PSME started out as a one-shot and turned into a full-fledged series with a plot ..." I didn't know that, it was available in French, but I think there are a couple of volumes are oop, so I'm hoping that it'd be in English or Jmanga.
Ep 3: The Hares Break a Promise Under the Morning Sun Victorique and the others not only realize that the ship they're on is a replica of the Queen Berry, but also that the deadly events of ten years ago are playing out again. Facing the possibility of being murdered at every turn, the survivors begin to suspect each other, when suddenly, Ned, the English actor, dies before Kazuya's very eyes! Ep 4: The Golden Thread Cuts Through a Passing Moment One morning, when Kazuya is walking down the road to the village, he sees someone racing by on a motorbike. In the next instant, the driver's head is soaring through the air. Kazuya, a witness to the peculiar death, is arrested for suspicion of murder. Meanwhile, a new foreign exchange student arrives at the academy, Avril from England. And a mummified knight is discovered in the school's long-unused crypt?! Ep 5: There's a Mysterious Ghost in the Abandoned StorehouseRight after the mummy was discovered, Kazuya saw Avril holding a purple book in the crypt, and he can't get it out of his mind

Ep 9: Blue Roses Bloom in the Cannibal Department Store On a shopping errand for his older sister back home, Kazuya heads for Jiangtan, a department store in the capital city of Saubreme.

Meanwhile, Victorique is at home with a cold and Blois is in the capital trying to track down smugglers of stolen works of art. Ep 10: Girl With a Cold Dreams of Her Stubborn Friend In the basement of Jeantan, Kazuya found a real girl mixed amongst mannequins. Thinking that some kind of criminal activity is afoot, he consults with Blois at police headquarters. However, no evidence can be found. Kazuya calls Victorique for her help while at the same time pursuing a lead with Luigi, the boy he met in town. Ep 11: That Drill Eloquently Speaks of LoveA visitor comes to the academy and it turns out to be Jacqueline, wife of the police superintendent general and seemingly close

Ep 18: The Jet-Black Train Carries Several Lies Most people escaped from Beelzebub's Skull by train, the Masquerade. There, Kazuya and Victorique meet fellow passengers who only identify themselves as "an orphan", "a scarecrow", "a woodcutter" and "a knight". However, they're all actually agents of either the Ministry of the Occult or the Science Academy, and all are after the memento box that Roscoe hid in the convent many years ago. Suddenly, the room that Victorique and Kazuya are in is plunged into darkness! Ep 19: The Rose-Colored Life is Buried Under Fresh Snow Kazuya is excited by his first snowfall in Saubure. He heads to Saubreme to buy Victorique a present. In the capital, a presentation of "The Blue Rose of Saubreme" is being put on at the Phantom Theater, where Cordelia was once employed as a dancer. Meanwhile, the curtain comes up on the secret of Victorique's birth and her mother Cordelia's past...
