The Arcade At The End
Saihate Arcade· 最果てアーケード
manga

Somewhere out there, is a small shopping arcade full of quirky, mysterious stores. There you can meet with a lace-seller who deals in ornate lacework left behind by the deceased or find yourself in a shop that sells "artificial animal eyes". Follow the young landlady of the arcade as she interacts with the store owners, their customers, and the magical objects they deal in, interacting with spirits and drawing on powers from beyond the grave.

The Housekeeper and the Professor
Hakase no Aishita Suushiki· 博士の愛した数式
manga

Each morning, the Professor and the Housekeeper are introduced to one another. The Professor may not remember what he had for breakfast, but his mind is still alive with elegant mathematical equations from the past. He devises clever math riddles—based on her shoe size or her birthday—and the numbers reveal a sheltering and poetic world to both the Housekeeper and her ten-year-old son. With each new equation, the three lost souls forge an affection more mysterious than imaginary numbers, and a bond that runs deeper than memory. (Source: Penguin Books)

Edu-manga: Chiaki Mukai
Chiaki Mukai· 向井千秋
manga

This new line of Edu-Manga* features Astro Boy, one of Japan's most popular icons among children who journeys alongside the reader. He provides for kids not only a history lesson but also a richer understanding of the life lessons these historical figures share with us. With two trips into space, Chiaki Mukai is Japan's most traveled astronaut. Her last mission was on the space shuttle Discovery, researching weightlessness with veteran U.S. astronaut and Senator John Glenn. In the tests, she found it easy to do somersaults, but had trouble touching the cabin floor. ''Some things that can easily be done on Earth cannot be easily done in space,'' she says. *Note: Edu-Manga is a term coined in Japan which means Educational Manga.
