The first and only fan-tranned chapter of Seiken Tsukai no Kinju Eishou was in July this year. It was a unique manga. Male MC is the peak of a love triangle (so far) between a red haired, gainaxing incapable twin tail who is somewhat insecure about her self (and her breasts) and a darker haired somewhat forward (but possibly not sincerely) girl with dark hair and larger tatas. Needless to say I was intrigued by the originality.

Actually, as derivative as the characters seem, the plot was different enough to at least hold my attention. I would have looked forward to more if anyone ever bothered to continue the translations.

The location is a private high school populated with students who have memories of past lives in another dimension. Some fight the baddies with magic, and some fight the baddies with weapons. What makes our hero special is that he has memories of being both kinds in turn. He also recalls two different girls performing two different roles at his side. One of the girls seems to know more than she tells him. Everyone has secrets. End of chapter.

Most of these stories end up fizzing out, so the same old same old keeps me hoping that someday I will find one with a good through plot and ending. I can then stick a fork in them.

Shana kind of ended well, but very convoluted. It was a bit different than these dragonswordsorcerymagicschool stories anyway.

Familiar of Zero ended okay (the last ep. I saw had them ringing his doorbell), but I haven't picked up the LN yet. I still can't believe he would pick her over the three or six other potential interests. She was terrible, not that he didn't deserve some of it. However, from what I skipped through, it looks like it just starts dragging.

Same with Dragon Academy. the series ended with me wanting to pick up the story, but I just don't feel it's worth it whenever I try to.

I have not read past the point in Bald Dance where the anime left off yet, so that's an open book so far.

Totally dissatisfied with the red headed Sherlock Holmes ammo girl ending.

I wonder if the reason I like High School DxD is because the red head has bewbies?
