I had no idea nobody scanned the lulu metallic poster… it’s such a pretty thing too. It’s nice and shiny; the scan doesn’t do it justice. I had some trouble scanning this poster =x It doesn’t fit on the scanning bed of course, so I had to scan it in sections… I mean, I scan stuff in sections and merge them in photoshop all the time, so it wasn’t a big deal… until my scanner gave me totally different colors for the different sections o_O I being lazy, tried to compensate in photoshop and adjust the colors… but it was just too different, and the scan came out looking washed-out ;_; I changed the scanner settings and rescanned the whole thing, so now it’s all nice and pretty <3 Yeah, it’s darker, but that’s how the poster is…

I said I’d write a review on this artbook like 2 months ago or something… ^^;; I’m too busy to write a full review on it, but in my opinion, the artbook is well worth the money. It isn’t one of those super huge artbooks. It’s about the size of the tsubasa chronicles artbook Album de Reproductions (about A4 size). This artbook collects 127 illustrations that appeared in various anime magazines. I think most of the book has been scanned and uploaded to animepaper.net by suemura, so I have no plans to scan this book. For people not sure about the content and who are collecting the scans, I’ve scanned the index at the back.

I bought this box of 40-pack of bleach stickers. I must say it was a a good buy @around $65. There were only 5 sheets I didn’t like. Each sheet is individually sealed in its own envelop (the envelop was really pretty), so when my package came, I sat around and spent a while opening to see what’s all inside. Anyway, sample scans below.

Even though I’m not that fond of the art, I really like the story, action, and characters. I’ve read the manga up to the latest scanlated chapter and watched the anime up to the latest subbed episodes :D
Pretty good chunk of material in the animedia this month. There are also spreads in newtype and animage. I hate scanning animage ~_~ I can’t flatten it for the life of me and I don’t want to do 4 scans like I did for the newtype scan anyway.

Wasn’t impressed with the June animedia… actually I’m disappointed except for the nice soul eater section. Well, I guess I really like the code geass clearfile that came with it. Anyway, I only scanned the soul eater spread and the gundam 00 popup stand thing. Didn’t really like the Animage that much either. Where are my bishies? ;_; The animage cover is pretty though. Animage came with Gundam 00 playing cards. I scanned a couple of cards. The back is black with the celestial being symbol and the words mobile suit gundam 00. The face of the cards feature characters cut from scenes in the anime mostly. The aces and jack, queen, and king cards feature our meisters. Spades - setsuna, hearts - tieria, clubs - lockon, diamonds - allelujah.

The magazine itself is a compilation of past illustrations that appeared in animedia. All the illustrations are textless <3 There are large sections on Darker than Black and Tsubasa/holic, which made me a happy fangirl. The magazine also had a ridiculous amount of Kyou Kara Maou material, like 1/3 of the illustrations!! I think I’m exaggerating a bit, but not too much. See below for some sample scans.
What about other series in it? Well, I’m too lazy and busy to scan them. So… buy a copy yourself =p

Lots of love to starlady38 for letting me use her translations for these 2 chapters of Kobato. Most of the sfx were left out (I think I only did a page with sfx) since starlady didn’t translate them, and I’m to lazy to translate them myself. Drop 6.5 is from the May Newtype and Drop 7 is from the June Newtype. If you’re confused about the numbering, see my post below. Anyway, they’re the 2 latest chapters.

If you prefer the raws to the English scanlations, I posted the raws in the posts below. Please do not remove the credits page if you want to host these elsewhere. Thanks and enjoy~

This month’s furoku is a Kobato bookmark and some sticker sheets featuring neogenesis evangelion and code geass. I scanned them, but I’m too lazy to clean them up, so I’ll just update the post with them later. This month has too many girls and not enough boys u_u Managed to scan the bishies from this month.
Scans in order, Gundam 00 (illustration by Kouga Yun), Neo Angelique, and Junjou Romantica. Click on thumbnails to enlarge.

Woot! Finished scanning. Okay, this time it’s the real Drop 7. I’m really confused… Which chapter was last month’s Newtype then? There wasn’t a cover page associated with last month’s chapter, so I counted, and it should have been chapter 7. However, this month’s Kobato chapter very clearly has a Drop 7 cover page @_@ Anyway, I’ve named last month’s chapter to 6.5 for a lack of a better name (I didn’t change the file names of the pages inside though) and to avoid confusion. So, Drop 6.5 is from May and Drop 7 is from June.
Without further ado, here’s Kobato drop 7 from the June Newtype.
Download Kobato drop 7. (from Newtype June)
Translations thanks to starlady38.
There were also a few pages on merchandise and an ad for Volume 2.
And the furoku that came with the June Newtype.
