Mini-Goddess XXII

Okay, so... I guess the new Mini-Goddess strips aren't being divided into series of 4 anymore, since this month is the 22nd panel, but it's being advertised as the start of a new "strip." Um. Whatever. Anyway, here is Mini-Goddess, still being published on the spine of monthly issues of Afternoon. In case you missed any of the previous panels, you can find them all linked here.




TOP: NEW SERIES! URD'S COUNSELING SERVICE?!
GAN: Hey, Urd. I've got a question.
URD: What?
CAPTION: CONTINUED ON THE FEBRUARY ISSUE!



As for this month's 20th-Anniversary shenanigans... Well, the bonus goodie for this month's Afternoon was the Belldandy-with-flowers figure, of course. It's actually a magnet, not a full figure. But still awesome. There was also a little spread advertising the upcoming artbook, but still not revealing a release date. Volume 38 of the manga is out on December 22nd. Also, starting in March 2009, Kodansha will be releasing an Ah! My Goddess/You're Under Arrest collectible card game. The Afternoon advertisement promises cards with original artwork by Kosuke Fujishima, so hooray for that.

I'm really enjoying the current storyline in the manga, BTW. For the first time in a while. Which is kind of awesome.

Yay! Urd! :)

And I agree, this arc is much better than those we'd got during last few years. Any mentioning of Mara in the new chapter?

Unfortunately, no. I'm sure she'll show up again soon, though.

She must show up. What about Urd and Skuld? My guess is that the demon aura Urd felt was Mara's.

Urd showed up at the end of the chapter, which makes me think that Skuld can't be that far behind.

What chapter started the new arc? I have a feeling I'm behind. I havent read anything since the end of the Chrono thing.

Chapter 240, I think. Anyway, yeah, this is the story that started right after the end of the Chrono... thing.

"Thing" is a good way of putting it.
