Mini-Goddess 30, Volume 39, and more bonus scans!

It may have been two days since my last post according to relative time. But according to the infallible Gregorian calendar and my time machine owned and operated by Mesaba Airlines, it is still merely "tomorrow" compared to my last post, hence, Scanspam Week is still on schedule.

Anyway, here's this month's 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.








URD: Are you sure? I mean, I can do this for you, but it probably won't turn out to be a good thing.
CAPTION: CONTINUED ON THE OCTOBER ISSUE!


And that's the final Mini-Goddess that I'm going to be posting here, since I'm back in the States and I won't be buying issues of Afternoon anymore. (*sniff*) Sadness!

Oh yeah, and I still have no idea what the actual punchline for this arc of strips is going to be yet, either.

Anyway, volume 39 of the manga is here! And it kicks ass, as usual.

Chapter 251 rocked pretty hard, too. For instance, we finally got to see what hell looks like:

Yep, definitely keeping up with the whole "roots of the world tree" setting there. But my favorite part of the chapter, however, was this totally kickass (but as of yet un-named) new character:

Epic dress is epic. My apologies for the wretched bleedthrough on these scans.

And finally, here's this month's anniversary bonus comic. It's drawn by the same guy who does Mokke, apparently. The "izuna" creature in this comic is actually a crossover character from the Mokke manga.

Random info: According the inside flap on volume 39 of the manga, our lovely villianess for this story arc is indeed named Hagall. Which, like Sigil, is apparently the name of a rune...?

Oh well. Since chapter 247 was included in volume 39, I'm working on replacing these fugly old scans with lovely new non-bleedthrough scans. Like so. And so. Thoses pages are all scanned and should be uploaded to the gallery shortly.

Tomorrow: Scanspam Week continues with.... (*points to a random image group in the Scanspam folder*) Okay, then. Tomorrow is Free-For-All Shounenapalooza Day! I hope you all want to see Sheryl Nome's barenaked butt. AND Amuro Ray's barenaked butt. Because you will be seeing both of them tomorrow. (And for context, yes, tomorrow will all be official imagespam, not doujin. You can blame Newtype for Amuro Ray's butt. No, seriously. And not even Newtype Romance. I'm talking the regular Newtype, people.)

I think Hagall is a reference to "Hagalaz", which insinuates "Wrath of nature, destructive, uncontrolled forces, especially the weather, or within the unconscious. Tempering, testing, trial. Controlled crisis, leading to completion, inner harmony. Hagalaz Merkstave (Hagalaz cannot be reversed, but may lie in opposition): Natural disaster, catastrophe. Stagnation, loss of power. Pain, loss, suffering, hardship, sickness, crisis.".

There are gorgeous illustrations, though! Mind if I use them for my next icon dump?

OMG Urd! Is she blushing seeing a cute little girl??? lol

Makai looks lovely, I wish the entire chapter appeared online sooner now. And the volume cover is pretty. (Even though Fujishima was too lazy to create new outfits and copied them from the movie, I love it anyway.)

Thanks a lot for sharing!
