Anime News Network reported Hakusensha’s Hana to Yume will receive a shonen spin-off manga magazine in Fall 2020. Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts creator Yu Tomofuji will launch a new series in the still as of yet to be named spin-off magazine. The new anthology will be a digital manga magazine which Hakusensha is creating in response to the rise in shonen manga fans among girls and women. Hana to Yume itself is also gender inclusive according to Hakusensha. The lengthy build-up to the new magazine is certainly something to be pumped-up about!

Crunchyroll has added Kirakira Pretty Cure a la Mode to its library of Japanese animation. Toei Animation produces the animation for the magical girl series. Crunchyroll began simulcasting (simultaneously broadcasting) Healin Good Pretty Cure in June 2020.

The magical girl franchise focuses on a group of girls who battle against the forces of evil. It will be exciting to see how Crunchyroll’s licensing of Pretty Cure develops over time.

Oresama Teacher concentrates on the school festival battle between gangs in these chapters. The former bancho personally internally struggles on the decision whether he wants his head position at the school back. The ultimate result of this is a well paneled battle between him and an entire gang. Notably absent for this fight scene is the heroine who has been rendered unconscious. For people who enjoy thrilling action sequences these chapters are worth a read.

Anonymous noise chose to focus on the origins of In No Hurry this chapter. Nino discovers that she was inspiration for the formation of the band and about Yuzu’s tragic past. It was a moving and tragic chapter as Yuzu’s hospitalization has not previously been addressed in the story but this chapter it takes central stage. For people who enjoy emotional stories this chapter makes for a thrilling read.

This Oresama Teacher chapter focuses on Mafuyu and her companions. Mafuyu doubts whether their newest member who is an ex-student council member is truly on their side or not. This is mostly a comic relief chapter which does not take itself too seriously as the gang goofs around together. For fans of  light-hearted comedy this chapter is worth a read.

The focus of this Oresama Teacher chapter is on the different factions. Mafuyu and her friends discuss their daily lives while the villains plot their next move. The series implies some nefarious things are about to occur because of the student council. I like the way the series treats the school as a microcosm of the way society functions. If you enjoy chapters that balance the tight rope between light-hearted and dark masterfully I recommend checking out this chapter.
