Will be starting Winter Anime Previews next week I guess (next week being the 6th of December).

On another note, can you believe this is the 80th installment of the Weekly Manga feature?



Title: はぴまり ~Happy Marriage!?~, Happy Merry, Hapi Mari
Author: Enjouji Maki
Genre: Josei, Comedy, Romance
Serialized in: Shogakukan Petit Comic
Total Volume Count: 4 (ongoing)

Summary from Aerandria:
Men - they're the root of Takanashi Chiwa's problems, which is why she never had the time nor the opportunity to have a boyfriend in her entire life. A full-time office lady and a part-time hostess, she works night and day to pay off her dad's debt from his failed business. One night at her part-time job, a high-class customer has her fired. Then the next day, she's called in to see the president - whom she had never even seen before in the office - only to find out she's to marry him! But what kind of guy is Mamiya Hokuto anyway? Will he become one of Chiwa's problems, or will he save her from them? And will this marriage even last?! 

Kenn's Comment: Yeah, yeah, you can more or less call this one a chick flick. Don't see this one having any cross-audience appeal. That being said, it's a pretty good read. It is a wee bit typical, but the characters make up for that. I guess I should note that the series contains it's fair share of smut, parental guidance is strongly advised. That being said, I don't really think younger kids should really be reading josei anyways. It's meant for a more mature audience from the get go. Go read some shounen or shoujo or something kids.
