New Manga Shout Out: 5/20/09 - 5/26/09

Here's the next batch of newly started series that are all hosted on Mangahelpers. This week we had quite a number of new series so if a series is missing, then I'll probably put it in next week. If you like any of them, remember to favorite them. Don't forget to also thank the various translators, raw uploaders/scanners and scanlators who feed your manga addiction. ^_^ Translators and Scanlators, please check out these series and see if you can spread some more manga love~

These series from last week still don't have scanlations so remember to check these out and give some love: Blood Type V | Gamaran | Golf 13 | Happa Iro | Jeep and Wagon | Kanojo no Shiawase | Little Brave Pukateriosu | Space Salesman Sharumero. (I recommend Blood Type V, Gamaran, and Golf 13 :P)

These are the series from the first and second Shout Out that haven't been given any love: Baka to Test to Shoukanjyuu | Captain Tsubasa Oversea Games in Calcio | Hikari Joshi Chikyuu Bouei Iinkai SHAM! | Kachou Reijou | Kindaichi Case Files: The Murder of Inspector Kenmochi | Koharu no Hibi | O-Oku Cha-Ka-Pon! | Tenkyuugi -Sephirahnatus- (has TL) | Uchi wa Ookii.

Isoyama Kaori has been practicing kendo under the stern eye of her father since she was three. As her father only shows warmth and affection to winners, she throws herself into training. Now in junior high school, she places 2nd in the Junior High school kendo tournament, yet all she sees is the shame of failure.

Determined to fight until victory, she enters a small, local tournament where she encounters Koumoto Sanae in the first round. Sanae comes from a broken home, and is mediocre at best when it comes to kendo, but for some reason she throws Kaori off stride.

Sparks fly as Kaori, who must win at any cost encounters Sanae, who is not overly concerned with winning, but is fascinated by the beauty of kendo. Sanae's casual and somewhat wimpy attitude gets under Kaori's skin. Kaori's ruthless and brusk attitude gets Sanae worked up.

These two are surely destined to head to the same high school and continue to clash with each other.

The art is done by the same artist who did Shion no Ou, so it's crisp and detailed, yet with a lively vitality that makes the kendo fights pop with power and motion.

Thanks go to boke for the summary.

The man possesses the power of the same "devil's contract" that has become taboo, now that peace has been restored.
