Quite a few interesting titles in that batch for UK releases. While I can't say Ive enjoyed it I will probably end up eventually buying Tokyo Mew Mew #6, simply so I have the whole first series of the manga. Seeing as im getting Fruits Basket bit by bit with the UK release Fruits Basket #6 is also on my purchase list.

Some of the Erica Sakurazawa stories judging by the synopsis and age rating on the main Tokyopop site appear to be Yuri. May check out a few of those titles depending on how tasteful I find them after one volume (i.e. a good well portrayed story).

Already own Battle Vixens #6

They're quite boring actually! If you want Yuri manga, try Sweat & Honey, much better artwork too!

Thanks for the recommendation Miaka :D
 
I can't that there are many I want at the moment, I already have Battle Vixens 6 and I will probably get Fruits Basket 6 soon from Up1 anyway. Oh and I have gone off Battle Royale, I am tempted to start reading Mahoromantic tho.

Ah ok, thanks again! :)
 
I've already ordered Fruits Basket 6 from play.com (although in fact I have 7-11 already, just capitalising on the free delivery). I haven't started either series yet, but seeing Doll and Demon Diary on the list has reminded me that I intend to check them both out at some point.
 
Although there's not much there that interests me that I don't already own, it's rather nice to see these released over here.

There's not a lot in that list takes my fancy, Immortal Rain does look good however and I'll certainly be giving it a look.

I must admit the synopsis of Immortal Rain quickly took my fancy when I first read about it (I think the title might have enticed me too, it's the sort of thing that draws my attention), but have yet to purchase it amidst the flood of great titles. I may have to correct that soon.
 
Cant say im really botherd with many of those titles, except mabey Tokyo Mew Mew #6 :3 i might consider checking out Immortal Rain eventully as it looks quite good ^_^
