Introducing an all-new supernatural comedy manga series about a vampire stuck in high school for all eternity!

My Pathetic Vampire Life is a witty and hilarious ongoing manga series about a teenage boy who was turned into a vampire at the age of sixteen and is now doomed to repeat his sophomore year in high school again and again and again.

Koide was turned into a vampire at the age of sixteen—one hundred and thirty-three years ago. Now, poor Koide is trapped

in an eternal loop of the same old homework, the same boring lectures and meaningless tests, and an ever-unquenchable thirst for blood. Koide has repeated his uneventful sophomore year of high school one hundred and thirty-three times, and now, in his one hundred and thirty-fourth year, he doesn’t expect things to change—and is frankly too bored to care. But his classmates this year seem a little different than before. They’re thrilled to have a vampire in their midst and are eager to do whatever they can to help. Will “134” be Koide’s lucky number or is that just wishful thinking?

Rose Ishikawa is best known as the author and artist of My Pathetic Vampire Life.

For fans of My Monster Secret comes a fresh, elvish take on the monster girl genre!

Species Domain is an all-new series for fans of supernatural comedic hijinks in the monster girl genre. Offering a fresh twist on monster girls, Species Domain is chock-full of elves, dwarves, demons, and more in a hilarious tale of beings born into the modern world with familiar mythological features—but without any of the magical quirks and powers that come with it. It’s not easy being pointy-eared or sprouting wings when your classmates are still predominantly humans, all awaiting your big magical debut, which will never come!

With expressive artwork and a unique cast of fantastical characters, Species Domain is an ongoing manga series that fans of titles like Monster Musume won’t want to miss. Each hilarious volume contains full-color inserts.

Every so often, a child is born with the features of a legendary being. From long, graceful elvish ears, to burly dwarven muscles,

or an oni’s horns, you never quite know who, or what, you’ll see walking down the street these days. However, none of these individuals are born with the inherent traits their species are known for, and no one is more painfully aware of this than Kazamori. Born with the appearance of an elf, everyone expects her to wield magic, but she just can’t do it! Kazamori has managed to hide this fact until now, but when an ordinary human who can use his own science-based version of magic learns the truth about her, what’s a young elf girl in high school to do?

Noro Shunsuke is a Japanese manga creator best known for his debut work, Species Domain.
