That's the cover of a Comic High magazine. From their official website and the Japanese Wikipedia page, it looks like the two you asked about are Miman Renai (guy and girl) and Boku Cosplay Nanka Kyoumi Arimasen kara!! (blonde and brunette), a one-shot by SHIGUMA Tarou.


Thank you so much for replying!! Anime smile

spoiler[Alright here's the story, I'm looking for this is a oneshot romance Hentai manga where the girl goes back to her hometown and she then tells her grandma that she'll just go out to buy something. Then since it's a hot day, she finds herself sitting on a bench next to a vending drink machine that you can also play with. She remembers the memory of the night she spent with her boyfriend taking a chance with that vending machine, asking her "Do these things ever let you win?" after that they watched the fireworks by the beach together. Then, it starts to rain and another flashback shows them running though the rain, she suddenly stops and tells him she’s moving away. He’s shocked to find out that she’s leaving the next day. She tells him she couldn’t bring herself to tell him about. Then, her current self runs into the same barn like structure [it had hay] which she and her boyfriend did it for the first time. She remembers how she decided to do it with him even though she had told him she's moving away . She then says "LIAR" because she remembers her ex boyfriend promising that he would go and see her. Then her young self appears telling her that "It wasn't a lie. The memory and the feelings you both felt for each other that time was real." ]

Found it. It was Reminiscence by MIKAMI CANNON.

Hi,

I read a bit of this manga series sometime last year and really enjoyed it. Sadly, now I can't seem to remember hardly anything about it to find it again!
All I recall is that it featured a lolita-looking girl protagonist (can't remember if she was actually a child or just childlike in appearance) who ended up living in a Japanese inn with a fox or wolf demon she knew. This demon is eternally loyal to her and dotes on her, but is also her protector against harmful nonhumans. He also seemed to be romantically interested in her.

IIRC it was featured in the "Japanese Comic Ranking" at some point, and likely didn't have a corresponding page of its own for further information. Again, IIRC, it was simply the cover art that caught my eye, and so I Googled the series' name and went from there to a scanlation site. Embarassed I'd love, love, LOVE to know more about this series. If there's any chance it'll be licensed or not, etc. Either way, I want to own it.

Thanks for any help!

This is entirely a long-shot, but could it be Kamisama Hajimemashita? Your description is just right enough that this is a definite possibility. -_- And I checked some past comic rankings posts, and this was definitely mentioned.

Thanks. I feel bad for posting for help cuzz the next day I was on an image board for manga covers and came across the series. It's apparently called Youko X Boku SS.

Funnily enough, I've also read some of Kamisama Hajimemashita. Thanks so much for trying to help, love. It means a lot, even though I ended up finding the answer on my own. Embarassed

I have turned heaven and earth around trying to find this and failed miserably, so please help!

I've read this about five years ago, got it from library and can't remember its name. It was a book with several stories, and the one I'm interested in went like this:
Two scientists came up with this drug that turns you into a woman momentarily, and they both use it, until one day one of them doesn't turn back. After awhile they get married and have a daughter and one day the "wife" has turned back into a man and ends up killing himself (cheerful as ever, I know).

If anyone has any idea what the story's name could be, I'd be forever grateful.

That would be A, A' by Moto Hagio. It was published by Viz back in the 1990s.

i was just thinking about this one today, but i don't think i'll remember it any time soon, and i don't have much:

simply enough, it involves a girl being bullied and two popular guys (or transfer students maybe). the most that i can remember is that she has to go find something of the boys in the woods because of a trick or something like that.

it looked like an ongoing series, but that was all that i found when i read it before

This is a guess but could it be Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers)? I haven't read it myself but I know it involves a group of 4 popular guys ("F4") initially bullying the heroine, with 2 of them eventually vying for her affection.

I'm looking for this manga and all I can remember about it is there's this serial killer who goes after women. Once he has them he cuts off the top of their heads and plants a flower in their head and buries them in the ground. You can see the flowers but you couldn't tell the girls where there until they got dug up.

If anyone knows this manga series help would be much appreciated.
