My favorite was probably Crimson Hero followed by Godchild[just twisted] but Absolute Boyfriend was definately the funniest.Her flashback scene totally cracked me up

Godchild had the points for the weirdest...that was for sure. And had really good art. I do have to say I was intrigued enough that reading the next chapter sounds fun.

Ribon is a Japanese manga magazine, it's about 350-400 pages and usually has about 10 different manga in it. The ones that are in Shojo Beat sounds like ones that would have been published in Ribon.

Shojo Beat!

So I just got my hands on an exclusive shojo beat preview, it looks really good, especially Absolute Boyfriend. Reminds me of Ayashi No Ceres, heh, well of course it does. Yuu Watasi created that too. Has anyone ever heard of Ayashi No Ceres?

Oh and was I the only one that wasn't aware that tehy were doing a manga too? The manga book style they are doing has a completely differnet set of manga in it! I am very tempted to buy it.

I can't wait to get the second!
