Penguin Brothers

Hina's new high school is strange to say the least. She moves back to her old home town only to find that the high school is run by two opposing factors, and students identify themselves based on the color of their school uniforms: Black for the followers of the loud, violent Nishizaki, and white for the followers of quiet, clean-freak Isshiki. T
hen there are the "grays," who wear street clothes.

Hina finds herself stuck between the leaders of the two factions, and it seems to be turning violent.
As one might guess from the girly art and the Ribon publisher, the plot develops a romance element pretty early on in the series. There's a love square involved among the leaders of the groups. Who will Hina choose?


Beaty Pop

a cute completed manga about a school where there is a group of talented kids that call them selves Scissors Project. They beautify selected lucky students in front of their fellow student audience to see the great transformation.

there is another girl that turns out to be even better at this then the group so the SP group try to recruit her as well. SP tends to pick pretty girls and then change their hairstyle to make them look better.

the other girl (main character) prefers to help the ones in need to help them gain confidence in themselves and works miracles. she usually has a 'dont care' attitude so the SP group find it hard to force her into helping them compete in competitions.

out of the SP group, they happen to be mainly male and have one guy talented in one area. eg. one guy in charge of nail art, one for haircut, one for purfume.. one for balancing everything as well as make up.

very cute ending too :)


One Piece

Meine Liebe

Erika Klause, who has been separated from her brother when she was little, decided to enter Rosenstolz Academy (in Germany), where she was sure to see him.
But what she encounters at first day of school is the five Strahl (King scholars) candidates, and three new girl friends, as well as tons of rumour-mongering classmates.
What could possibly go wrong at finding a long-lost brother in an exclusive school?
Kaichou wa maid sama

Ayuzawa Misaki is the student council president of the former all-boy school, Seika High School. In order to protect the girls, she battles the boys everyday. On the other hand, she secretly works at a "Maid Cafe". But a popular boy from school, Usui Takumi, found out!
