By Chihiro Sakutake

When demon princess Raffy married Roren, an immortal knight who safeguards humanity, as part of a new peace treaty between humans and demons, she hadn’t quite expected…that he’d fall for her?! Not only that, he’s weirdly stubborn enough to keep trying to get closer to her, despite repeatedly dying from the poison she naturally emits. Just how long will his adoration prevail…?

My Poison Princess Is Still Cute is a fun fantasy rom-com filled with pages of four-panel comics that feature adorable interactions between its eccentric cast. Complete in three volumes, this manga is perfect for fans of As Miss Beelzebub Likes.

After bringing an end to World War III, Touma Kamijou disappears from the world. Both sides—magic and science—take the time to rest and regroup. While Accelerator spends his days with Last Order and Misaka Worst, Shiage Hamazura uses the secrets he gained in Russia as a bargaining chip and returns to Academy City to reform Item. It seems like peace is here at last. That is, until a new group called the Freshmen arrives…

Off the heels of the upcoming August release of the gorgeous A Certain Magical Index: The Old Testament Omnibus Edition, fans of the series can rejoice in the highly anticipated release of this sequel series. A Certain Magical Index is an iconic light novel series that repeatedly ranked in the top ten of Takarajimasha’s This Light Novel Is Amazing! (Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi!) guidebook, landing it in its Hall of Fame—an honor granted to only seven series in the past. A Certain Magical Index was adapted into a popular anime series that was largely responsible for spreading awareness of light novels to Western fans.
