Recently, I picked up  Accel World ... Volume 1 The year is 2046. Portable devices known as Neurolinkers have enabled mankind to oversee their daily life within virtual reality networks. But the advancements in technology have yet to provide a solution for the growing number of victims of bullying. Haruyuki Arita is one such student who finds himself on the lowest social rungs of his school. Ashamed of his miserable life, Haruyuki can only cope by indulging in virtual games. That all changes when Kuroyukihime, the most popular girl in school, approaches Haruyuki with a cryptic proposal: to "accelerate" further, and beyond.

I picked up Plastic Memories ... Volume 1 From the writer of Steins;Gate, Naotaka Hayashi, comes an original love story!! In this moment... I think I've already fallen in love with you, without even knowing your name. In a world where there were slight scientific advancements... Tsukasa Mizugaki is offered a position at the renowned SAI Corporation thanks to his father's connections. SAI Corporation is known for its production and management of androids capable of feeling human emotions called Giftia. Tsukasa's position is in the terminal service department where their main job is to recover Giftias who are near their expiration - it is a dead end department in every sense. To make matters worse, Tsukasa is assigned to work with a female Giftia named Isla, who was never given any responsibility other than serving tea to her co-workers.

I picked up Okami-san and Her Seven Companions ... Ryoko Okami, the wolf, and her BFF Ringo, also known as Little Red Riding Hood, are members of Otogi Bank - a high school club that helps classmates out of grim situations. One day, a meek young man proclaims his love to Ryoko, who does nothing but bite him in return. "You're much too weak for me," she huffs. So the boy joins Otogi Bank to prove he has the stuff to protect his beloved - even if it means taking a blow to the head with a lead pipe. He's no Prince Charming, but will Ryoko allow herself to have her own happily ever after?
