While others are in the streets protesting, one young medical student becomes embroiled in a different kind of battle. As new medical technologies to save and extend lives come into play, the temptation for a surgeon to play God has never been so powerful. Even as he strives to prove his own skills to his colleagues, Hazama Kuroo begins to suspect that the potentials for abuse inherent in the medical system are already being exploited. To attempt to change the system means risking his own promising career as a surgeon, and to move against the perpetrators will put his own life in danger. However, as a doctor, how can he not act when lives are on the line? The diagnosis is murder as the origin of Osamu Tezuka’s legendary rogue surgeon Black Jack is finally revealed in YOUNG BLACK JACK!

SYNOPSIS: Some guys wait their entire lives to meet the girl of their dreams, but Rihito is already living with three of them! How did a high school freshman get so lucky? Well, the truth is that Anne, Aines, and Lene aren’t normal girls: they’re Shinki - 6-inch-high, customizable androids that are the latest hit in the toy world. Don’t let their tiny size or doll-like appearance fool you; these little ladies have more than full-size intelligence and emotions, and, since each one would secretly prefer to be Rihito’s favorite, there’s always a little mechanical friction going on.

Things only get wilder when the girl is unexpectedly freed. Suddenly, the mines are invaded by giant robots controlled by a secret military organization, which is in turn fought off by a mysterious being made of crystal! That leaves Sogo, Kaon, and their friends scrambling to figure out what to do with Felia, a red-eyed girl with strange powers who doesn’t even speak their language!

However, not everyone is willing to bow to the Rodo and their disciples, and resistance groups like Hazzard continue to fight back. Seeking revenge against the man who killed his mother, a young man named Ran sets out to join Hazzard, but fate intervenes and he finds himself in the middle of a battle between the two sides. Hoping to rescue a beautiful silver-haired girl named Aira, Ran will ultimately take on an even greater mission: to learn the shocking secrets that both Hazzard and the Rodoists have been hiding from the world. The classic adventure that enthralled a generation returns in GREEN LEGEND RAN!

It’s part of a plan to help the budding boy band become the star singing attraction at the famous Triple S sports festival, but Haruka and the boys can’t help but wonder if being divided into Cross Units won’t end up making them cross with each other instead. It doesn’t help that the festival’s current top pick is the band made up of ST☆RISH’s own senior supervisors, QUARTET NIGHT! No matter what motivations their manager Saotome Shining might have for playing mix-and-match with these golden-throated gents, their future is ultimately going to be determined by their loyalty to each other and Haruka’s ability to convert everything into song. Music is the most extreme sport and the competition is on in UTA NO PRINCE-SAMA REVOLUTIONS!

SYNOPSIS: When new transfer student Isuzu asks Seiya Kanie out on a date at gunpoint, he knows something odd is going on. Especially since she wants to go to Amagi Brilliant Park, where the rides are either dangerous or mind-numbingly dull and the only costumed performers who aren’t rude or apathetic are the ones who didn’t show up for work. So when Isuzu asks Seiya to take over as the park’s new manager, he knows she’s crazy. (Well, crazy-er, given the gunpoint thing.) But when Seiya learns that Amagi Brilliant Park is a REAL Magic Kingdom, that the costumed performers aren’t wearing costumes, that they live off the energy created by attendees, and that unless they can attract 250,000 attendees in three months, they’ll lose their jobs and homes… he goes a little crazy himself. But, even with the aid of scantily clad fairies, giant mice and sniper-trained sheep, can anyone rescue a park that’s sunk so low that its own bus doesn’t stop there anymore? The race is on to get the turnstiles turning and save AMAGI BRILLIANT PARK!
