I don't think I've put these up before, but I really feel like I have.
Title: わたしの狼さん, My Wolf
Author: 藤原 ここあ (Fujiwara Cocoa)
Genre: Shoujo Shounen, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance
Total Volume Count: 2
Serialized in: Square Enix GanGan Wing
Summary from MangaUpdates:
Bored of sitting around holding a wine glass all day, the Demon Lord is looking for something new. Something cute. Someone like Komomo, the level 0 heroine who has just appeared before him, ready to vanquish him like all heroes (or heroines) do. Faced with a demon king who'd rather watch TV under a kotatsu and make out with her than spread evil over the land, what will Komomo do?
Kenn's Comment: It ran in GanGan Wing, which makes it shounen, but I think that it'd appeal more to girls than it would to guys. Kinda like Superior. Anywho, this is the prequel to Dear, telling the story of Komomo and the Demon King. It's really cute and entertaining.
Title: Dear, ティア
Author: 藤原 ここあ (Fujiwara Cocoa)
Genre: Shoujo Shounen, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance
Total Volume Count: 12
Serialized in: Square Enix GanGan Wing
Summary from MangaUpdates:
Kenn's Comment: Yes, the English title came before the Japanese one. It's stylized as 'Dear', therefore, the English title is the main title. This is the sequel to わたしの狼さん. The first few volumes focus on Chiruha and co., though Komomo and company later return to the limelight. Just like わたしの狼さん, it's a cute RPG-esque romantic-comedy that'll appeal to both girls and guys alike. Or maybe I'm just a tad bit effeminate. That aside, it is listed as shounen, and runs in a shounen magazine and if it got 12 volumes, plus the two that わたしの狼さん got, you can tell it was fairly popular.Meet Chiruha: She lives alone in a small secluded house deep in a mountainous forest, the TV her only connection to the outside world. After years of watching and dreaming of what life must be like in the outside world, she has gathered up her courage to venture out and explore the local village. However, she must be careful not to stand out among the humans, for Chiruha holds a secret...
Kisara also holds a secret...and a grudge. He's searching for who--or whatever cursed him, and he may have finally found the answer...
