Today we glance over the June issue of Megami Magazine and its usual explosion of bishoujo visuals and pin-ups. Prevalent in this issue are your representatives of the newly aired Spring '07 shows and indeed enough of them to please and excite the amorous and eager explorers of two-dimensional female flesh. Does Megami succeed here in reeling in the reader with its voluptuous wiles? Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS, Nagasarete Airantou, Kamichama Karin Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo, sola, Touka Gettan, Ikkitousen: Dragon Destiny iDOLM@STER XENOGLOSSIA, To Heart 2 OVA, Zero no Tsukaima ~Futazuki no Kishi~ Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica, Saint October, Kishin Taisen Gigantic Formula, Hitohira Rocket Girl, Hayate no Gotoku, Negima!? (yet more) Negima!?, Seto no HanayomeMegami, as we've been seeing in several issues of late, has been this recurrent Nanoha machine -- in-depth features, posters (as usual), packed-in manga covers, standees, CD soundtracks, 1/1 real dolls (wait, that's not true) -- however, this issue we're seeing them falling back a bit with the Nanoha sally. And that makes this Nanoha fanboy, a little disappointed and flaccid in the gentleman's area. Indeed it's still featured as the main poster prize, but I suppose Megami has to take heed to the many new titles elbowing their way to get a fair slice of the attention pie. Despite how the styles seem to be noticeably less provocative as ye olde Megami issues would demonstrate, many fans of the new Spring shows (or the few, the proud, and the lewd that lurk this blog) should still be pleased with the selection that is served up here. Personally, it would have been nice to see Louise (and her fellow cast-mates) and the Hayate no Gotoku gang slip into something a little more... masturbatory, to the eyes, but we'll probably see more of that later as we're nearing into the heart of summer. A sighting of Yoko (of Gurren Lagann) would be justice as well. Sigh, I can only wish~Huge respect, it must be said, goes to the person responsible for the Hayate no Gotoku cover image, as he/she has taken the one scene that ignited a paroxysm of tingling sensations to yours truly and illustrated it... cleverly, I might add. A welcome variant to the traditional zettai ryouiki. Is there an actual term for this, by the way? :3I realised I have written more than I should have... uguu~ You people have eyes. If the posters gets your willy jumping (or for the female readers; ignites the yuri in you), buy this magazine. For the devoted buyers, the last few paragraphs of this entry are completely irrelevant.
