190,000 people evacuated in Fukuoka Prefecture due to mass flooding. Hopefully Kobako is safe and dry. |

Evidently, in the latest issue of Comic Blade, Kobako Totan has an 18-page story concerning "Bishoujo Mecha Espoir".Deal with that. |

Interestingly, I passed by the store today, was able to request the order for the LE specifically, but whether the order will succeed is a mystery until they send me the postcard telling me whether it came in or not. Crossing my fingers for that.In the meantime, the one thing I do know *is* coming to my mailbox -- the lone Sketchbook doujin from C81. Pretty excited. |

That thing definitely weighs more than Sora. |

Kinokuniya isn't coming through big for me this time. When I ordered Sangatsu no Lion 6 from them, I believe I received it one calendar day after its Japanese release date. When that happened, I thought human society had advanced to the point where nothing was impossible. They still show Sketchbook 8 as out of stock, however. Granted, Sangatsu no Lion is a much more popular series than Sketchbook.While waiting, I couldn't restrain myself from downloading a few of the volume 8 chapters in Chinese scanlation. Apparently Takane has a cat the size of like a #&$%ing deer? Who knew? The special edition has a slightly different cover. |

Also: the vol. 8 LE comes with this totebag (as opposed to the one that's shown on the MAG Garden store): |

Happy volume 8 release date~Gonna attempt to order the limited edition (feat. totebag) through US Kinokuniya; if it succeeds, I'll mention it. |

Volume 8 to be released in January 2012. There's a special edition, too, that comes with this totebag -> http://mag-garden-store.com/shopdetail/009005000006/095/004/order/Working off of memory here, but I'll get the link for you guys later once I get off of school. No cover art yet, or at least none that I've seen. |

Why does the MAL picture for Katagiri Himeko look nothing like Katagiri Himeko looks or has ever looked? |

スケッチブック⑧マダー?In the meantime, for the people who use Twitter and don't mind an extra tweet or two an hour, check out @sketchbookbot and @sketchbookbotEN. There's also a standalone Sora bot (in Japanese) at @KajiwaraSoraBot. |

Will Sketchbook see a volume 9? |

April 2011 Blade has a Sketchbook cover! And an extra comic!!http://mag-garden-store.com/shopdetail/002002000041/ "Warm and fluffy ♪ The laid-back art club 4-koma appears on the front cover!! We've also got an extra chapter for you!" The cover looks like it features just the main art club cast, naturally. |

Absolutely. Happy birthday, Kajiwara-san.Strangely, while we know her brother is 13, we don't actually know how old Kajiwara-san herself is; presumably 15 or 16. |
