Kind of surprised to see Fairy Tail up that high. The recent chapters have been lackluster, if anything.

Ahiru no Sora at vol. 24 vol. 23!? I hope the scanlators can speed up releases for it then. :(

Edit: fixed. ...

Regardless, I've only seen up to chapter 20 released here. Unless there are english releases that I'm not aware of.
