Kodansha announces “Fairy Tail – Blue Mistral” and “L❤︎DK” Licenses at NYCC

At NYCC this week Kodansha announced that they will be releasing “Fairy Tail – Blue Mistral” a spinoff manga about Wendy from Fairy Tail currently running in Nakayoshi, and “L❤︎DK” a high school shoujo running in Betsufure.

Fairy Tail – Blue Mistral  by Rui Watanabe just began running in Nakayoshi this past August, so I’m surprised that we’re getting it here so quickly. The story is centered around young wizard Wendy’s adventures with her flying cat Carla while in the Fairy Tail Guild. They are on a mission to solve a mystery in Nanaru village. I’m sure fans of Fairy Tail will love this series, but it could also bring in younger girls who would enjoy reading about Wendy and her flying cat solving cases.

L❤︎DK has been running in Betsufure since 2009 and is at 14 volumes, a longer series for Kodansha. This high school shoujo by Ayu Watanabe follows the new couple Shusei and Aoi. Shusei is the high school’s resident “prince” and has a reputation of coldly turning down any of his suitors. Aoi’s best friend is rejected by Shusei, cementing Aoi’s disdain for him. However, when Shusei’s apartment burns to the ground, the two end up rooming together.

This one has been on my radar for a couple of years now. I think the story is entertaining, and of course the two love birds playing house can be steamy at times. It’s an interesting choice for Kodansha. It just had a live action last year, so its quite a popular series. I’m excited we’re getting it.
