Dezicon -- ODA Tomohito

Dezicon -- ODA Tomohito

Synopsis:

Hoshino Shiho is known in school as a major delinquent, and there are even three students who repeatedly ask her to be a part of her 'gang.' While Shiho does talk pretty rough, and she does beat up bullies when they're in her way, she really doesn't think of herself as a delinquent.

One night, in her family's hot spring inn, a spaceship crashes into the bathhouse. The alien from inside, "Dejiraoki Seco Omega," claims he has come to conquer and destroy Earth, as he has destroyed many planets before it. Luckily for Shiho, another alien soon shows up and manages to leash Omega to a video-game-like controller.

Finding herself in possession of this controller, Shiho promptly uses it to force him to take responsibility for the mess he's made of the bathhouse. Now Shiho has an angry alien under her control, but who knows what else is out there to threaten the Earth?

A Nation's Gentleman Without Equal!! -- TAJIMA Kazuki

Synopsis:

There is a hidden island that is a mecca for martial artists. There are different reasons people go there–because they want to become amazing at their art, or simply because they come from a family known for martial arts and they are sent there by their parents. In any case, new arrivals sign a contract that they can't leave for 10 years, and that contract is strictly enforced. Within the complex, there is a forbidden area…

Ro is a new arrival, and he was hoping to hone his skills. However, it seems to him that he's gaining nothing, and is just being required to drag himself down to the level of his inferior peers. One day, he opens the door in the forbidden area, and finds a boy who had been trapped there for ten years. The boy remembers little of his life before, and Ro names him "Kid." Kid is determined to leave the complex and search for his father. Maybe if Kid can get help from Ro and other new friends he makes, such as a sad, bullied young girl named Mugi, he will be able to begin his search!
