New Manga Serializations in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh April Issue
There is some really great news for manga fans today. Two brand new series have just kicked off in the April issue of Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh by KADOKAWA, which is officially hitting the stands today on February 26th. The first one is titled Next Door Thighs, created by Ma Shirotani, and the second one is I Am Not a Succubus, which is written by Nora Kogashi and illustrated by Chronosuke Hakuta. Both of these look like they are going to bring something very fresh to the table for readers who enjoy unique rom-coms and fantasy stories.

A Close Look at Next Door Thighs
The story of Next Door Thighs, or "Mr. Thighs Next Door" as some might call it, focuses on a school boy named Kuonji. Now, Kuonji is a bit unique because he has a secret obsession—he is absolutely fascinated by the thighs of the girl sitting right next to him in class, Kyoko Taimomo. In his heart, he even refers to her as "Mr. Thighs" because he thinks she has the best thighs ever. It sounds a bit funny but it’s actually a very sweet and awkward romantic comedy setup.
To give the fans a proper head start, the first release actually features two episodes at once. In the very first episode, we get to see a quite hilarious moment where Kyoko Taimomo catches an eraser that Kuonji accidentally dropped using only her thigh. This kind of quirky interaction is exactly exploring Next Door Thighs and why many people are already getting interested in this manga. The art style looks very clean and fits the light-hearted tone perfectly.


The Intriguing World of I Am Not a Succubus
Moving on to the next big release, I Am Not a Succubus is a manga adaptation based on a popular novel. The story revolves around Rislinde, a talented magician studying at the prestigious Forst Academy. Her life takes a very unexpected turn when she meets a hero who has been transferred to the school under some rather mysterious circumstances. After they exchange simple greetings, Rislinde starts feeling a very strange sensation inside her that she cannot explain.
Before she even realizes what is happening, she finds herself making a very weird and bold request to the hero. While Rislinde is totally confused about her own behavior, it seems like the hero might actually know the secret reasons behind her sudden urges. It is a story that deeply depicts the inner struggles of a girl who is trying her best to resist these strange, hidden circumstances. For those who like a mix of magic and high school drama, this is definitely something to watch out for.
