   	Bakuman volume 3 continues the story of the kids trying to   
   become mangaka and get an anime on screen by the time they turn   
   18.  The artist becomes pals with what appears to be an idiot   
   savant of manga and learns something from the experience.  The   
   author spends lots of time with his girlfriend and studies   
   cell phones novels and both will return to the studio with very   
   similar ideas.   
      
   	Ooku takes an interesting term as the Shogun loses her   
   beloved daughter and is long past the age of fertility.  The   
   men of the Ooku are very upset and fail to realize that the   
   shogun is barren so they strive to get her pregnant and the   
   shogun is becoming a bit of a lech.  The problem with inheritance   
   is resolved in the last few pages.   
      
   	Both of these stories continue to interest me.   
   	Hope my economic problems will let me continue   
   to follow them and a few others that my fancy has settled   
   upon.
