Shotaro continues his search for Emine in the I.C. Prefecture. But a careless comment sends him on the run from an angry kappa. Meanwhile, Mana is eager to enter the Robot Fight Tournament - sponsored by the 'Happy Factory' - and get another commendation, but Yohei senses there's something far more sinister than the tournament going on at the Fear Factory . . . That doesn't stop him from building a powerful battle robot that's guaranteed to take home the prize. Just when Mana is confident of her victory, the Fear Robot itself steps into the arena - with NoFix the King of Spin at the helm!

Atsushi Ohkubo's debut manga series, B.ICHI, originally appeared in Square Enix's MONTHLY SHONEN GANGAN magazine. Upon completion of the series, his concept for SOUL EATER began as a series of shorts appearing in the same magazine and later became the long-running work that has earned him international renown. In 2011, he began working on a prequel series entitled SOUL EATER NOT!
Grade 5 Up—B.ichi aka "B.one" aka "Bone" is what gives Shotaro special kyokotsu powers, but in order to keep them he must do one good deed a day. He needs the help of his other Dokeshi friends, humans with advanced brain power, who must do one bad deed a day, and Mana Migo, a human girl who likes martial arts and fortune-telling. Together they must find Emine aka "Baize" aka "Eminem," who is in the I.C. Prefecture. Yohei Nanami, a normal boy with mechanical skills, joins the group on their journey, which becomes complicated when Tool, a Japanese water imp who lives in a garbage dump, takes offense and goes crazy, and the Dokeshi hunt, a secret government plan to wipe out the Dokeshi, is underway. Fans of Japanese adventure manga will like B.ichi. The black-and-white illustrations are dynamic but can seem unrelated to the text. Still, manga fans should enjoy it.—Lisa Gieskes, CA Johnson Preparatory Academy, Columbia, SC
