Lala 10 and Ouran Chp 82 Spoilers

I finally have Lala 10! Yippee!  The freebies in this issue are a "Vampire Knight" memo pad and a "Natsume Yuujinchou" Nyanko-Sensei plushy keychain (it kind of big for a keychain, though).  As for the Ouran drama CD that was advertised, it is a mail order item that can be purchased for 1200-yen (about $12US).  There's actually a BUNCH Ouran merchandise advertised in this issue.  I guess "present" in Japanese is a euphemism for "merchandise.  Duly noted in my notebook so I remember from now on...

Speaking of that merchandise:

There's pins, an image CD, and a button-looking things among the things to buy.  I hope at least one of the many online stores will get some of this merchandise in stock so folks outside of Japan can buy some.

An now for the ranking of the favorite full color cover page illustrations! (click to see it large)

I wholeheartedly agree with the Alice cosplay coming in at #1.

And now lastly!  The Ouran 82 spoilers!  Here's the cover page:

Caption: "At this Moment, I feel we can go anywhere together...(heart)"
It's super cute!  Spoiler (highlight below if you must know!):

[Haruhi decides to go to the US and Tamaki knows about it already and encourages her to go]

No kissing, but there's lots of hand holding and "dawwwwww" moments.
The last chapter will be 52-pages and release in Japanese on September 24th.  I will include the chapter 83 previews with the chapter 82 release.

Ouran 82 Update

Update:  No Ouran freebies are included in Lala magazine :(.  Rather, there are merchandise offers in the magazines.  So far there's a set of stamps and the drama CD.  I will ask Akadot if they will be offering any of the Ouran goodies for sale.
----------------------

As I predicted the Lala 10 release date and delivery truck schedule will not align favorably.  As I result, indeed, I will not get the Ouran 82 raw until Wednesday.  I'm so bummed because I want to know how Ouran will end just as much as you all do.  Anyhow, this means I'm sticking to a release date of August 30 :(.  If you can't wait, I'm sure another version will be available well before the 30th.  Rest assured, though, I will be translating Ouran 82 and releasing it ASAP in all it's lovely glory ;p  Until then, please enjoy our other series and one-shots, and maybe, just maybe, I'll squeeze out a little treat before I get started on Ouran.
