elfsSquee #2: Girl's Ride Chapter Three has been released by Lillicious. (You'll have to go to the listing page and download the individual ZIP files by hand.)
This is absolutely the cutest, sweetest, most likeable girl-girl manga I've read in a long time. The characters are wonderful and innocent, they're not presented automatically as wank material, it's very much a look-see into a pair of characters who would obviously not invite your otaku eyes into their bedroom and you should feel privileged to be allowed this much. Unless you have issues with homosexuality, this series is (so far) safe for adolescents and lunchtime reading at the office.
The art, too, is especially lovely: the artist has clearly studied western styles, and is reviving a lot of old-school manga hand-drawn cross-hatching and organic toning that's fallen out of favor, or at least the patience of mangaka, in the age of Photoshop. Highly recommended.
