Manga Up! Global Adds The Duke's Daughter Drops Her Engagement and Facade Manga

posted on 2024-08-13 11:02 EDT by Alex Mateo

Neko Suzumori, Ryō Miyama debuted manga in March 2023

Square Enix's Manga UP! Global added author Neko Suzumori and artist Ryō Miyama's The Duke's Daughter Drops Her Engagement and Facade (Konyaku Haki Sareta Kōshaku Reijō wa Reijō no Kamen o Nugisuteru) manga on Wednesday.

The company describes the story:

After being publicly dumped by her fiancé, the Crown Prince Lombard, the duke's daughter Christiana appears unshaken. Despite being educated to be a refined noblewoman and the perfect queen, she has always harbored a different dream—to become Lombard's knight. Now, with the engagement off, she finally has the chance to pursue her true calling.

The manga debuted on Square Enix's Manga UP! in March 2023. Square Enix published the manga's second compiled book volume in November 2023, and it will release the third volume on September 6.

games

There’s room for improvement, but as a whole, this release feels like a win for both players and game preservation. ― Few fighting games have proven to have the staying power of the Marvel vs. Capcom series. And while it's easy to hear that and be reminded first and foremost of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (and for good reason), the popularity of the #FreeMVC2 movement is testament to how this applies to its ...

games

BAKERU is a fantastic game for kids and kids at heart. ― Late last year, BAKERU's initial Japanese release seemed to spark what could only be described as “pure, nostalgic joy” among those who played the 3D platformer. Particularly, a nostalgia for the Ganbare Goemon series and its Nintendo 64 installment, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon. Which makes a lot of sense when one considers that BAKERU's dev...

She's the ultimate wild card, a little kid who...
