Punjab against their enemy Sikandar Shah." -- Summary from

elephants and hunt tigers. Crowned emperor of Hindustan at
the age of 13, he was mature enough to choose his friends
carefully. Enemies and dangerous courtiers, on the other
hand, were dispatched mercilessly. For his courage and

"Few foods inspire as much passion and partisanship as the
dish of noodles in broth known as 'ramen.' Hot or cold,
plain or miso, from fancy fusion creations to humble
roadside takeout, ramen is truly a beloved food, one that
can give rise to fierce loyalty or fiercer criticism (not
to mention the occasional fistfight). In this volume of
Oishinbo, Yamaoka and company inquire into the 'soul of
ramen,' from the flour used in the noodles to the chickens
used in the broth. And where there's ramen, there's gyoza:
little dumplings made with a variety of fillings and served
as a side dish. Will Yamaoka be able to create an
'ultimate' gyoza before Kaibara creates a 'supreme' one?"

Akira and the COOL ballet troupe perform, and everything
changes. Akira inspires her to pursue her dream and dance
again. Soon, her primary goal is to join the COOL ballet
troupe. She's never wanted anything more in her life!
There's only one problem: COOL is an all-male dance troupe,
and Aya is 100% female. But so what if she's missing a Y
chromosome? Aya's got spunk, skill and passion, and in the
end she hopes that her undying determination will help her
beat the odds." -- PN6790.J33 A83F601 2003

upcoming anniversary show, so Aya and Akira approach a
wealthy yet demanding businessman. He agrees to contribute
on one condition, but it's a condition that Aya doesn't
agree with. Will Akira put Aya's feelings first? Just when
Aya thinks she has things figured out, Akira announces he's
taking Diana back to London. Aya is slowly learning that
succeeding in the world of dance takes more than just

supposed to help mortals and they're definitely not
supposed to fall in love with them! But that's just what
happens when Rara enters high school, where a hot guy named
Retsu Aku calls her 'Gaba Kawa'! While demons gain power by
causing mischief, the opposite is also true--if Rara uses
any of her powers to help mortals, she'll immediately lose
that very power. If she loses enough power, she'll
disappear! Poor Rara. What's a 'Gaba Kawa' demon to do?" --
