Originally the title of this week's What Manga's Been Up To was a little more risque, but in the end I decided Beating and Blowjobs was more appropriate. After all, look at the girl in the header pic. She just seems like the kind of gal you'd like to meet on the street, or out at the coffeehouse, or ... well, anywhere, really.

Anyway, you can find a few reader submissions in this week's selections (Thanks, Bob!) as well as our usual smattering of laughable panels. Tell us your favorites, and as always, send what you'd like us to include to colette@japanator.com and we'll make sure they make it into next week's feature!
