              Well it’s a tie between July 19 and July 26 so far :x
If it doesn’t change, then I’ll go with the later date July 26.

              @Belthazar or anyone, will you post something in Ruri’s homethread, or else I am blocked to post over there 
  (3 consecutive posts already)

              Updated the schedule in the first post 
 same as Volume 2, 9 chapters of 20 pages each, so we’ll just read one chapter per week. See you in a few days!

              Have I forgotten everything that happened last volume? I feel like Ruri and Maeda are closer than I remember, and Ruri and her mother are futher apart than I remember. (Or was she just being blunt with her mother because it was late and she was tired?)

              Time for another chapter of Ruri the perfectly normal schoolgirl with a perfectly normal, but increasingly complicated school life, except with Dragon horns. 
She’s gonna be school principal by the time this manga is finished.
