Published in Indonesia as I am Here! by PT Elex Media Komputindo
But before that —
Car trouble forces the Detective Boys to overnight at an old woman's home, joined by another trio likewise suffering car woes (it ran out of gas). This being Detektif Conan 56, one of the guests is murdered, the work of the legendary Mountain Witch — or so Mitsuhiko surmises.
Conan also delves into the murky past of transfer student Eisuke in this volume that opens with the Engagement Ring Case. (Why was Sato was wearing it?) [With additions from this Wiki article]
MÄR 14 by Anzai Nobuyuki
Elsewhere, a wait of seven months for MÄR pays off with volume 14's release. The penultimate tankou features the explosive Last Battle War Game that determines if peace will eventually reign in MÄR Heaven. Nanashi faces off with the Chess Pieces' third strongest and their strategic officer Peta, while Ginta takes on Knight Number 1, Phantom.

NEW TITLES: Presenting Dear Boys Act III and Clock Clock
With Dear Boys Act III, Yagami Hiroki's basketball series finally charges into the Best 4 round. Team Mizuho clashes once more with Narita Chuoh on the court, and with a one win, one loss score card, Mizuho will have to work hard to put away its old rival.
Elex's Dear Boys Act III action guarantee: Dijamin makin seruuu!
Yet another Shonen Star serial makes the leap into tankou: Clock Clock by Morita Takashi, the not-so earth-bound standalone that carries a loftier IDR 18,000/volume Level-standard price tag.
Fuwa Kou dreams of conquering the skies in his DIY aircraft. One day he meets Rebekka, a first-time space-and-time traveler, looking for her Sensei, Professor Einstein. Kou gets dragged along for the ride as Rebekka's bodyguard and where else would their first stop be but the past!
SERIES FINALES
They've always supported me; now, it's my turn to help them!
As I am Here! or Koko ni Iru yo! nears its close, Aya tries to wreck Sumino's relationship with Teru and Hinata, Sumino's two suns.
But Sumino doesn't blow up at her. (Can she even?) Instead, she uncovers the sadness in Aya's heart, making Aya realize... (that she should GET! the last volume to encounter her epiphany.)
This is a current Guilty Pleasure because Hikage skosh reminds me of Sawako from KimiTodo. Hinata doubles up as Kazehaya/Ayane and Teru is... Kurumi? (After volume 5, I'll prolly be hunting down Nakayoshi 72 for the Koko ni Iru yo! special.)
If my blurb for the final Change Guy (AKA Quantum Mistake per ADV Manga titling) is wrong, I apologize in advance. But you try translating a summary for a series you don't read... It's inference left, right, and center!
The secrets behind the establishment of the hell school are revealed! Kwon Shin's brother Kwon Song leads a troop of strongest fighters to get rid of the trash.
Can Kang Tuji and allies withstand the assault?

Chuang Yi has a summary of this volume, 「記憶の本」奪回作戦開始! (lit. The plan to retrieve the "Book of Memories" begins!) and I can't do any better, so borrowing it for here (thanks muchness):
The magic book that revealed Kurogane's memories to Syaoran is actually a copy of the original
Book of Memories— an immensely powerful book that was made from one of Sakura's feathers. The book is considered a national treasure and no one is allowed to look upon it, much less lay their hands on the pages! To retrieve the feather, Syaoran has to infiltrate the Central Library, steal the book and defeat the fearsome beasts that lurk between the shelves.
