Update: Added other ongoing Cherry serials

Dengeki Daisy © Motomi Kyousuke/Shogakukan
[Serialized in Betsucomi]
Published in Indonesia as Electric Daisy by Gramedia/m&c!
The Hyperion project to resurrect the Jack'O Frost virus is deep-sixed and the organization behind it dismantled. But Akira, still at large, remains a threat to Teru and Kurosaki. Meanwhile, the person supposedy privy to Kurosaki's "secret" also goes after Teru.
Whachuu gonna do, Tasuku? You look all grim and determined there on the much-awaited Electric Daisy 10 cover. :D
Electric Daisy volume 10 compiles Files 45 through 49: Test & Trial,
Can't Always Look Pretty,
Daisy Bell,
Rena's Fiancé
and Keep the Frustration in One's Bosom.
Ten Dengeki Daisy volumes have been published in Japan as of November 2011, which means m&c!'s version has caught up — even if only for a month. The Japanese volume 11 streets 26 March, and treats fangirls to six pack abs and the stunning sleeping face of Kurosaki!
—oh, OK, I'll let you enjoy volume 10 first :D
Images of You vol 4 of 4
By Goto Junpei
Matataki departs for Spain after confessing to Mirai. Mirai later finds out about the "future death photograph" and follows Matataki. Only one more day remains before the prophetic picture comes true...
Can Matataki and Mirai find happiness? The answer lies in the touching
(mengharukan,
sez m&c!) Images of You finale.
New m&c! titles
m&c! launches Canvas ~ Rainbow Sketch by Kodama Miki, the Shonen Ace manga adapt of the FC01 FANDC visual novel, Canvas 2 - Nijiiro no Sketch. Preview, if you need it, after the release list.
Mangazines: Cherry February 2012 Edition
The regular Cherry is back, but this issue isn't numbered 62 per expected. Instead, it's the February 2012 Edition,
and I don't think that's just to differentiate it from Cherry Love Special that streeted the day after Valentine's.
At any rate, numbered or not, for sure My Lovely Class Leader ♥ by Nishimura Tomoko (that I'm near certain is this issue's front cover) returns with a new installment—episode 38 ex-Gokujou!! Mechamote Iinchou volume 11—along with I am not a Maid! by Iwaoka Meme (Episode 12 from Maid ja Naimon! volume 3) and Yomogi Loves Money? by Arai Kiyoko (Episode 13 from Yomogi Mochi Yaketa? volume 3). Even if Dawn Aria by Akaishi Michiyo doesn't appear on the cover, I'm pretty sure that's still ongoing. Unless Akatsuki no Aria finished in Japan when I wasn't paying attention. Edit: It is, with Episode 39 from Akatsuki no Aria volume 11. [Continued...]

New m&c! titles: Canvas ~ Rainbow Sketch - continued
Kamikura Hiroki teaches at the Nadeshiko fine arts academy his cousin Elis Housen attends as a scholarship student. Elis is elated over the daily opportunity to be with Hiroki (they also live together). Until competition shows up in the form of one Kikyou Kiri, Hiroki's childhood friend.
Baka-Updates Manga points out in its Canvas 2 - Nijiiro no Sketch description that Kiri, a fellow Nadeshiko teacher, may know why—Angst alert!—Hiroki gave up his artist dreams and settled for teaching.
