Kaori Yuki (Angel Sanctuary, Godchild) will start a new manga series called Guignol Kyūtei Gakudan ("Puppet Imperial Court Orchestra") in the August issue (on sale on June 26) of Hakusensha's Hana to Yume magazine, which will be the feature for the issue. It will have a 54-page opening installment in it.

Plot Concept: Last month's magazine gives a brief description, pegging the new manga as "oratorio about demons and illusions, as performed by puppets." In the story, a town is threatened by puppets that attack humans, so the town summons a beautiful songstress named Ruchiru and her orchestra.
