My first scan by one of my favorite artists. I'm aware that some of the scans aren't quite top-notch quality, but I did the best I could with my limited knowledge. Hope you enjoy!

Ah, this guy gets it. That hollow countenance as the self was robbed, showing no personal interest other than following the directive. The previous upload with the magical-girls, Majuu Jouka, was way too bloody happy and uninhibited. It wasn't like they were corrupted, more like they just became regular sluts.
Still, I wish it would be more. Just changing a dress is just a scratch, how about darkening the skin? Have the corruption gurgle like ooze at their orifices? Better faster stronger, right? Even though this is pretty good, gotta have more yo.
And yeah, that ear fuck.
@Shiranai I totally agree with you regarding the premise of Corruption, warping one's sense of self into the desired mentality of the very thing they tried to fight by narrowing the choices one has to make, making it seem attractive and alluring to abandon themselves in favor of their foes is indeed what makes me go giddy with this genre. But, that doesn't stop them from "choosing to go hollow", yeah? You can just as much claim that: "They chose to give up their humanity and bask in the directive of the collective", there's more than one way to spin corruption. I personally love it when characters CHOOSE to become mere drones, and this is one way to approach it. With that being said, the manga indeed kind of failed with the corruption here, since the first gal managed to "snap out of it", which indeed rendered the corruption process as mere "mind control". I never really got that in corruption, even Dina Rangers does that. They CHOOSE to abandon themselves, but they constantly snap back into their old selves. How does that even make sense.
@Solipsist - It's kind of funny, but it seems like you and I have practically opposite views on this. To me, those blank expressions seem like they're just mind controlled and not corrupted at all. If the source of the control were removed, they'd go right back to the way they were before. To me, corruption is the process of warping their thoughts until they choose to be servants of whatever evil they had previously been fighting. I don't really care much about physical changes - it's the change in their outlook that I like. It's how they're now willing to discard or destroy everything that mattered to them before for their own fleeting self interest.
