Title: Onegai Sensei (Please, Teacher)
Author:Taamo
ISBN# 978-4-09-131897-8
Flower Comics, 2008
Here is another title by Taamo, a mangaka I am starting to like a lot. Once again we have a cover with a distinct delicate style. The colors are light, and the white background makes the cover stand out on the shelf. And hey, with a title [...]
Title: Kimi wa Sakamichi no Tochuu de
Author:MAKINO Aki
ISBN# 978-4-08-856833-1
Ribon Mascot Comics, 2008
Okay, here is a more recent release. I almost passed this one up because the cover is so dark, and I found it difficult to see what was going on in it. This cover design bothers me a little bit because I keep picking [...]
Title: Kienai, Omoi
(Indelible, Feeling)
Author:YOSHIOKA Ririko
ISBN# 978-4-06-341513-1
Kodansha Comics Betsufure, 2007
This is another manga by the author of Kare wa Tomodachi, a series I am currently enjoying reading. I liked that series enough to go look for things by the same author, and this one doesn’t disappoint. I like the cover here — it reminds me of [...]
Title: Masaka to Omou Kedo
(I thought it wasn’t possible, but)
Author:MOMOI Izumi
ISBN# 4-08-848818-0
Margaret Comics, 1998
Hah! Ok, stepping back in time a little bit with an older manga again. This one is from 1998 though, so it isn’t THAT old, really. This is yet another one I purchased because it was on sale, and there right in [...]
Title: Hyoko Romantica
Author:HATTA Ayuko
ISBN# 978-4-08-846135-9
Margaret Comics, 2007
Ahhh! This series is so crazy-cute-adorable! I liked this book so much, I can’t believe I haven’t seen more mention of it anywhere, considering it is reasonably recent. This is a silly romantic comedy with a great tsundere hero and a ridiculous heroine. The art is super cute and [...]
Title: Isshoni Ofuro
(Bathing Together)
Author:Taamo
ISBN# 978-4-09-130855-9
Flower Comics, 2007
I have been picking up a lot of manga by this author, Taamo, recently. I really like her art style. It is very distinctive. I can tell right away when browsing the bookshelves if something is a Taamo series. The cover artwork is sort of light and delicate and [...]
Title: Yasuko to Kenji
(Yasuko and Kenji)
Author:Aruko
ISBN# 4-08-847885-1
Margaret Comics, 2005
Ah this is such a fun series! I decided to summarize Yasuko to Kenji because of a live action TV drama version of it that recently started airing, which I am enjoying very much. It reminded me that I do have the manga, and that I never [...]
Title: Silver
Author:SUETSUGU Yuki
ISBN# 4-06-341419-1
Kodansha Comics Betsufure, 2005
Here is a little sci-fi shoujo manga for you! This two-volume series caught my eye because of the covers. There seems to be a lot going on in them, and it took me a minute to really see and appreciate the cute couple that is featured in the center [...]
Title: Aishiteiru no yo Kyohei-san
Author:SUZUKI Miya
ISBN# 4-257-91803-9
Sun Comics, 1984
Hah! Here is yet another completely random series! I am breaking out some old school shoujo manga here, folks! Good luck trying to find it ^_^; Oh well, I am sorry I picked something so very obscure and untranslated, I couldn’t help it. You probably can’t tell [...]
