Azumanga Daioh
Rated: for TEEN
Genres: Comedy, High school, Slice of Life
It's not manga, it's Azumanga (and it's smart, fun and totally addictive)! Created by the iconoclastic Kiyohiko Azuma (hence the name), Azumanga Daioh is strongly character driven, telling the story of a group of high-school girls and their hilarious daily tribulations. The pending 2004 release of the Azumanga Daioh anime (from ADV Films) already has anime excitement at a fever pitch! While fans wait, here's the manga that started it all. Strong cross-promotion with the upcoming ADV Films anime release. A hilarious high-school comedy: terrific characters with huge appeal to middle- and high-school age readers of both sexes! Strongly episodic four-panel designs make this an outstanding introduction to the manga artform for new readers. Published in authentic Japanese right-to-left format.
