Absolutely delightful surprise!!! - Rated
When this arrived, I cursed myself. I'd made a mistake and ordered the wrong thing. Why the heck would *I* want to read cutesy stories about a class of schoolgirls???
Five minutes later I was laughing out loud and blessing whatever gods or goddesses of mischance had sent this wonderful book in my direction.
The format is a bit unlike the usual manga layout - mostly this book takes the form of a series of little 4-frame strips (Just like Peanuts). Initially I thought this was going to be much too limiting, but it really isn't. While most of the 4-panel strips are self-contained, they also sometimes flow together into longer overall stories.
Beyond any shadow of doubt, the most enjoyable and engaging manga I've yet read.
***It's now a few months since I wrote the review above - I've just come back to add that the book is even more enjoyable the second time around!! Oh, and you should also hunt out the DVD series, which I've now seen. Great fun!!***
bang for your buck.....certainly - Rated
azumanga daioh rates as my faveourite anime and manga of all time,and this omnibus has the entire collection of nutty antics in one book.
the book itself is huge,over 600 mpages long,and in large print.
good for anime fans,new or"hardcore",since the jokes have been translated as best as can be,with even a short summery of certain jokes at the back
a must to have in any collection,and for a good price.
do your self a favour and buy this now,you will get your moneys worth of laughs ion the first few pages alones.
