So much can be said about Azuma's Yotsuba, but I think this review nicely summarizes the highlights. It kind of gives a familiar feel every time they go out and explore the town/city.

And there wasn't an apparent and open fanservice in Azumanga? A few chapter designs with the characters were pretty "detailed", especially a few of Sakaki (not that she can help it). Not as much as in the anime, probably ...it's been a while.

I'm so happy that ADV started releasing this series again. It really is something special.[/i]

Some of these seinen/shonen magazines really puzzle me with what they choose to publish - and what sells - it just seems it would be hard to sell things like Manabi Straight and Yotsuba&! to that demographic in the west...

Not that it's a bad thing, I'm just curious. Ahh well, that's a riddle for another day...

Glad to see another Yotsuba& GN! Thanks for the review!

Great Review, I picked this this up in Japan back in 06- It worth the pictures even though I didn't understand a bally thing that was written. Roll on #6!

Hey reviewer, thanks for spoiling the ending!

It's like I say: just because someone's reading a review of a book, it doesn't mean they haven't already finished the book.
