My Thoughts on Yotsuba&
Recently, I purchased the first volume of Kiyohiko Azuma's Yotsuba&! If you read my last post, you might be under the impression that I did not like it. Good heavens, no! I really enjoyed it. I merely said it wasn't as good as AzuManga Daioh. My main gripe with Yotsuba& is that there is only one really unique character, the titular Yotsuba. All the others are characters one would expect in any other manga. AzuManga's characters were more diverse, from the wild Tomo to the quiet Sakaki. Their personalities bounced off of each other in a great and humorous way.
The graphics in Yotsuba& are just what you would expect in an Azuma manga. Burlesque facial expressions and stupid situations abound that just make you want to, literally, LOL. I plan to get the next volume with my next paycheck.
Peace out for now!

It was hilarious when Fuka was hanging out of the bathroom window, then Ayase came out and saw Yotsuba's dad trying to pull her out. That was classic
Plus Fuka is a freakin' KILLER ANGEL OF DEATH!!
