Aho-Girl: A Clueless Girl

Equal parts cute, silly, and subversive, the four-panel comedy manga Ahogaru was a surprise hit in Japan. Fans of anarchic slice-of-life gag manga like Azumanga Daioh – these are the new laughs you’ve been waiting for! Yoshiko is a hopefully clueless high school girl. Her rock-paper-scissors strategy is “rock.” She somehow gets zeroes on multiple-choice tests. And she has an often-nearly-fatal weakness for bananas. Her devoted friends have no choice but to hang around and make sure nobody takes advantage of her. (Of course, the entertainment value might have something to do with it, too.) Cute characters, weird gags, and lots and lots of bananas!

CLOVER

The sci-fi classic from the creators of xxxHOLiC and Cardcaptor Sakura returns in a remastered, hardcover edition featuring the entire CLOVER series. One of CLAMP’s most ambitious works — part AKIRA, part Metropolis— CLOVER features nearly 500 pages of manga. Su was born into a bleak future, where the military keeps tight control over the few children born with magical abilities — known as “Clovers.” The Clovers are forcibly tattooed with a symbol that indicates their potential power, and Su is the only four-leaf Clover in the world. Kept locked away in isolation her whole life, Su longs to find happiness in the outside world. An agent named Kazuhiko appears to help grant Su’s wish, but he soon realizes there is more to the mysterious girl than meets the eye… CLAMP’s most daring science-fiction work, CLOVER’s art-deco cyberpunk aesthetic, is just as fresh and exciting today as twenty years ago. Featuring the entire story in a newly revised translation, remastered art and lettering, a striking cover, and over 20 pages of color art, this is a great collectible for CLAMP fans and the perfect way to get to know CLOVER for the first time.
