If you want to use it for your own, please e-mail me

is not to be used to make "scanlations"--it is 
accompanyment to the manga for English readers. 
It is also not to be sold for money and/or used for 
commercial use. Any corrections you can give me would 
help a whole lot.

[Realise that my Japanese sucks ass! I'm only in my 
first year, and I have to use two sites and my boyfriend
to get it all done even anything close to right. I 
generally guess at some things, and I probably have all the 
onomatopoeia (sound effects) fucked up. But you can 
get the jist, yup?]

[I own the tankouban, not the Nakayoshi chapters. 
So my page counts are the counts that are in my book. 
React accordingly.]

[Names are written Japanese style with the last name first. 
Since this is the order used in the manga, I keep it that way.]

Author's Honesty

Born on March 27th, she is an Aries and has Type O blood.

and their influence on personality. ]
Osaka is her hometown. 

In 1997, she was number 24 and a new Nakayoshi manga writer, 
winning an award for her work "Usagi no Furasu Hoshi" 
[Stars dropped by Rabbits]
and "Run Run" [I haven't a clue what that is!] 
(January 1998), her debut. 

Her masterpiece is "Super Doll Licca-chan" and

[Sleeping Beauty in the Strawberry Wood]
and the like. 

Her hobbies include cats, idling around, 
and wearing cute (and weird?) clothing.
