Full Moon wo Sagashite Manga

Okay, think I'll put this in another post like a good blogger now ;)

I read through 3 volumes of Full Moon wo Sagashite tonight (through 5). It was really, really different from the anime. You could almost say completely different. I guess that's because it was made into an anime after only the 4th chapter had been published... But that makes it much more interesting, doesn't it? And it's sooo kawaii~. I love the illustrations of Mitsuki and Eichi together. I am an Eimi fan after all ;)

Btw, Tanemura-sensei seems to be a big fan of console gaming. In the little notes here and there she wrote about games like FF10, Pikmin, and Tales of Symphonia. There are even a few times where a Gamecube shows up in the manga. Madoka has one.. and one time Takuto (as a cat) gets really mad as he's playing something on it. I know how that feels ;)

So here's a few scans to look it. Pretty darn cute, ain't it? The tobira e (illustration at the beginning of a chapter) are definitely my favorites. Though some are.. how to put it.. more that not-quite-so-innocent cute type.
