Description
From Viz:
Momoko is a "Lolita" stranded in the boondocks of rural Ibaraki prefecture, although she'd much rather be living in the Palace of Versailles. Ichigo is an impulsive member of a girls-only biker gang who firmly believes in honor, loyalty, and fist fighting. Together this unlikeliest of duos strikes out on a journey to find a legendary embroiderer who might just be able to make their dreams come true.


Based on a 2002 light novel by TAKEMOTO Novala, which was also adapted into a live action movie in 2004.

nice!!!even though its short... by otakuness on June 11th, 2009, 2:38am

many other things could have happned if there were a couple of volumes more...

but as for what i read...i like the characters!!! ichigo and momoko and also raichi!!! they remind me of a fruit salad!!! <srawberry, peach and lychee...delish~>...the characters personality are lovable and everything is always hilarious...especially the "i will grab their balls" part and she really did!!!

but one thing...what happens to momoko and mr. isobe afterwards?? thats why i hate short stories...

but i also like the side story!!! the girl trying to be mature even though shes still childish...but i like the way that she left the guy!!!~

Nothing to write home about by Masura on March 4th, 2008, 9:12pm

I read the first chapter in Shojo Beat and the manga is defenitly not as good, but good in it's own right. Everything is out of order and Ichigo looks like a boy, but once you get past that part I'm sure it's good

Very Good! by astroasis on July 3rd, 2007, 10:30pm

I haven't read the novel or seen the movie, but this manga was pretty good in its own right! I really enjoyed it - and the side story was excellent, as well. I'd recommend it. Now I want to see that movie...
