Isn't Rozen Maiden Tales(Shoujo no Tsukurikata) the sequel to Rozen Maiden. And it's not a one-shot, because there are already 4 chapters out for it. Just wondering.

Rozen Maiden Tales, aka Rozen Maiden II, tales 1-5, so far... is actually both an alternate future/post traumend series. It is actually carrying the story from future Jun's character point of view. The dolls in play are from both dimemsion/universe... but i can't tell more then that otherwise I'd ruin the story for others...it's worth the read though and the characters are familiar enough for those who've followed the original story in both anime and manga forms..preferably the original manga since the anime skipped a few details from what was actually in the manga...only if you are picky about details, if you only followed the anime, you will still know whats going on, but won't understand a few details, which you can dismiss,,,they actually aren't relevent to the story, but do build character understanding, and event details. Since "tale" mentions two things from the manga which weren't in the anime. 😳 😳
