Synopsis |
It's a story of junior high-school life. |
Review | The title refers to the colour of the school uniform (and, in typical Japanese punning fashion, probably other things as well.) As far as I know, there isn't any fantasy in it at all. The heroine, Kawai Yuuko, (shown with dark hair and ribbon) is a typical schoolgirl, but her friend Taka-chan (shown with fair hair, on right) is a more unruly sort. The story concerns school activities and, apparently, the stirrings of feminine interest towards various boys. [The fansub reveals that this is a fascinating and sensitively written story about teenagers. Subject matter includes the notorious 'menstruation' episode.] The heroine has the same first name as the mangaka; we can make what we will of that. |
