| Synopsis |
This is a doujinshi manga, and as such is quite typical of the kind of manga drawn, written and self-published by Japanese girls. However, it's published by a Japanese woman living in London, so the text is in English.

| Review |
It contains a nice colour frontispiece image , an amusing personal horror story, and an episode of Rumi's fantasy series about Himeko and Shion, and some personal notes from the author.
When I bought vol.9, I remarked to Rumi that Tangerine looked very "girly". I'm not sure she took that very well, (though I didn't mean it in a negative way) but it certainly sums up the feminine style of the magazine, from the artwork exampled below, the storylines and the characters. Male characters are sometimes dishy, some rather gay... The characters in the Himeko series are lively creations. |
