Mangaka Pink Hanamori~!!

Well I haven't posted anything about my (maybe) second favorite mangaka! Pink Hanamori!! 花森 ぴんく, Hanamori Pinku was born on November 5, 1977 in Shizuoka Japan. I love her art!!! It is overly cute and totally awesome!! I fell in love with her art right away!!! I really don't like many shojo styles sometimes but Hanamori-sensei's looks really intriguing, innocent and really really really really cute!!! ARGH! I really really want to try to draw like her.......I love the way she draws her guys.......they are totally hot~!!!



Her stories are pretty predictable but really cute. I'm a total sucker for her manga. She is most known for illustrating the manga Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch written by Michiko Yokote which was made into an anime. Did you know that she worked as an assistant for Kikuta Michiyo (Mamotte! Lollipop) for a time?



Anyways, I'm a total fan of Pink Hanamori. I've read all of her manga even oneshots! Should I also post a manga recommendation on them too? Maybe later.....

This manga is really cute!! I love it!! I think this my favorite manga illustrated by Pink Hanamori.......I just love the art!!!!! The colors, the boys, hair and eyes, nice, swift and beautiful lines.......I just love it!!! (Sorry....I'm getting too weird now) I was quite happy that they decided to re-create Tezuka Osamu's Ribon no Kishi (Ribbon Knight). I'm sorry but I can't stand to watch something really old....I'm sorry! I'm a total art person and I often like to judge the art. If I watched something from a long ago then I would go on a frenzy. So yeah.....^_^

Summary: (from mangafox.com) Hitomi Miku goes to live in a mysterious house where she meets Rauto, the young and sexy master of the house. There she discovers that the house is full of monsters! Rauto gives her a special necklace and she suddenly transforms and knocks out an evil monster who possesses a girl! What's going on? Becoming Rauto's maid and fiancé? "I'll knock out everyone's heart."

This manga is really funny and cute!!! The art at this point has gotten better, well not like it wasn't at the start but it really improved.......I'm just saying. But my only problem is that the story kinda goes a little fast but thats just me. Also the dang chapters aren't coming out faster!!! Dang it!!

You also have to check out Mermaid Melody!



Arigatou~!!

Fairy Navigator Runa and Mamotte! Lolipop

Another Manga Recommendation.........I have a different story with this one.....appartently it was a brithday present that I got today from my friend Jenny. My birthday was last month and she apparently lost it in her closet. She finally found it underneath a pile of old clothes. It was very very funny and I was happy that she found it! Before she lost it she had some trouble of trying to find me what manga to buy me at the bookstore. So she asked a group of people that looked gothic of what book to buy or that I might like or might not have (I know too many manga's and I don't have that many manga's) Its actually quite funny. She was worried that I have already read it (to tell you the truth I've heard it but never read it yet until today) or already had it (which I don't but now I do!) So thats my story of how I got to know Fairy Navigator Runa but I bet you don't really care so here is some information about it! ^0^

Title: Fairy Navigator Runa

Summary: An ophaned girl named Runa Rindo was left in front of a school with only a wooden box and a pendent when she was a baby. Now in the forth grade and strange things start to happen.

I personally think that this manga is very great! This manga is mainly aimed at younger girls because I can just tell that the art is shoujo meaning it is sorta bubbly and cute. I really want to get the second book now! The illustrations are done by Michiyo Kikuta who is also known for doing a manga called Mamotte! Lolipop. It has been turned into an anime and quite popular! I know it has its cheesy parts and yeah can be for younger audiences but I really love it!

One is named Zero and the other is named Ichii. They will protect her until the potion is complete. Apparently the potion takes 6 months to complete so in the end Zero and Ichii follow her around, at school and home.

I can't believe it finished!......Wait!!! There is a sequel!!! If you want to know it is called Madotte! Mamotte! Lolipop! by Michiyo Kikuta. I was soo happy when I found out there was a sequel! I'm sorry, I am a sucker for Shojo manga's......Why did Shojo beat have to stop being made?!? It was the best Shojo manga magazine ever!!! 

Arigatou!!
