One of the first mostly-comic anthologies I've read where I liked the prose parts as much as the comics. Normally I find they throw off the flow of the anthology but each was so good that it didn't bother me at all. "The Magnificent Daji" and "The Doctor and the Curse" were probably two of my favorite pieces in the entire book. A strong mix of comics as well comic.

Really neat anthology. The art is consistently excellent, and in many different styles. The stories themselves can be a bit hit or miss, and some wrap up a bit too quickly (and with the same sort of "twist" at the end), but overall it's a cute collection.

I don't think I enjoyed this *quite* as much as the first, but omg I can't wait for the 3rd one. The prose stories don't interest me as much, but I loved SO MANY of the comic stories. And the artwork is faaaabulous.
