Banana Fish, Vol. 1 by Akimi Yoshida

5.0

Am I reading this because my heart was broken watching the anime? I will not comment on that at this time. Am I hoping beyond hope that things will turn out happier in the manga somehow? Again, I will not comment on that at this time.

I think I'm used to a certain style when it comes to shojo manga, and Banana Fish defiantly is not that. And I love it! I love the dynamic between Ash and Eiji, and they don't even meet till halfway through the 1st volume. It also has some very funny humor considering the material the story covers.
