Hello random people of the Internet (and my teacher)!!!!!!!! Well I had to create a blog for a school project and this is it. Its focus manga reviews. To be more specific shoujo manga.
Here some information encase you are unfamiliar with the subject. You may notice shoujo is spelled shōjo for the title of my blog. Shōjo, shojo or shoujo all refer to the type of manga intended for girls who are 7-18 years of age. Due to the huge age gap, the content of shoujo can range from a child's picture book to a long novel. You must be careful what you read. For example, lets say twilight was originally a manga. Manga is like a comic book. That means parts of the book usually left to the imagination of the reader are pictured. Twilight. It could still be okay for a twelve year old to read but it could also easily be turned into a shoujo manga for 17 year olds depending on how those "certain scenes" are depicted. You may find a manga that means okay at first but it may become inappropriate as characters develop.
So that's the ins and outs of shoujo manga! My next post will review the "Mother of all Shoujo" Sailor Moon (pictured above ). You also may notice the picture of Vampire Knight (review coming soon), my current favorite on going manga. Until then, happy reading!
