Editor's Note
Based on a popular Japanese comic strip, the sweetnatured anime television series AZUMANGA DAIOH chronicles the daily lives of teenaged schoolgirls with a zany dose of humor and a bevy of eccentric characters. Still as goofy as her students, English teacher Miss Yukari anchors the series with her juvenile mishaps and a long-running rivalry with gym teacher Miss Minamo. Yukari's students include the withdrawn Sakaki, bookish Koyomi, loudmouthed Tomo, athletic Kagura, and two quirky new transfer students: oddball outcast Ayumu and 10-year-old prodigy Chiyo. Through a series of relatively plotless vignettes spanning 26 episodes, AZUMANGA DAIOH follows these girls through three years of high school as they master the art of growing up--and dodge the lecherous advances of classics teacher Mr. Kimura. This collection presents the beloved anime series in its entirety.
