« Review Roundup: Final Fantasy XIII, Successful or Boring?
Diva Lee Hyori get sexed up once again for GUESS »

Yuu Watase is commonly known as the Queen of Modern Shoujo Manga. She is one of the most appreciated mangakas (manga artists) of shoujo manga. She also does bishounen since she frequently uses pretty boy characters. She was born March 5, 1970 in Osaka, Japan. She won the Shogakukan Manga Award for shōjo for Ceres, Celestial Legend in 1998. She writes her own stories and draws her own characters. She is amazing at what she does. In Shojo Beat, she even did a long running segment on how to draw and create your own manga.

I have a deep love for Watase’s works since one of the first animes that I ever owned was Fushigi Yugi. I continued to read many of her shoujos, and most of them are definitely worth reading. I think even boys could end up liking them. I own Fushigi Yugi: Genbu Kaiden and Alice 19th. I also read Absolute Boyfriend from the Shojo Beat magazine before they went extinct. I also may have read Imadoki! during the wait at Barnes and Noble during the release of the seventh Harry Potter book. She is an amazing, amazing mangaka. I think everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, would enjoy her work!

Hmm, I thought I’d see Hana Kimi or Honey and Clover in the top 5. Those were pretty big.

I loved the movie Nana. Aoi Miyazaki is such a good actress. Too bad she didn’t play the role again in the second movie.

Hana Yori Dango! <3

She’s great, one of my favorite mangas is Zettai Kareshi *O*

I wanna read this one. I’ve seen the live-action drama and I thought it was funny.


I like Hitsugaya the most, despite the way they’ve been using him until now. I feel he’s supposed to be stronger than they put him out to be.

Also, Kenpachi is definitely a badass!


^i know right!
if only we were a millionaire XD

but this idea sounds awesome!


Mangas are great, wish i had enough money to buy more xD


I’ve read some of Skip Beat and thoroughly enjoyed it. Also, I watched the anime. I wish they can make a 2nd season.


A manga theme!

i love yuu watase! I have almost all her series that are licensed. She blends comedy and drama very well.


I read Absolute Boyfriend and Alice 19th and I loved both of them (though I never read the last Alice 19th, I just can’t find it at the library </3 I’ll probably end up reading it on the Internet). AB’s ending made me cry ;_; it was really good…

Yuu Watase is a veeeery good and talented mangaka ^0^


Nicee~
This sounds interesting! ;D


yay! i love mangas :D
