Neighborhood Story #1

This first volume of Neighborhood Story introduces readers to Mikako Kouda, a fashion-obsessed high school student who dreams of becoming a manga artist. The story follows her romantic entanglements and creative ambitions, set against the backdrop of Tokyo's Harajuku district, as she navigates friendships and a love triangle with childhood friend Tsutomu and aspiring musician Hiroshi. This shojo classic from Ai Yazawa, creator of Nana, was originally serialized in the 1990s and is now collected in English for the first time by Viz Media.
