About the series

In this 2007–2008 Tokyopop release, Ultra Maniac adapts the magical-girl manga into a five-issue English-language comics run. The story follows a shy middle-schooler whose life is turned upside down when a cheerful, clumsy trainee witch from another world transfers to her school and moves into her closet. Woven with light romance and everyday school comedy, the series was a staple of Tokyopop's shojo line during the mid-2000s manga boom. Its compact length makes it a quick, charming introduction to the genre for new readers.
