About the series
Masakazu Katsura’s Video Girl Ai, originally a Japanese manga, was adapted into a 15-issue English-language comic series by Viz Media from 2004 to 2006. The story follows a lonely high school student who discovers a mysterious video rental shop and a girl who steps out of the screen, blending romance, science fiction, and Katsura’s signature character-driven storytelling. This series stands as a key work from the early 2000s manga-to-comic translation boom, showcasing Katsura’s expressive art and his knack for mixing heartfelt emotion with quirky, supernatural premises.
