Arina Tanemura (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 3, 2006

A bittersweet tale of puppy love, tragedy, and aspirations of pop-star fame. A spark of hope ignites to a blaze in twelve-year-old Mitsuki Koyama's life when a comical pair of magical beings appears to prove to her that dreams really do come true.

Young Mitsuki loves singing and dreams of becoming a pop star. Unfortunately, a malignant tumor in her throat prevents her from pursuing her passion. However, her life turns around when two surprisingly fun-loving harbingers of death appear to grant Mitsuki a temporary reprieve from her illness and give her singing career a magical push start.

About the Author

Arina Tanemura began her manga career in 1996 at the early age of 18,

when her short stories debuted in Ribon magazine. Tanemura gained

notoriety with the 1997 publication of I-O-N, a high school romance with

a supernatural twist. From 1998 to 2000, she worked on the popular series

Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, about a young girl who is the reincarnation of

Joan of Arc, followed by Time Stranger Kyoko in 2000-2001 and Full

Moon o Sagashite in 2002. Despite Tanemura's intentions to draw in a style

that makes her stories difficult to animate, both Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne

and Full Moon o Sagashite have been adapted into TV series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The end of my favorite series, December 20, 2007

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S OVER!! THIS SERIES WAS BY FAR THE BEST I'VE EVER READ!! It was funny, then sad. It sent me through a rollercoaster of emotions. I laughed, I cried. It's so..difficult to express just how much I enjoyed this series. The characters are unforgettable. The ending is original and satisfying-there's an unexpected twist, it's really happy..yet sad D: *sigh* I really can't explain how wonderful the series was, so you'll have to read it yourself to find out.
*This series was EXTREMELY GOOD, but really sad too!! Books 3-7 had me crying throughout almost the whole things-but it was a good thing!! trust me (Although crying usually isn't associated with good, but really, it's great!!)

erm...well, in short-READ THIS SERIES!! IT IS THE BEST, I PROMISE, AND I'VE READ 'EM ALL :D
