I really REALLY recommend this manga for everyone of every age! It's really amazing in every way! The art is fantastic! The plot too and the characters... loveable~ <3.

I loved the story of the minish cap and especially I loved Vaati so much! He's my favorite character from the manga <3 cause even being the main villain, he learned how much he was wrong. This story is simply beautiful and makes you learn so much valuable things. So don't miss it! ^^
