It turns out that Yukari is a natural when it comes to modeling. In no time, her career takes off, and soon she's fielding offers from bigtime modeling agencies. But she soon discovers she needs her parents' consent before anyone can represent her. Yeah, like that's ever going to happen! When Yukari asks the love of her life, George, for some professional guidance, he gives her grief-not answers. Does this guy even know the meaning of love? Yukari is beginning to wonder if he's worth her time-or her devotion.

Moving forward...,

This review is from: Paradise Kiss, Book 3 (Paperback)
In this installment to Paradise Kiss the character of Yukari continues to grow and become her own person(YAY!). For the first time I've found myself disliking George. All the characters seem to be growing(except maybe Isabella, but even she(he) had some development in the second Volume).In this volume Yukari has decided to become a professional model and has goes all the way with George which leads to her moving in with him. Yukari must have her mother sign some papers in order for her to join the modeling agency however, so this leads to a dilema... Can she go home and will her mother accept her? I believe that though the fashion is still very prominent, that the story and characters are taking the forefront more now. Which is a good thing, because the characters are so good the story seems new and fresh, they seem real and not like just some cliche or something like that. Another great thing about that series is how it mocks traditional shoujo manga plots and characters, the characters are aware that their in a comic, and its funny. Yazawa somehow makes this work extremely well, it makes it more funny. :D Also, be awar there is a lot of sexual content in it. For conservatives like myself, be aware of that. But it is done tastefully, and hey you can always cover it if you don't like it. ;P So I suggest not giving this to those under 16yrs of age. God Bless & *enjoy* ~Amy

Love the storyline and the clothes,
By Nana (Cupertino, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paradise Kiss, Book 3 (Paperback)
I first read Paradise Kiss in the Japanese mag, Zipper. Since I don't know Japanese, I don't know what the story is all about but just admire the drawings( the clothes are just so awesome!). Now I have read the manga (finally!) and I think Ai Yazawa is quite stick to the reality that we need to face every day. Of course, she has magnified the small parts which makes the manga a lot funnier than we are in real life. But this does not make her manga plain. The clothes are so glamorous (u will wish to wear those out!) and detailed; and the characters are very different from one another. Trust me, you will like it! ( I bought some of her other mangas too!)

Third Volume of Paradise Kiss,
By Angel Cosmos "angelcosmos" (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paradise Kiss, Book 3 (Paperback)
I'm soo happy that Miwako's on the front cover! ^_^ She's one of my favourite characters in Paradise Kiss besides Isabella (hoping he'll be on the front of v.5 *v*). Anyways, in this volume lots of stuff happen. Yukari's relationship with George becomes more than kisses on the lips... it's more of all over her body. ^^; *SPOILER BEGINS* Yukari loses her virginity to George in Arashi's bed... hahaha Plus Yukari starts to become a professional model because she's got the whole 'package'! *SPOILER ENDS*
