With so many great shojo manga out there, your connection to shojo may be truly personal and we want you to share.

Boo ya! The one that was shown with Fruits Basket was Gakuen Alice, a new Tokyopop manga coming in January 2008. I've really been anticipating it's license.

The first shojo I read was Ultra Maniac. I saw the first one in the young adults section. I thought the cover was cute so I started to read it. (the wrong way) but i got the hang of it. I loved it and after it I started reading Full Moon and Fruits Basket. All of them are awesome but Fruits Basket is my fav because it has so many characters to love.

I was just walked into Waldenbooks and saw Rave Master, and I was like, "Whoa! What's that!" Ever since than I've been obsessed with Anime. I have over 340 manga. I didn't really care for anime before that...

What got me started was inuyasha when I was little and was watching it on Cartoon Network. I never read the book because I didnt know where to look where I was living. The shojo that I am reading that also has me hooked is Fruit Basket & PeachGirl. By reading it I am able to get a good a good view on what love is by a different perspective then normal books. Currently I am trying to bring anime to life in my life I love the situations EVERYTHING! I would love to be part of anime movie or book or anything.

I got all hooked on anime when i started to watch Sailor Moon on T.V when i was just a toddler. My sister and i were hooked completely. When i became older i started to read Fruits Basket, Inuyasha, Yu-Gi-Yo, Bizenghast, Fishugi Yugi, Instant Teen, and many more. I have started to collect things from Fruits Basket and Inuyasha. I am even going to wear the Fruits Basket High School uniform for Halloween!!! lol

What got me started was Sailor Moon when I was little and was watching it on Cartoon Network. I never read the book for they didn't sell where I was living. The shojo that I am reading that also has me hooked is Fruit Basket. By reading it I am able to get a good a good view on what love is by a different perspective then normal books. Currently I am writing a story and by reading or watching shojo I am able to give my characters more life and put in love where its needed between the characters.

i'd have to say that it was sailor moon that got me interested and i'm really grateful to that, because if i hadn't watched sailor moon or any other anime, then i wouldn't be drawing shojo or writing it, so i'm thankful to any anime creater. Speciel thanks to all anime/shojo fans!!!

I started with planet ladder, but then I got hooked onTokyo mew mew and then Fruits basket and then Mermaid melody pichi pichi pitch( not liscensed by tokyopop, but even they must admit it is good) But before that, it was my love of anime that got me hooked on manga in the first place (Sailor moon 4ever!!) and that is why I'm a shojo freak!!!
