Er, Yotsuba isn't a 4koma strip. Granted, I've only read the first five volumes or so, it's entirely possible Kiyohiko Azuma suddenly fixed his style in volume six, but I'd find that strange.

Everything else is spot on though.

Had to go back and open a volume to convince myself, but is appears you are correct, sir. It's been ages since Volume 5 came out, so it's been a while since I actually looked at Yotsuba. In my mind it had merged in style with Azumanga Daioh.

Dang, now I'm going to have to go back and reread the whole series...

By the way, I saw ages ago that the old publisher of the American version had dropped Yotsuba and Volume 6 would be picked up by Yen Press. Anyone else seen this?

Yes, that is correct, and it looks like they're even reprinting the first five volumes.

[color="YellowGreen"]Oh my goodness, yes! :grin: I really enjoy reading "Full Moon". The art is beautiful. I have a copy of Peach Fuzz, but haven't actually followed the series. (And I am unable to continue Full Moon past Volume 2 because the rest are only found on the Internet. =/)[/color]
