Customer Reviews

THIS is from the same people who did Cardcaptor Sakura?
The reason I ask is because, while Cardcaptor Sakura (even the origonal, uncut Japanese version) seemed to be more innocent, this seems to be boderline hentai. A semi-erotic spoof of Lewis Carrol's ALICE stories, this also shares a very slight theme with the NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET movies. (Teenager is plauged with unwanted dreams everytime she goes to sleep.) Anyway, the story: Myuki is a sweet, innocent highschool girl who lately has been having troublesome dreams whenever she goes to sleep where she is molested by various people (ALL of whom are female, by the way). There are seven chapters, each of which are pretty short and feature it's own dream. There's Myuki-Chan In Wonderland & Through The Looking Glass, the two stories that are direct parodies of the Lewis Carrol books and which made it into the anime, then there are five more tales that spoof other things (the movie BARBARELLA, waitressing jobs, the Japanese game Mah-jong, video games and Clamp's own manga/anime X) and which never made it into the anime, so even if you've already seen the Myuki-Chan video tape or DVD, there's some new stuff here for you. Though short, it's fun to read while it lasts. Check it out.

It's CLAMP Padoring Themselves
Miyuki-chan in Wonderland was first ingraved into our brains via the OVA that ADV put out. Simply a target to male audiences (and to show how Madhouse (the animation company who made the OVA) and CLAMP work well together), it will offend some and it will be loved by some.

Now we get the orginal manga version. It included other stories that the OVA didn't mention, but the permis is still the same: Miyuki is a school girl who goes to various "lands" where she is ambushed by all-female casts who hit on her. From reading this, it's nothing more than CLAMP making references to other movies, books, ect and even themselves! Here's the lowdown:

Miyuki-chan in Wonderland/Look Glass Land--these two are obvious, so no need to go into explenation.

Miyuki-chan in TV Land--a simple padory of the old Barbarella movie.

Miyuki-chan in Part-Time Job Land--this makes fun of part-time workers and waitresses (anyone for a trip to Anne Miller?)

Miyuki-chan in Mah-Jongg Land--It takes the term "Strip Poker" to a whole new level!

Miyku-chan in Video Game Land--A padory of the entire Fantasy RPG genra, but also made me think of Record of the Lodoss War and even CLAMP poking fun of the Magic Knight Rayearth game for the Sega Saturn.

Miyuki-chan in X Land--CLAMP making fun of CLAMP! Take a guess at which manga they choose.

So, in conclusion, CLAMP proves that they are talented and can briidge from one genra to the next. While this the farthest they have gone, Chobits does play up on the peverted factor (but not as bad as Miyuki-chan). This is strictly for CLAMP fanatics only!

Wonderful!
Alright, it's not exactly the most innocent manga, and most certainly not the most dark manga. It's still pretty good, you can get it for a good price, and it's really funny. The art is beautiful, miyuki-chan has lots of cute clothes in the manga, and all the characters are hilarious. It has alot of colored pages, which are amazazingly beautiful. Then, at the end there is a special chapter Clamp wrote for the american version, and then after that glossy, colored pages with author notes and such with picture. For any clamp fan, or someone who just wants a really good one volume manga for there collection, i really think you should get it!
