Midori Days Vol. 01
Japan’s best-selling manga and basis for the anime is now available in English by popular demand!
The premise for this romantic comedy is sweet, hilarious, and just a little bit bizarre!
Seiji Sawamura is the toughest seventeen-year-old in town, feared by all for his fighting prowess and his deadly “devil’s right hand.” But at heart, Seiji is a softly, and all he wants is an end to his seventeen-year history of being a lonely single guy. Unfortunately, his tough-guy reputation only serves to decrease his popularity with the ladies.
Then one day, Seiji wakes up to discover his “devil’s right hand” has turned into…a miniature gal named Midori! Strangely enough, Midori is a real girl who is just as surprised as Seiji to find out she has now become literally Seiji’s right hand! It turns out Midori has always had a crush on Seiji, and her desperate wish to be connected to him has somehow come true…maybe all too true!
