Angelic Layer Review 1 - Manga

When you hear of people playing with dolls, they may still have that old Barbie doll or their action figure that will not give up. Reading Angelic Layer this give a whole new reason for playing with dolls.
When misaki came to Tokyo to live with her aunt, she just discovered a new game called angelic layer. Astonish about the game, he proceeds to buy a doll called an angel. Confused about purchasing this new toy, she met a man in a lab coat named icchan. She went home and creates her new doll named hikaru and joined the national tournament.
This manga consisted of seven volumes and is good for all ages. I enjoyed every frame from beginning to end. This was created by Clamp, a group of ladies that created such mangas as x/1999, Cardcaptor Sakura, Magic Knight Rayearth and Chobits.
The characters was drawn to some detail in the story was fun to read. I never had so much fun reading these books and to enjoy it this much. I just can’t wait to see the video DVD. The animation from the box cover I seen looked like the character design from Cardcaptor Sakura. For Your information, Hikaru, Misaki’s angel is named after a character from Magic Knight Rayearth.
The story is funny, witty and easy to maneuver through the plot line. The only disappointed thing to me was the shortness of the story. This could have gone and made even more volumes, maybe about an extra five episodes.
