I love this Magic Angel Creamy Mami (魔法の天使クリィミーマミ) image from Akemi Takada. It’s such a unique look for the series.

Influences of shoujo

I like learning about the roots of shoujo manga and shoujo manga style, and I have just discovered something new in that realm. I was reading Macoto Takahashi's Paris-Tokyo (パリー東京, 1959; originally published in Shoujo magazine), and came across this double spread:

It says "Spring Gaiety by Margaret Tarrant - Copy by Makoto Takahashi" on bottom right. And here's the original illustration referenced:

Seeing an artist openly re-interpreting another artist in a shoujo manga at that, is really cool. I always read about how such and such artists influenced shoujo mangaka, but seeing such a concrete example is worth reading 84 names in an article.

You can take a look at some of Tarrant's works here.

Hagio Moto's Egg Stand (1984)

After seeing the Demian reference in this one shot, I knew I had to translate this. And with the help of my friends with good taste, CiceroCiceronis and shielshi, we present you a movie-like story by Hagio.

DDL MangaDex

This manga was published in Hagio's Houmonsha (訪問者, 1995) bunkoban volume.

Special thanks to Box Head Idiot, who gave me the chance to translate this beautiful story. I hope Hagio fans out there aren't missing their scanlations on MD!

PS. Egg stand received a stage play in 2017. You can read about it here:
