Welcome to the world of cinderella. a world populated by fairies, zombies and all maner of strange creatures and people.
the story is basicly the story cinderella that we all know just with a twist and a better morall,that is if you want your prince you gotta go out and get him not just sit around hoping for fairies. this cinderella is strong and knows she has to do everything herself if she is to survive after her father dies she must take over thier restarant buisness. but its o.k cause he comes back as a zombie and teaches here how to make the speacil sauce that brings in customers.
However he also brings his new girlfriend and her two daughters (also zombies)soo cinderella has a new stepmother and step sisters (you can see where this is going right?)
basiclly as the story progresses theres lots of laughs and cinderella falls in love with a zombie rock star known as Prince who she cant be near because she human and only zombies are allowed at Princes concerts (enter fairy god mother)
heh i dont really want to give the story away so read it yourself its an amazing book i would buy it just for the art cause it is that good......go buy it!!!
I was disappointed on opening the package to see how thin the book was. "Bah," thought I, "'tis but a few pages long!"
Then I opened it. The paper is really thin, which means it's desceptively long.
The art is gorgeous, full-colour throughout.
As well as the 107-page story itself, the book contains stickers (on the last page), a form for buying models of the characters, a 6-page interview with Junko Mizuno, a 13-page short story about one of the characters, a couple of other 2-page spreads, and a few fake ads that are relevant to the story. It's FULL colour - even the inside of the front and back covers.
This is the American version of the book, printed in Canada.
Inside the back cover, it says "This American edition of Cinderalla is a new version of the work as well as a translation. In addition to reversing the artwork herself, the artist also recoloured or in some cases redrew or redesigned the artwork. Finally, the paper stock of this graphic novel was especially selected by the artist to match the color and tone schemes to create a nostalgic "American comicbook" effect."
She outdid herself. There is the occasional unavoidable lefthanded grip, where you'd have to totally change the layout to get someone to be righthanded. But other than that, it's all but impossible to tell that the book was flipped. A huge difference from the wild visual inconsistencies in Gunsmith Cats, for instance.
To be really picky, though, there's a calendar on the wall in the short story, that has the number "12" unflipped :P Yeah, I know, that's way too picky.
I cannot overstate how overjoyed I am with this purchase. It was everything I expected from Viz' preview pages, and then about five times more.
As well as the tale of Cinderalla, the book includes some mock advertisements relating to the main story and three extra short stories ‘How Caroline became a glutton’, ‘Papa’s professional cooking’ and a storyboard for the princes video ‘of course we all know’, and if that wasn’t enough there is a lengthy interview with Mizuno talking about her influences and style and a sheet of stickers. This is a fantastic book that offers more than one story with brilliant artwork by an upcoming popular Japanese artist.
