Where to Find the Manga
Unfortunately, there are currently
no English-translated versions available as far as I know.
If you can read Chinese, you can try looking for the (legal)
Taiwan-published version of the manga. With some luck, you
should be able to hunt them down in bookstores in Taiwan,
Hong Kong and the various Chinatowns. Better still, if you can
read Japanese, you can contact Shogakukan Inc., the
original publisher. If all else fails and you happen to
have a copy (Japanese/Chinese) while desperately looking for
help, I might be able to write up a translation for you too!
Where to Find the Related Stuff
Of course you know that some of these manga series were made
into TV drama in Japan (equivalent to the soap opera but much
more highly regarded), such as Tokyo Love Story and Les Camarades de Classe.
If you are a fan, like me, you will want to experience all
different forms of Fumi's creations.
There are also soundtracks from the TV series. I have one which
I like a lot, and I am hoping to put up some tracks on this page,
if space allows, somewhere in the future. The music seems to serve as powerful remenants of the story that you can experience
over and over again. I have also seen the animation of one of
the stories in New Days of Living Together. Maybe there are more. Enjoy!
