Allgemeines zur Serie: Time Stranger Kyoko ist eine liebevoll gezeichnete und gestaltete 3bändige Serie von Arina Tanemura um die Prinzessin der Erdnation im 30. Jahrhundert.
Band 3: Ein würdiger und wirklich toller Abschluss der kleinen Reihe. Tanemuras Stil gefällt mir bei TSK mit am besten. Klar und verspielt zur gleichen Zeit, mit Liebe zum Detail - aber nicht überladen. Das Ende der Geschichte ist wunderschön und vor allem der Brief regt sehr zum Nachdenken an. Die Charaktere sind einem alle...more

Kyoko has found 11 out of the 12 telepaths, but where is the last one? As she tries to find the last telepath, more problems begin to arise. Will Kyoko ever be able to find the last telepath? And what about Kyoko’s and Sakataki’s feelings for each other?

Side Story 1: Leave it to Chocola: It’s Chocola’s birthday, and she’s throwing a party. However, when the King doesn’t show up, she runs away to Witzig’s gang. When she remembers how the King saved her, will she go back home?

Bonus: Comic Strips: A lot of 4 panel comic strips about the characters, with the last one being a penchi de shakin (something that this manga-ka does to share something personal with us) and freetalk section. ;)

Bonus: Chocola VS Iyo! A Surprising Battle: When the King and Chocola are playing hide and seek, Chocola meets up with Iyo. Together, they show off their skills and even fool the King…

Bonus: Behind the Scenes: Arina and Ryo (both manga-kas) their version on how Chocola VS Iyo! A Surprising Battle came to be.

There might be a few slight spoilers, nothing really major. ;)

The drawings and artwork still look wonderful, so I’ll go on to the plot. ;) It goes from finding only 4 strangers to having 11 found, but I don’t really mind missing the detail for those strangers. :D Everything becomes much more interesting in this volume, and you finally get to see the truth behind Kyoko, Cane-chan, and Ui. ;) And you get to see Chronos; and I love his character design and personality. Another thing I like is Ui’s personality — it is so amusing. :) Also, you get to see Sakataki become more dominant — and you get to see a kissing scene. And the ending feels satisfying and complete. :)

Now, for VIZ’s part. :| They did an average job on it. The art touch-up was still pretty good — nothing really noticeable popped out. VIZ also did okay on the SFX translations and placement of text. ;) However, they had a little problem with the general translation. Or, someone didn’t put the text in the right bubbles. On the page where all the Strangers are, they kind of mixed up the boys. It is supposed to be Leaf Stranger Youju (has leaves in the panel), Wind Stranger Fuuma (has the 140 cm in the panel) , Snow Stranger Setsuna (the guy with the dead looking eyes), Fire Stranger Rin (girl with her tongue sticking out), Wind Stranger Fuuma (panel with the bird and feathers), and then Dark Stranger Yami (cat girl panel). Why am I saying that? Because if you look on the next page, the person with the bird is called Toba. Then in the comic strips, the silent guy (dead eyes) is called Setsuna and the short guy (who is blowing up skirts) is called Fuuma.

Overall, the story and everything on the manga-ka part was great. However, I’m not too happy that VIZ made such a mistake on that translation.(less)

This was pretty good as far as manga in this genre go, a cute and funny adventure/love story. I really like Tanemura's artwork, it's very celluloid, round and cartoonish, but still somehow whimsical and lovely. The plot was pretty unique, lots of twists, but the pace was a bit too fast for my taste, and I'm pretty sure this story invented deus ex machina. Still, cute and light hearted, a very sweet love story with some rather comical action to pass the time.

Really started to get into this and then it ended so abruptly. I felt like this manga was so thrown together and rushed in the last volume, but I still loved it!

!!!!

Re-read. I really wish this manga hadn't ended so quickly - I wish a lo of the other characters had more time.
