Azumanga Daioh, Vol. 1 by Kiyohiko Azuma
5.0
I loved it to bits! The setting for the manga is as ordinary a topic as any: day-to-day adventures of a couple of schoolgirls and the teachers involved, but the magic lies in the amount of relatability and wackiness conveyed in 4-panel strips.
Some of the jokes were cultural, so it was a bit hard to understand them, but for the most part, I loved the interactions between the homeroom teacher and her students, and each girl's unique personality and own set of charms. The humor ranged from slapstick to subtle, but there were a lot of endearing and crazy moments as well.
All in all, it was a packed and entertaining volume!
