From Goodreads: Just in time for the 200th Anniversary, Manga Classics: Emma brings Jane Austen's classic tale of youthful folly and romantic exuberance to a modern audience with this beautiful, new manga adaptation. The impulsive match-making of Emma Woodhouse delivers both humor and heartache through the gorgeous artwork of manga-ka Po Tse (Manga Classics: Pride and Prejudice). - Manga Classics editions feature classic stories, faithfully adapted and illustrated in manga style, and available in both hardcover and softcover editions. Proudly presented by UDON Entertainment and Morpheus Publishing.My Thoughts:
- I LOVE LOVE LOVE this series!! I devoured this book! I couldn't get enough.
- The artwork is beautiful! I loved it. The character designs were great!
- This was a great adaptation from the original book. All the emotions and events were captured so perfectly.
- This used to be my favorite Austen book before I read Persuasion, but after reading this I think it climbed back up to tie as favorite again. I just love Mr. Knightley! I hope they adapt Persuasion into a manga. That would be AWESOME!
- I really enjoyed reading the notes at the end of the book. I loved reading about the challenges of adapting the story into a manga. I liked how they talked about Emma being a mystery story as well as a romance story. It was very interesting.
- I loved the character sketches/development pages between chapters. They were fun to look at.
- I loved this book! I highly recommend it to everyone, especially Austen fans!
