Product Description
The author himself parodies the masterpiece shojo manga, "The Rose of Versailles"! The beautiful characters Oscar, André, Marie Antoinette, and Fersen are transformed into adorable, three-dimensional characters, delivering a barrage of gags. This complete edition compiles the first and second volumes of the "The Rose of Versailles Kids" paperback edition, a compilation of the popular serialization in the Asahi Shimbun Saturday special edition [be], into one A5-sized volume. In addition to the full-color four-panel comics, the book also includes a long interview with Ikeda, a conversation with Moto Hagio and Toshie Kihara, and a reprint of Fumi Yoshinaga's "The Rose of Versailles" essay from the catalogue of the 2017 "Riyoko Ikeda 50th Anniversary Exhibition - With The Rose of Versailles" (sponsored by Asahi Shimbun). By learning about the historical context in which the original "The Rose of Versailles" was created, along with the four-panel comics, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the world and characters of the work. The cover illustration is a new work by Ikeda.
