Rose of Versailles Kids Complete Edition

The author herself has parodied the masterpiece shojo manga "The Rose of Versailles"! The beautiful Oscar, André, Marie Antoinette, and Fersen are transformed into cute, chibi-style characters, delivering a barrage of gags. This complete edition combines the two-volume paperback edition of "Berubara Kids," which compiles the popular series from the Asahi Shimbun's Saturday supplement "be," into a single A5-sized volume. In addition to the full-color four-panel comics, it includes a long interview with Ms. Ikeda, a dialogue with Ms. Moto Hagio and Ms. Toshie Kihara, and a reprint of Ms. Fumi Yoshinaga's "Rose of Versailles Theory" from the catalog of the 2017 "Riyoko Ikeda 50th Anniversary Exhibition - Together with 'The Rose of Versailles'" (sponsored by the Asahi Shimbun). By learning about the historical context in which the original "The Rose of Versailles" was created, you can deepen your understanding of the world and characters of the work even further. The cover illustration is a new drawing by Ms. Ikeda.
