It has occurred to me that in all my postings about such silliness as Itsudatte My Santa and Green Green and other titles that I’ve had a passing interest in, I’ve neglected to mention prominently one that I’ve truely been enjoying for several months now. The fine folks at akatsukimanga.com have been translating Pretty Face, a title by Yasuhiro Kano.

Brief summary is: boy is horribly injured in an accident, but the doctors don’t know who he is to help reconstruct his face. They use a picture of the girl he has a crush on as representative of what he is to look like. Now he looks like that same girl’s twin. Stupid? Yes. Silly? Absolutely. Overflowing with cheap sexual humor possibilities? You betcha. Worth a try.
