Azumanga Daioh is one of those stories that took me back to my high school days, don't ask me how many years its been I don't want to remember. This is about a group of friends getting through high school. It is told in a very entertaining way and allows you take a look at life in different way. The art is great and is almost the same as the anime. There are many differences between the manga and anime but not so drastic that one takes away from the other.
