Just like to say thanks for introducing these books (and Asano in general) to me. What a Wonderful World! I thought was especially great because it just hits so many chords on a personal level. Certain stories moreso than others but the general theme throughout the book of being in a situation that's less than ideal but deciding to soldier on is something I, and most definitely a lot of people, can really relate to. The "title track" especially is probably the best example of this. Asasno's able to write situations and characters in such a way that even when the situations can get a little fantastical, everything is still relatable and still strikes close to home.

Viz sent me a copy of both volumes, and now I think I need to get to them really soon. Ooh, I’m excited to read this one.
