Stories and Art by Fuyumi Soryo and Ai Yazawa. The critically acclaimed Smile is the first all-shojo anthology in America! This issue: Mars (by Fuyumi Soryo): Swallowed by the buzz of the city streets, Rei and Kira hit the town to escape the stress of school fights and the lurking Harumi. Rei's peace of mind is short-lived, however, when the secret of his dead twin brother and a glimpse of a young man's suicide take him over the edge and into a dark realm of hurtful memories. Kira wants to reach out, but Rei's pain is chaining him to his past that Kira is only beginning to understand. Plus: Paradise Kiss (by Ai Yazawa): Yukari seals her crush for head designer George with an incredible kiss, but she suspects that glam George's true love might actually be his precious cell phone. And though he blows off their dinner date to obsess over the fashion show design, George makes good and tempts Yukari into joyrides and, yes, more kissing. But when Yukari's lies spark the wrath of her suspicious parents, it's time to decide once and for all between prep school boredom and Paradise Kiss stardom. Magazine, B&W. Cover price $4.99.
