A friend just PMed me about this; that the original novel of Strawberry Panic! (a short story novel) which got serialized in Dengeki G's Magazine was never collected in a tankoubon >.< so I looked around just to be sure about this, and it seems that he's right (or at least I hope he's right or I'll be pretty angry :P ), the original short story novel was never collected in a tankoubon.
Sorry about this, I got that info from some site >.< which also linked to that cover (the image thats quoted in this post). The cover that I posted in the first post, is not the tankoubon of the original novel (it was never published in a tankoubon). Here it is (I have no idea what this is supposed to be): Quote:
And as I mentioned before; the original novel has ended, and now there is a new novel based on it (published under the seinen label Dengeki Bunko), and also a manga based on it thats serialized in the same magazine as the original novel (Dengeki G's Magazine).

I liked it! I agree that the character design is kind of bland. I'm glad to see I'm not the only girl watching this.
The ending credits were really odd... it looked like a really low budget music video. And the close up of those fake nails was gross. |

That was Mai and Ai? Had a feeling. Despite the character roles, didn't expect the seiyuu to have a near-kiss scene of their own!
Once again Nakahara Mai is voicing an emotional redhead with great romance potential despite the fact that she doesn't know which way's up most of the time. I don't know why, but it seems like almost every character voiced by her(except Maika from Magikano and Hazuki from Mouse) has hair some shade of red. And, like HiME, she's having to fend off the claims of ownership by Shimizu Ai's char. I remember hearing some time ago that Puni Puni Poemi was created to prove that Excel Saga wasn't really insane. I get the feeling that this one was made to prove that Maria-sama ga Miteru wasn't really yuri. Not that that's a bad thing. |

Regarding the overall increased yuri-level in recent seasons I'd guess that the causes are similar to those that caused the previous moe-boom. Studios notice the increased (fandom-related) spending power of otakus compared to the rest of the world and act accordingly. Currently, we seem to like yuri... |

People shouldn't be surprised to see more shounen yuri manga/novels and seinen yuri manga/novels getting animated in this year or the following years. Ahh how I wish to see the seinen yuri manga HEN getting a proper anime adaptation >.<

I wish to see a yuri anime with a good scenario like The Twelve Kingdoms and the romance between the girls is well developed too. Yes I dream a lot xD Well SIMOUN is not far of my dream ( a scenario like Last Exil maybe... wait and see ) |

I loved the ED. Ai-Mai ftw.
Catch their Strawberry Panic radio show here (links to shows week by week in the lower half of the page). Even if you can't understand what they're saying, just hearing that million-mile-an-hour soprano banter is amazing.

Why are people saying that this is like kannamiko? True, I only saw the series once or twice but...the only thing I know is the shoujo-ai. Does it have anything to do with the uber-popular girl going for the not-so-popular one?
The ED was very different for me, I had only seen animated ones before. I wasn't too fond of it until I found out who the girls were, I'm a bit new at all this so I didn't recognize them or their voices. |

Oniisama E, Maria-sama ga Miteru, My-Otome (just change upperclassman to a teacher), even Utena suits to this scheme here and there. I believe there are many other titles.

I don't mind a bit of trash in my anime diet, but I'm left hoping this series will get past the clichés and find its own style. At least it shows enough potential to justify watching more... EDIT: Btw, there are nine DVDs listed for this series so I guess it really is going to be 26 episodes.

Man, I can't WAIT to see the kind of crackheaded melodramatic plot they've cooked up for this... unless they're going to take the comedy route... maybe it'll be like Azumanga Shoujo-ai.
That would be unexpected, and has the potential for hilariosity, especially considering the art style. |
