Quote:

original manga portrayed vignettes in the everyday lives of a junior high school girl named Ayumi and several other junior high and high school girls.

I assume they mean short, but do they mean Azumanga short or style, or was it full chapters more in line with Yotsuba&!.

The only thing that even makes this remotely interesting is the slice of life tag line, which I haven't seen a good one in a while.

Oh, slice-of-life vignettes about high school girls?

Looks like I'll be watching something else this season besides K-ON! after all.

^ Kyou no Go no Ni, based on the earlier manga by Minami-ke creator Koharu Sakuraba, was kind of like that, except with boys in late elementary school rather than junior high or senior high.
