Shugo Chara Chan Volume 1 – Shugo Chara spins off a smaller, cuter series. Based on the popular tween title first published by Del Rey, this title features the three guardian characters of Amu Hinamori, Ran, Miki, and Suu. It is done in the 4-panel comics style and is full of super-deformed characters and lots of gags. Fans of the original Shugo Chara series will find a lot to enjoy in this new series, but non fans can enjoy it too.
