She's loved them from a young age and has carried that love with her to her new life in the big city of Tokyo. There, she resides in Amamizukan, a safe-haven for girl geeks who regularly gush over a range of things from trains to Japanese dolls. However, a chance meeting at a pet shop has Tsukimi crossing paths with one of the things that the residents of Amamizukan have been desperately trying to avoid--a beautiful and fashionable woman But there's much more to this woman than her trendy clothes This odd encounter is only the beginning of a new and unexpected path for Tsukimi and her friends.
The show is hilarious and amazing, and the manga is even moreso. There are so many puns that got lost in translation of the show, but they're explained more fully in the manga. Solid laughs on nearly every page.
So cute!

I love the story line a must read for any manga lover! It details the lives of female otakus living in Tokyo as their prized home is being taken over to build a highrise hotel! Very funny and cheeky manga with a bit or drama.
