Also known as Prince of Afterschool and The Prince of Tennis Tribute. This tribute never fails to make me giggle. :D ♥ The puns take some effort for me to understand, so this isn't a fast read for me. I've only made it through half of volume 1 so far. :3 But look, Karupin is so cute!

Here's the cover.

From just the cover, you can probably tell this is crack. Look at their expressions! Ryoma is totally going "mada mada dane" and Tezuka looks like he suspects a conspiracy.
I was reading this at the airport on my way back from AX. First thing I read was the back cover.
This manga already won me over. XD; Most of the manga is 4 koma panels, same style as this one. The very last one is a normal manga (not 4 panel).
The inside flap contains a pretty pic of Atobe who promises us a luxurious time.

When you open the book, you get a small pull out poster with the various teams. What a fun pic. :D

If you take off the cover, you get Shinji muttering at you.

Shinji: Heh, so you're the type who's curious about what the inside cover looks like once you take the cover off? Hmmmmm, were you surprised by this? That's the impression you give.
Shinji: Since you like to check places like this, you must have a lot of free time? What exactly am I to be able to surprise people who have a lot of free time. Ah ah, I don't like this...
If you turn the manga over, you get Taki on the back!

Taki: You even looked in such a place. Not bad.
I remember seeing scanlations for this up to Chapter 5, and then they stopped. This volume contains #1-17, plus a special chapter. I've only read up to #11 so far. :3 I'm already looking forward to the second volume though~...but I wonder if that'll take a year to come out. I'm very glad this is being published in tankoubon form. Otherwise I'd have to buy Jump Square. I never know what to do with those huge magazines since I don't throw them away.

A Colorless World Panel 1 Kamio: Shit, Ishida!! We're finally in color, but with these uniforms, it's like we haven't changed from our black and white days!? Ishida: Eh!? We're in color right now? I didn't know that! Panel 2 Shinji: Panicking now is too late. You can't do anything about it now. Kamio: Stupid Shinji! Why'd you wear your school uniform! Wear your normal clothes, the flashy ones!! Ishida: Fudoumine is too black and white!! Panel 3 Tachibana: What's everyone making a fuss over? Let's go practice? Ishida & Kamio: !! Panel 4 Kamio: Tachibana-san, you should have come out earlier!! Let everyone know that this 4 koma is in color!! Ishida: Please dye this colorless world with your color!! Tachibana: ? |
