...Watase, typifies the style. Deftly combining action with melodrama, it tells of Miaka Yuki, a lazy student with exam nightmares. A strange library book allows her to visit ancient China where she meets a handsome but avaricious young warrior. Like most shojo the style of Fushigi Yugi includes lush costumes, impossibly beautiful boys and, yes, those big, saucer eyes and tiny, button noses. What new readers may be surprised at are the frequent shifts into goofball humor and the author asides -- both of which are manga tropes...

Pang, ambles around the lush, green grounds, extolling the virtues of one of the company's most successful products, NutriSmart fertilizer. NutriSmart is superefficient--a dose one-third the size of conventional chemical fertilizers provides the same crop yield--and because it's organic, it doesn't harm the environment.
