[Review] Glass no kamen

If you are a fan of shoujo manga, I think most of you will know the famous series “Glass Mask” (Glass no kamen) which is written by Suzue Miuchi. The manga was serialised in Hanato Yume from January 1976 and collected 49 volumes as of October. As you all know, most of the famous manga will be adapted into Anime and TV series. As the second best-selling shojo manga ever, Glass Mask become adopted firstly in 1984, however, the 2015 version is the best one if any of you would like to find the anime.


I still remember my first time to read Glass mask, I was around 13 years old, still in secondary school, Glass mask is one of my favorite manga ever, however by this time, the series have not finished yet, it was stop at volume 42 for a while.



 As I growth up, there are more thing that attract my attention, I was no longer reading manga anymore, but by accident, I found the anime version of Glass mask which is the 2005 version and automatically I can stop watching it. Even though I did read all of it but I still found myself in love with the anime version. As I growth up, the way I was thinking have been changed, the story is still the same as it was focus about Maya’s life, however, I think I can understand more lesson that I wouldn't do before. When I was young, I was only focus about how Maya performance is but now underneath every performance there are several of stories that waiting for you to discover. I found myself a lesson about a friendship between Maya and Ayumi, they compete with each other but inside their soul, I think they found themselves as each other soul mate.

If you were boring of those current school-love anime, or if you would like to find something more than just a romantic stories, I think Glass Mask will be your right choices!!!
