	Pulp Film - Azumanga Daioh
		That would be the only way I could describe this truly quirky series that is a very refreshing change for the jaded anime fan tired of the usual gigantic robots and huge puddles of angst and for the anime newbie still letting it all soak in with a wide grin on her face.
		Azumanga Daioh follows six high school girls as well as three of their teachers from their first day of high school to their graduation, and highlights both their outrageous adventures and hi-jinks as well as their decidedly more normal activities, which still manage to elicit some seriously prolonged laughter.
		In the year Azumanga Daioh aired, we saw all the characters go from their first day of high school (which is three years in Japan, following three years of the equivalent of junior high) to their graduation.

	Review: Azumanga Daioh, by Bad Jew (Site not responding. Last check: )
		But Azumanga is different--it has no problem with having a 5-minute bit of Osaka dreaming about Chiyo-chan flying by means of her pig-tails across the screen, over and over again, saying each time "I'm 12 years old!" Of course, while this is funny the first time, it drags on when used repeatedly.
		Azumanga, written by Kiyohiko Azuma and the flagship product of ADV's new manga division, is more of a traditional newspaper comic than a dime store one.
		Azumanga is made up of four-panel jokes, each with a build-up in the first three panels and a punchline in the last.

	PointBlank: Anime Reviews - Azumanga Daioh
		Azumanga Daioh follows the lives of several high-school girls from their introduction into high-school as freshmen to their eventual graduation, as well as many events in between, such as adventures at Chiyo-chan's beach house, cultural festivals, as well as summer vacation.
		Azumanga Daioh is a bit of an older series, but thanks to an opportunity in the from of a private FTP, I was able to download most of the series in a day or so.
		Though Azumanga can appear to be generic, with it's setting and basic cast of characters, as well as childish with the animation style chosen, it is anything but that! It's one of the most hilariously funny animes I have seen since FLCL.

	anime.mikomi.org - Azumanga Daioh
		Azumanga Daioh I was warned in advance by other websites that despite all the praise it has gotten, Azumanga Daioh "would not be for everyone", might be a "love-it-or-hate-it" series, and might not appeal to those who do not feel particularly nostalgic about their days in high school.
		Azumanga Daioh Azumanga Daioh is a nice school comedy based of a bunch of high school girls and their fellow teachers who go through your everyday school life and adventures.
		All in all, Azumanga Daioh is a wildly funny and entertaining series with a tendency towards unpredictability and wierdness.

	Review
		Azumanga Daioh (Which translates to "Great King Azumanga" which is short for "Azuma's manga for Dengeki Daiou magazine") is a sometimes sickenly cute and funny series of 6 school girls and 2 of their teachers.
		Nope, Azumanga Daioh is simply the episodic view of the lives of rather normal (if silly) schoolgirls; it occaisionally takes a trip into the absurd or surreal (That yellow cat thing or Osaka's imagination...), but mostly keeps itself grounded in the reality and eventlessness of highschool life.
		Azumanga Daioh is simply a set of stories that peek into the lives of those 6 high school girls and their teachers on their 3 year journey through high school.

	Anime Tempy
		Azumanga Daioh is an anime that is radically different with all the typical anime shows out there.
		Though riddled with cultural references, Azumanga Daioh is a very character driven show, and fortunately for us all the characters are quite memorable and bound to put a smile on your face.
		Azumanga’s plot is entirely character driven; the situations themselves are simple everyday occurrences that under normal circumstances would probably fail to gain an audience’s interest.

	Azumanga Daioh Avatars
		Azumanga Daioh spans three years in which accounts of tests, culture festivals and athletic events are seen at the school.
		Azumanga Daioh generally follows everyday life but the series is occasionally marked by bursts of surrealism and absurdity, such as in an episode featuring the characters' New Year's dreams.
		Due to Azumanga Daioh's straightforward premise there are few outright changes between the manga and the anime, though some jokes simply could not be adapted to an animated format and were either changed significantly or excised completely.

		Azumanga Daioh is a comedy anime series based on the manga of the same name devised by Kiyohiko Azuma.
		Azumanga Daioh is a hard anime series to review as so many of the jokes and references are visual that trying to do them justice with only the written word is impossible.
		Azumanga Daioh is without a doubt one of the greatest anime series ever produced.

		Azumanga Daioh, or Azumanga for short, manages to sidestep many such problems, instead offering a comical romp through a school standing on the edge of insanity.
		Despite the small cast, each character in Azumanga is an interesting blend of pros and cons, bringing a fresh personality into the greater mix.
		As a whole, Azumanga is a comical spin through a chaotic high school group.

		Azumanga Daioh is a series whose plot is based around the characters in it.
		If I could explain it an anology, it would be this: Azumanga Diaoh is a cute little girl that you coldn't help but walk over and say hi to, but her hold over you isn't enough to keep you from straying away from her, toward a crowd of blossoming, young buxom school girls with...
		Azumanga Daioh is enjoyable, especially watching the bemused girls go about their lives, even if it isn't a genre I watch often.

	Azumanga Daioh - theOtaku.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Azumanga Daioh is a plotless slice-of-life comedy that does all this and more.
		Ever since it debuted on Japanese TV in spring 2002, this anime has been beloved by a diverse array of fans; it was among the first series popular enough to jump-start the digisubbing scene.
		Gentler in tone than such madcap comedies as Excel Saga and FLCL, Azumanga Daioh is a charming, quietly groundbreaking series that promises to outlast many of its peers.

		Azumanga Daioh's initial five episodes introduce all these characters and more through a series of short, lively but evenly paced vignettes dealing with such gripping issues as Ayuma's hiccups and Chiyo's unusual habit of making her own box lunch.
		Azumanga Daioh is a show that works without gimmicks, familiar tropes, or comfortable cliches.
		Apparently the individual segments of Azumanga Daioh first ran as four-minute filler bits, which were compiled into weekly episodes.

	AICN Anime-Azumanga Daioh, School Rumble and Paprika -- Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book ...
		Where Azumanga Daioh shines brighter than just about any other manga is that, like Azuma's Yotsubaand!, you can crack the book open to any page and find a moment of charming nostalgia that is sure to elevate your mood.
		Consequently, as simple and pleasant, and largely escapist as Azumanga Daioh is, unlike some of the problematic manga whose purpose is to offer a gently relaxing situation, this manga is not reductive or regressive.
		Azumanga Daioh was originally serialized in the anthology Dengeki Daioh,a periodical for seinen, older-male audiences.

		To sum up, Azumanga Daioh is, in my opinion, the greatest manga ever, and will remain so for some time.
		Azumanga Daioh was one of the first series released by the manga division of ADV - and did they do well.

		That is the main reason why I do not recommend Azumanga for younger children.
		Since it is mini-series of comic strips the story tends to off and then goes back to the main friendship between Miss Yukari and Miss Kurosawa and then slips back in the day to day high school drama.
		Overall, Azumanga reflects the needs of what it was like to be in high school once again.

	Azumanga Daioh
		The student body in Azumanga Daioh is one of its strongest assets.
		Also, it's important to note that quite a few of the jokes rely heavily upon knowledge of Japanese culture and society, but the show is still extremely enjoyable even if you are not well versed in it.
		Each character in Azumanga Daioh has such a diverse personality that everyone will have a favorite character that they love or just love to hate.

	PLAYBACK:stl - SEE THE LIGHT - Azumanga Daioh: The Omnibus (ADV Manga)
		Kiyohiko Azuma's Azumanga Daioh details the high school years of six girls, inseparable from their first-year homeroom to their graduation.
		Azumanga Daioh is presented almost entirely in the form of four-panel comic strips, so there is no real plot.
		At nearly seven hundred pages, this is a long book, but there is no need to barrel straight through, as the short stories within will stand on their own (and in fact, you can buy smaller volumes separately).

	Azumanga Daioh Animation Line Art Book Review by Rich (Webmaster)
		As a fan of Azumanga Daioh I was obviously quite interested when I came across an artbook of the series in Japan.
		I bought the book of course but was quite surprised at the content as it is very different from any other artbook I own.
		On these counts this book really falls down, there is no context for anything, just a wad of line drawings that would probably hold little interest for those unfamiliar with the series.
