Time Stranger Kyoko, Vol. 1

...when you're reading manga! Time Stranger Kyoko is about Princess Kyoko, of the Earth Kingdom. Her identity is unknown to people outside of the palace. However, when it was her 16th birthday, she would have to appear before her people. She refuses, for she fears she would not have a normal school life if everyone found out she was princess. Kyoko also has two bodyguards, Jin Hizuki and Jin Sakataki, of the dragon clan. They protect her and such. Because Kyoko didn't want her identity revealed, her father, the king, asked her to awaken her younger twin sister, Ui. In order to do that, Kyoko must gather the 12 strangers from different clans. This series is completed in 3 volumes, pretty short, but good story. The characters have the same cuteness and such as in Tanemura-sensei's other works!
