Miracle Girls vs. Normal Girls
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Is there a difference....yeah kind of. For starters, the " Miracle Girls" are twin sisters, Toni who is very athletic, and Mika who is very smart. And also another thing. They have pyshic powers. They can read each others minds and when they are together they can teleport to different locations. So far they only use that power to get themselves to school on time. Well the story starts out with Mika and Toni switching identities, because Mika wants to win a running marathon(something like that) to impress the guy that she likes, but since she's not athletic she asks Toni to switch and act like her to win the race. In the meantime Toni grows a crush on Mika's enemy( they don't tell you why she doesn't like him in the first book) Basically the book goes on like this with Toni brooding over her new crush Jackson, I don't want to tell you the whole story but a little more does happen. It's not majorly suspensful or action packed, but it's cute and light reading and as the story continues it gets even better. Definately a entertaining manga. Enjoy!!!
A lovely series, it's a shame the translation got butchered

Mikage and Tomomi Matsunaga are teenage girls. Most descriptions will say that they are "normal" or "average". Not exactly. Mikage has a nack for blowing up things, and Tomomi is an excelent athlete. Not normal, but not unlike all other girls. The other thing that sets them apart is the fact that they have secret mental powers. And a snoopy science teacher determined to discover their secrets.When I first heard of this series, I wasn't sure that I'd like it. But when I managed to get ahold of a few fansubs, I fell in love with it. It's not a crime fighting or Clow capturing series. It's a teen love story with a paranormal twist. Very good.If the names "Mikage" and "Tomomi" don't ring a bell, it's because Mixx/Tokyopop publishing thinks that as an American, you're too stupid to handle foreign names and concepts. Mikage turned into "Mika", and Tomomi turned into "Toni". Because of this, I recomend buying the Japanese original, and hunting around online for a translation. It beats buying a poorly printed and edited translation. Did I mention that aside from reversing the art, they hype up the contrast, and destroy the fine toutches and subtleties of the original art as well? Don't buy the Mixx. It doesn't supply the story. And it doesn't supply the art. What does it supply then? [money] to the translation butchers, that's what.
Cutest Manga Ever!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This was the first book by this author I've read and now it's one of my favorites! Toni & Mika are totally different, but when they switch for sports day it gets so messed up. Toni is the jock and Mika's the brain, but with the help of some wigs, no one can tell them apart. She really gets out the character in everyone and keeps it the same instead of fiddling with it. If you're new to the world of Japanese Manga, this is a great place to start.
Really cute, funny, and romantic!

This story is really cute, funny, and romantic! Miracle Girls is a great thing to read. The story revolves around twins Toni, a tom-boy and older twin, and Mika, resident brain at her school. Mika and Toni go to different schools and, here's the twist that makes the story interesting, have psysic powers. In this book, we meet Toni and Mika and learn about their powers. They switch places so that Mika won't have to participate in Sports Day at her school. Toni falls in love with Mika's arch-rival, Jackson Neil. They are both on the same relay team along with the person that Mika seems to be in love with, Chris. All in all, this is a great story and I definately recommend it to anyone who is into books like Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura. I left out a lot of things that happened in the book as well, so you'll just have to read to find out!
