Sugar Sugar Rune

Anno Moyoco

Born in Tokyo, 1971

 

Sugar Sugar Rune was serialized for elementary school girl students between 2003 and 2007. The work was made into a television anime series in the same year. The story is about two best friend witches Chocolat and Vanilla who become rivals in becoming the next Queen of the Magical World. The work is essentially a fantasy with the classic witch motif in shojo manga, but in it is the underlying message from the author to young girls that she must make the effort to become a sophisticated lady and face her own weaknesses. Visually, Sugar Sugar Rune ambitiously attempts to revive the decorative nature of shojo manga by giving decorative functions to the actual frames and with the heavy usage of the heart motif.
