Official Press Release
San Jose, CA - June 26, 2003 ComicsOne has recently announced new
additions to their popular Onegai Teacher series. On store shelves this
fall, Onegai Teacher fans will be exited to find the Please Teacher
Anime Fanbook and Onegai Teacher translated novel.
First, the month of September heats up with the sultry full-sized Please
Teacher Anime Fanbook. This jewel is filled with many beautiful digital
images from the stellar anime series, as well as many gorgeous original
images and sketches only found in this special collection. This
particular compilation is complete with creator commentary and loads of
other extras. A must-have for any true anime fan! The "Onegai
Teacher" anime produced by Bandai was a best-selling animated video in
Japan. ComicsOne's own Onegai Teacher graphic novel shared similar
success here in the US as it spent many months as one of the top 50
graphic novels on the notarized Bookscan List.
Following the Fanbook, brings an engrossing literary treat. You've seen
the hit anime, and read the enthralling manga, but even still, you don't
know the full story behind 18-year old Kei and his ambiguous affair with
his homeroom teacher from another planet. What's missing? You can
only find out in the translated full-length novel adaptation of Onegai
Teacher from ComicsOne.
Onegai Teacher is a tale that appeals to both adolescents and adults
with its touching sensibility and laugh-out-loud comedy. The reader can
easily sympathize with each character's internal growth and social
bravery. "After all, most of us know how difficult it can be to express
one's feelings to the one you care for most" says ComicsOne's Marketing
Editor - Shawn Sanders.
