Othello (Manga)

[our-haven.livejournal.com]

Has anyone read the Othello manga series? It's basically about a shy, clumsy, sweet girl (Yaya) who happens to be multiple. She transforms (originally unbeknownst to her) into a fiesty, tough, hot girl named Nana. Nana helps her out, kicking serious butt whenever Yaya gets into trouble (which is often.) Nana's so unlike Yaya that, in the beginning of the series, people often don't even recognize them as being the same person.
So far, it seems damn good. We're having a lot of fun reading it.

...And it's available through the local library system here (Minneapolis,) which just makes it infinitely better.

...though there is one major difference that comes to mind: Nana is extremely protective of Yaya and often seems motivated by nothing more than the desire to keep Yaya from harm. January, on the other hand, seems a lot more selfish. When I mess up or I'm stupid or shit happens to me she usually just bitches me out and tells me how she would have handled it. She's not exactly nice most of the time, and she only rarely intervenes when I'm in trouble.

Some of us are like that too. They are learning to be nicer and more diplomatic.
