    Regular Cover. Art and story byTomoko Tomoko Taniguchi. Tomoko Taniguchi, the popular artist of Call Me Princess, returns with her second series from CPM, continuing the Shojo (womens' and girls' comics) line begun last year. In Aquarium, a young girl named Naoka fails the competitive exam for the high school she wanted to attend. Her hobby has always been going to the aquarium to see the fish and dolphins, and she spends more time there to find solace after her disappointment. At the aquarium, she meets a boy, Haruki. At first he tries to befriend her, but she is not able to return his friendship because she is still saddened by her failure. If you have ever experienced disappointment and the fear of change that new love can bring, Aquarium will touch you like few other works. Tomoko Taniguchi's elegant style is at its most moving and expressive in this all-new series. Cover price $2.95.
