REVIEW: Nichijou: My Ordinary Life (manga, vol. 9) by Keiichi Arawi, translated by Jenny McKeon

Nichijou is a high school comedy manga. I bought my copy of this volume new.

Review:

Mio meets Yuuko's celebrity lookalike, Double Cheeseburgirl. Mr. Takasaki freaks out about Ms. Sakurai seeing his pic of her as a high schooler and accidentally makes it look like he really has a crush on Ms. Nakamura. Nano and Mai get really into a book called Double Crops: A Textbook (which I later realized was written by Ms. Sakurai's father). Misato continues to have weird delusions of romance with Sasahara. Mio buys an over-priced cutting board from a weird vending machine. Also, Ms. Nakamura is now somehow living at the Shinonome Laboratory?

Yet another random and weird volume, with a lot of the weirdness somehow interconnected. So, basically a normal Nichijou volume.

It's been a while, but I think the one pen featured in a strip near the end of the volume is a reference to one of the teachers in Azumanga Daioh.

Extras:

A few full-color pages and a page about minor characters.
