Torikoro? Tricolor?

[icey-nyo]

Anyone have any details about this? I've been seeing lots of images of the characters around, and I really like the art style... but other than that I dont know too much...

Here's what I do know: It's 4koma serialized in Manga Time Kirara... so I assume its a comedy of some sort.

Otherwise... anything you can tell me about it is very welcome (especially more images!)

Torikoro is a story about the Nanase family and 3 other girls, the Nanase family is made up of Nanase Yae (daughter) and　Nanase Sachie (mother). And living with them are two other girls that are the same age as Yae. One is named Aono Makishi and the other is Yujita Tatami. The three girls are in High Scool as a Sophmores. And at school they make a new friend named Niwatazumi Keiko. There is no actual plot but it is my favorite manga. It's called Torikoro tricolor-sisters+1girl, becuase Yae, Tatami, and Makishi are like sisters now, with different hair color (tricolor-sisters) and Keiko is the +1girl.

tri = trio and trio in JP is torio,　トリオ
torio + color = Torikoro, トリコロ

If you look at my sig the characters are in this order:
Keiko, Sachie, Makishi, Tatami, and Yae

Thanks :)

Actually, it was looking at your sig that I finally found out the name of it... I just had a bunch of pictures I picked up from 4chan and such...

Do you know of any place I could read some? I really like the art style, but since I am not living in Japan I don't really have the luxury of browsing through the books before I buy them... Basically I want to find out if I like it before I import it...

I can't help you on where you can read it but I have some scans that might help you choose. There are only 2 vols out and both of them are 118 pages. That's over 230 4-koma jokes. There are also an artbook and CD drama out. I am a big fan so I have every thing.
Hope you can read JP:

Wow! Thanks alot :) They're pretty good :O And the art is still just as good in B/W in the 4koma. Now I just have to find a place to get them...

Also, I saw the artbook for sale on a webstore... they said it comes with a bunch of stuff including an art CD, for about $40(CAN) +shipping. Heres the details of it: http://akadotretail.com/shop/shop_showbook.php?id=4832275135

It seems pretty expensive, but is that a good price for it? Or should I wait till I or a friend goes to Japan or something and then get a copy that way?

The artbook is awsome and the stuff that comes with it is a sticker, 2 postcards, a CD rom filled with wallpapers and a calander for the computer, and a Torikoro Vol 0 cover. I think you should wait untill a friend gets it, or if you have the money you should buy it.
