  • If you've read it:

    Did you like it?
    Who was your favorite character?
    Did you like the way it ended?
    Etc.

    If you haven't read it:


    Girl Got Game (I think it was originally "Power!" or something like that) is a 10 volume manga series.
    This can be found on the back of the first volume:

    "Some people will do anything to realize their dreams...even if it means disguising a girl as a boy so she can play on a famous boys' basketball team. If you don't believe it, just imagine how Kyo Aizawa feels--her dad's the one who cooked up this crazy scheme!

    Kyo's father was once a great basketball player who aspired to play for the NBA. Unfortunately, an injury ended his career before it even started. Despite his disappointment, he passed his love of the game--and his moves--to his daughter.

    Kyo wants to date a boy, not become one...and she's not happy about her father's kooky plan...until she meets the boy who is her rival on the court and her roommate in the dorms!"

yeah, its original name was Power. I think this series was all right, though it reminded me a bit TOO much of Hana Kimi, which I liked more. ^^

  • It had basketball in it but that wasn't really the main point of the manga.
    ^^

    I don't really compare manga to determine if it's good or not. If I like it, I like it. Actually, I like Hana Kimi more too but I still think this ones a good read.
    Also it's as long, making it easier to get through the entire series. I like the character's personalities too.

    Which one started first?
    o .O

heheh this is way up on my favorites list <3 i LOVE this manga. sure its similar to Hana Kimi (which i also love) but this one is more laugh out loud in the middle of the store funny.

humm i started buying this one freshers year of college and it was my stress-reliever when i had to study for tests and such. i'd study and then read it to have a few good laughs before going to bed. actually i do remember running to the bookstore in the rain, buying it and then sitting in a corner reading laughing so hard i was crying (and freaking out the other customers).

hehe i have the whole series and i take it down to read often, kyo is such a hoot. and i really like eniwa as well when hes freaking out in the second and 3rd volume. its so darn funny.

  • Yay!
    Another GGG fan~
    I have all 10 volumes as well.
    I never ran to get any in the rain. but I always bought it then read it before leaving the shopping center.
    I'd have to say I love Yura even though he's a bit crazy.
    And of course Aizawa and Eniwa.
    "Shorty" and "Porcupine head".
    :giggles and flips through volume 5 again:

I was thinking of reading it, but I don't like basketball or care for it much. BUT I LOVE HANA KIMI, so if it's similar, then I want to read it. XD !!

  • Well, it does have basketball in it but it's not extremely focused on it.
    Can't say there isn't much of it...

aye I'd have to agree, they don't really go much into the basketball. i mean they are always on the court or.. going on training trips.. or they are buying basketball stuff. but it isn't like they are always in the middle of the game having a torrid love affair on the side while dunking the ball and such ^^;;

and i suppose I'd have to say its much much goofier the Hana Kimi as well. i always end up laughing out loud no matter how many times i read it, where Hana Kimi is more of an "awwww how sweet" manga. I'd certainly recommend it if you like Hana Kimi though <3

mmm yar the parts where they are all on hallucinogens is funny.. or *snort* the last manga is lovely too. and i really like the mini stories she has in the books (so cute!)

I read it. Loved it!
I finished the series a long time ago, though. ><
So I can hardly remember the characters. D:
I think Kyo's coach, well it was her old classmate or something, came and almost revealed her identity. xD But of course, Eniwa already knew, so it didn't really matter.

i haven't read it but that sounds like a good storyline
i'm not a basketball fan but it doesn't sound like it matters too much to the story
is there a website to look at about it?

i read it, i like it, and it was so funny.
i finish the series quite long ago but i still remenber it, though not in detail but like yea.
i think the ending could at least be better but that ending is fine with me and it was so funny where at the end everyone follow her and try to stop her dad from taking her and stuff XD
though some of the part is weird cause like kyo, she have quite a pervert mind and that dude was naken in the jungle and like omg, put some pant on. that dude scary me a little and like i dont remenber what his name is, but oh well

I love it! I've read all volumes except one of them. (Forgot which ^^; ) It's great but the ending could've been better. Lol, I guess I was hoping something over pg-13 at that moment? :wink:
