Yotsuba&!

Yotsuba&! (Japanese: よつばと!, Hepburn: Yotsuba to!) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kiyohiko Azuma. It has been serialized since January 2003 in the monthly magazine Dengeki Daioh by ASCII Media Works, formerly MediaWorks, and has since been collected into sixteen tankōbon volumes. It follows the daily life of a young girl named Yotsuba Koiwai as she learns about the world around her, guided by her adoptive father, their neighbors, and their friends. Several characters in Yotsuba&! were previously featured in a one-shot manga by Azuma called "Try! Try! Try!" The phrase Yotsuba to means "Yotsuba and," which is reflected in the chapter titles, most of which take the form "Yotsuba and [something]."

The manga was licensed for English-language distribution by ADV Manga, which released five volumes between 2005 and 2007. Volume six was originally set to release in February 2008, but was indefinitely delayed. At New York Comic Con 2009, Yen Press announced that it had acquired the North American license for the series; it reprinted the first five volumes with new translations along with volume six in September 2009, and is continuing with later volumes.

The manga has received widespread acclaim from critics and audiences, with praise directed towards Azuma's art, writing, and the development of the titular character. The series has earned multiple awards and nominations.
