Midori Days

Midori Days (Japanese: 美鳥の日々, Hepburn: Midori no Hibi) is a Japanese manga series by Kazurou Inoue. It was published by Shogakukan in the magazine Weekly Shōnen Sunday from September 2002 to July 2004, with its chapters collected in eight tankōbon volumes. The manga was licensed in North America by Viz Media. The series follows Seiji Sawamura, who one day finds his right hand replaced with a girl named Midori Kasugano and his attempts to return her to her real body.

The series was adapted as a 13-episode anime television series produced by Pierrot, broadcast from April to June 2004. The anime series was licensed in North America by Media Blasters.

Seiji "Mad Dog" Sawamura is the toughest student in his high school. His grades are not very good because he fights more than he studies, but he tends to protect the weaker students from bullies. A few classmates idolize him; one (Midori Kasugano from a different school) shyly loves him from afar; but everybody else is just afraid of him, which has made it impossible for him to find a girlfriend. In desperation, he says to himself that he wants a girlfriend no matter who it is. He then notices a miniature Midori attached to where his right hand used to be. Because of this, the pair must learn how to adapt to this sudden and forced closeness.

Midori Days, written and illustrated by Kazurou Inoue, was serialized in Shogakukan's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Sunday from September 18, 2002, to July 21, 2004. The 85 individual chapters were collected into eight tankōbon volumes, published from January 18, 2003, to October 18, 2004.

The series was licensed in North America by Viz Media, in Singapore by Chuang Yi, and in Australia by Madman Entertainment.

An anime television series adaptation by Pierrot aired on tvk and other UHF stations from April 4 to June 27, 2004.
