Hime-chan no Ribon Colorful shōjo manga launches on Thursday

Shiho Komiyuno, the artist who adapted the Demashita! PowerPuff Girls Z anime into manga, has launched a remake of Megumi Mizusawa's classic Hime-chan's Ribbon (Hime-chan no Ribon) manga in the October issue of Shueisha's Ribon magazine on Thursday. In the original 1990-1994 manga, Princess Erika of the parallel-world Magic Kingdom gives a human tomboy named Himeko a magical ribbon that can transform her into any person she sees. Komiyuno's Hime-chan no Ribon Colorful remake takes the characters and background story and brings them into the 21st century.

Toei Animation adapted the original manga into a popular 61-episode television anime series from 1992 to 1993.
