Corrector Yui
Corrector Yui stars a young girl named Yui. Yui loves to dream,
especially of super heroes. Yui lives in the future, where it is very
technical, but Yui has a hard time using a computer. One day Yui
accidentally stumbles upon a creature in the computer (on the
internet now called com-net.) It's name is I.R. and it tells her she
is a corrector must be very talented with computers. I.R. tells Yui
she will now help him find the other correctors scattered across the
com-net as well as Professor Inukai. Yui is now a super hero,
fighting evil viruses inside the computer! And that's only the beginning...
Corrector Yui is a shoujo manga meant for a younger audience I
believe. It is very cute, and proves dreams can come true. There are
about two battles between Yui and the evil force in each book.
Though, no one gets badly hurt, as Yui wants to become friends with
the evil force. (Sound familiar?) In each book Yui finds another
Corrector and is one step closer to finding Pro. Inukai. I actually
did like this book. But it definitely targets a younger age group. |

It was created by Kia Asamiya and written and illustrated by Keiko
Okamoto. It has been published in English by TokyoPop. It's 5 volumes
long. An anime series has been made and is being published in English
by Viz.
Corrector Yui is okay for all ages. (Though, a younger age group may
enjoy it more in my opinion.)
