Karakuri Odette 1 by Julietta Suzuki: B+
I reviewed the first volume of this charming and often poignant series about a curious android attending high school for Manga Recon. You can find that review here.
Karakuri Odette is published in English by TOKYOPOP. Only one of a total of six volumes has been released so far.

Thank you! Do you plan to review it for CSBG?

I doubt it…do you still review everything you read? I find I really can’t do that (otherwise I’d be afraid to start reading something knowing I’d “have” to review it!)

Yep, I still do. The big concession I’ve made lately is declaring that individual manga volumes do not require individual reviews. At this point I’m so used to it that it would be extremely strange not to discuss a book’s merits and flaws after I finished reading it.
