‘Monster Tamer Girls’ is a 2 volume manga series. The style is a more shoujo than shonen focusing on the emotional states and relationships over action and situational conflicts, even though there are problem solving to be had. The theme and plot are both rather original. Mysterious monsters have appeared on earth. While their physical size has led to levels of destructions, many are also quite tame and merely seek to exist. The trick becomes how to communicate with them and to manage their existence, hence to tame them. It was discovered that some young ladies have the gift of song that can both sooth and communicate naturally. Thus, the Tamer Girls Committee is formed for both training and duties. The artwork is classic manga ‘cute’. The monsters are of all varieties from dinosaur-like or large animals to even a cone with eyes. They are also portrayed as being intuitive, protective, and with feelings as intelligent animals would. Being only two volumes and without using added text, the story is kept simple, not attempting to define this blended society thoroughly. I did enjoy what I consider to be important coming-of-age themes, especially for girls – discovering the strength in oneself, finding confidence, embracing their gift, and ultimately acting as mentors to others in the epilogue. It’s always pleasant to find a shoujo manga that is not about boy-crazy frustrations.
