Girl Got Game
« on: August 23, 2007, 02:22:50 PM » by Fusiongt
 People often ask me, "Fus, do you have game?" I think to myself, "Should I lie to them?" Ultimately, I do not lie. I tell them, "No I don't have any game." After I tell them that they usually look dissapointed. That is, until today. I finally have realized what they were asking. They weren't asking if I had game, they were asking if I had Girl Got Game!Well I finally do! Yes! Wiki Synopsis of Girl Got Game: Girl Got Game (originally published in Japan as Power!!) is a manga by Shizuru Seino about a girl forced to pretend to be a boy. The manga (originally published in Japan by Kodansha) has been translated into English and is available in North America from TOKYOPOP, which completed the domestic translation of all 10 volumes in August 2005.
Kyo Aizawa is a girl whose father is crazy about basketball. His dream was to go as far as the NBA, but, because of an injury, he couldn't. So, when they moved, he enrolled his daughter Kyo in Seisyu High School, which was famous for two things — cute girl uniforms, and a fast and furious boys basketball team. When Kyo got her uniform, she was shocked to discover, not a cute girl uniform, but a guy's outfit. Only then does she discover her father's plan, to get her in Seisyu as a boy to play on their top-ranked basketball team!
The story, rather than being centered on basketball, is mainly about Kyo, and how she begins to like her male roommate Chiharu Eniwa. Though she struggles to keep her true gender a secret, Chiharu eventually discovers the truth and the two must find a way to maintain their relationship as members of the basketball team and roommates despite growing romantic feelings between the two of them.
While the story is not centered on basketball, the manga's English title is clearly connected to the Spike Lee film He Got Game.

Thanks for uploading this!! I always wanted to read Girl Got Game but it never seemed worth buying. ^^;; It isn't a bad story, minus the weird stories they have at the end of some volumes which annoys me, but I'm still happy I got to read it. Thanks again for posting it!! :-)

Yea I'm not a huge fan of the "weird stories at the end" either. Is it like the author gets bored and just does that? Most shoujo series have them, maybe it's tradition for authors to doodle and tack it on at the end heh

Seems interesting! :3 (Someone who likes basketball and the idea of girls sneaking around as boys x3)
RE: "Weird stories at the end" I kind of like that, but I'm weird too.
Y'know, when I first came to this site, (note my internet connection was über-slow then), I thought that using the manga viewer (with the different pages and plenty of ads) was a hassle, but now I've decided I'm very grateful for the SN Manga viewer, since it's such a hassle to open each file individually. Just thought I should say so~. ^^
Anddd..... Ty for another great series! <3

I can't believe you put this manga up! :] I started reading it a few years ago, and it's positively addictive! Any shoujo fan will definitely enjoy it! It's a real page turner. ^^

I really love how it ends! the best kind of ending. I got this at my library (which is how i get pretty much all of my books but i'm seeing the light of having my own books) but i'm a wacko who reads whatever i can get my hands on, regardless of order, this is a WAY COOL SERIES!
