About the series
A five-issue manga series from Tokyopop, Kill Me, Kiss Me (2004–2005) follows a high school girl who finds herself entangled in a violent yakuza conflict after a chance encounter with a handsome but dangerous young gangster. The series blends romantic comedy with action, as its heroine must navigate both the chaos of organized crime and the complications of a budding relationship. Known for its energetic art and genre-mixing premise, it was a representative release from Tokyopop’s early-2000s push to bring shōjo manga with edgy, dramatic twists to English-language readers.
