Azumanga Daioh: The Fan Fiction

Introduction

The summer between high school and college was a difficult time for the girls. For now, they were all grown up ( or still growing up in the case of Chiyo.) Regardless, these were no longer just girls, but now young women, hell bent on surviving their new and wild college lives. Though apart, they are still held together by an unbreakable bond of friendship. Each of the girls have moved on however in their lives. Tomo and Osaka are now roommates in a small dorm on the campus of Futayo University, an often attended college for those who weren't quite able to get it…together.

Yomi, as intelligent as she is, was able to crack her way into Tokyo University. Oddly enough, the other 2 universities she applied to were no where near as prestigious and yet didn't accept her. Perhaps it's just a case of bad luck, but no matter, for it shall be their loss. Kagura is attending a slightly more prestigious school than Futayo University, which is their friendly rivals of Keioso University. Her grades were of no help in getting her in, however her tremendous athletic prowess gave her that little extra edge to get her foot in the door.

Chiyo-chan, as everyone knows, had plans to travel to the United States in order to attend school, since it was not uncommon for gifted children to attend classes that were well above their age group. In fact, she was welcomed and given grants and scholarships for Miami University, in the beautiful state of Florida. She keeps in contact with everyone through email or some variety of instant messenger, and whenever school is out for any lengthy duration, she always makes sure to come back home and visit with everyone.

And last, but definitely not the least (and in fact the most, more appropriately) would be the famous Miss Sakaki. She had the talent to go pretty much where ever she wanted. She had the grades to make it about anywhere, and the athletic ability to close whatever gap was left from her grades. However, her ambition is perhaps what stopped her from going to some world famous university, and instead leads her to attend a small, but very good Veterinarian College. That is what she wants to do with herself after all. Her love for animals is uncanny, and will become another way she can meet new furry friends to give that love too. But it's never an easy road, especially if one falls in love with a new friend that doesn't have quite so much fur, and much more to say.

And so at last I welcome you to the next story in the lives of the cast and crew of Azumanga Daioh, where life apart doesn't have to feel so far away. However, new challenges are on the rise, and the girls must endure a great deal more, finding solace and companionship in old friends, new loves, and trips out to the summer beach house.
