honestly for me, the manga classics dont disappoint. its really a good way to get young readers into the classics without forcing them to read through the dry prose of the era

I have been a big fan of Anne of Green Gables for years. This adaptation solidified by love for Anne as a main character in new ways. The illustrations make Anne relevant and accessible to young audiences today. If you are an educator who is looking for ways to engage young readers who need visual signifiers of progress or are intimidated by books with more words than they are used to, then this is a good alternative to get them hooked on reading,

Manga Classics: Anne of Green Gables is beautifully illustrated and tells the original story. This would be an excellent way to share a classic with reluctant readers.

Doing classics as a manga series is a fun idea. I thought I would be more into it but I just couldn't get into the story. The art style wasn't bad just hard to wrap my head around seeing the story this way

This is a review for the manga version of the graphic novel, Anne of green gables, written by L.M. Montgomery with illustrations by Crystal S Chan and Kuma Chan.

The story is the same, about the feisty orphan girl, Anne, who makes her way in an inhospitable environment with people disapproving her at every step. She has only a few admirers but she needs to stand up for herself each time she faces a set back.

This manga edition brings the story to life. You can speed read it faster than the written version. It faithfully captures the essence of the book and I love the art work. It would have been great in a coloured version but otherwise I had a great time reading.

I have always loved anything related to Anne of Green Gables so it was no surprise I would love this too. Loved the artwork and the character designs!

I need to read the classic in its classical format now, but I think this manga managed to capture its magic nonetheless (and I am saying this based on my love for the TV series adaptation, which I hope is pretty close to the original source material).

I laughed a lot, I teared up a bit, and I wanted more more more! A brilliant adaptation, a brilliant story. So sweet and heartwarming, although sad at times, but that only adds to its charm. It's realistic but at the same time hopeful and it really spreads that hope around.

I have liked the story of Anne of Green Gables since teenage years and yeah that was old, I mean it is a classic!

The manga adaption is adorable and I wished I had it in physical form...

Thank you NetGalley!

really think that these Manga's of classic stories are a really good way to bring these stories to life for a newer audience. The art and new spin on these short stories really put them in a new perspective as you can see what is going on in the story.

Lovely adaptation! The artwork was phenomenal and it depicted the classic story well. Will read more.

This was nice in a way, but I felt it did not capture the feeling of the original book.
I also found the drawings a bit lacking, especially the eyes did not work for me. I would also appreciate a bit more detail in the scenes

Absolutely loved this book. Matthew was my favourite, for sure. I’ve been really enjoying these manga classics.

So, this is exactly what it claims to be, it's a Manga version of Anne of Green Gables. There were zero twists or different takes on the story, it wasn't a retelling but a graphic version of the book. I feel like it did exactly what it was supposed to do, although I do wish the language was a little more close to the original story and not more contemporary it still was a fun Manga version of a classic book.

An adorable manga adaptation of a much beloved classic. Anne of Green Gables is one of my favorite stories and seeing it in manga form is so fun.
The style of this particular manga reminded me of the 70's Rankin/Bass cartoons. Its probably the exaggeration of the chin point that is similar along with the large eyes. It gave it all a whimsical look rather than some of the more shojo style mangas I usually read.
I particularly liked the additional notes in the back of the book. Seeing the house layout, character designs, and creator notes about what to focus on in the adaptation was like a fun treat to go along with an already wonderful read.
I would recommend this manga to anyone who is a fan of the original book but also to the cottagecore community looking for a cute read to adorn their shelves. This would make a great photo prompt that you can dive into and enjoy after posting to Instagram. My hope is that having manga classics in the world will draw manga fans over to read the stories the mangas were adapted from as well as enliven the classic readers themselves to see the stories in a new light and fall in love with them again.

Anne of Green Gables is my favorite classic book and this manga adaptation was flawless. Truly a great reading experience and stayed true to the original story.

Firstly, I would like to thank Manga Classics and Netgalley for the ARC.

The manga version of the popular classic, Anne of Green Gables is very promising, fun and engaging to the readers and it is the most acurate version to the original. The art is interesting and gives us a great visualization of this popular classic. The story follows anne, an orphan girl who is adopted by mistake into this good family at green gables and how her life progresses. She is a unique, fun and a bubbly girl who gets everyone around her to like her.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this manga and i recommend it to readers who find reading classics in the novel form hard to follow and not so engaging.

Anne of Green Gables was my favourite series growing up, and getting to enjoy the story in a new format was fantastic. Very engaging way for younger audiences to pick up this story to read.

This is another classic book that I haven’t read and after finishing the manga adaptation, I want to read the original book. This was entertaining, heart-warming and sad all mixed into one equation. I loved the illustrations and I loved all the characters, even the mean ones that added drama to the story.

A very cute, modern manga styled retelling of a classic work! Anne's character design was adorable, while staying true to her original description in the classic novel. This manga retelling revitalized a classic in a way that will entice modern readers who otherwise may have passed up such a wonderful story.

This manga adaptation is entirely faithful to the book. It doesn't tamper with the story nor does it skip out essential elements as many adaptations do. I really enjoyed reading this graphic version of the popular tale.

Most of the illustrations are gorgeous. Anna and Diana especially have been drawn in a picture-perfect manner, exactly as they are represented in the book.
