Shiro Fujimoto's original illustrations are superb. Each character has personality and expression; each image is full of life, colour and interesting detail. The colours have the quality one associates with Japanese art - delicate, yet electric - and are sensitive to the changing moods of the story. Some of the scenes are gentle and moving, some powerful and dramatic, but all have the same fresh brilliance and are outstandingly beautiful.
