I've always been a moderate fan of Arina Tanemura's works - Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne was a pleasant romp while Full Moon o Sagoshite had me in tears with every volume. However, I approached the glossily covered Mistress Fortune with no small amount of trepidation; I've never known shoujo manga-ka like Tanemura to do well in the arena of one-shot manga. They either end up too short or without any focus and become a big mess by volume's end. Luckily, this particular manga does not fall into that trap. Which is not to say that Mistress Fortune has single-handedly overturned the genre of magical girls with superpowers in any big way, but it does make a lot of tired tropes enjoyable to read, which is a feat in itself in an era of Nanoha and Card Captor Sakura clones.
Amid Tanemura's typically gorgeous art, all decked out in shoujoesque tones and gradients without becoming overbearing, is a love story. A love story, of course, that happens to involve teenage psychics protecting the world from aliens (who actually seem pretty cute for the most part). Kisaki is a spirited enough protagonist, one who works hard and cares deeply about her partner while juggling her work and her school and her personal life. She also makes Mistress Fortune a blast to read; any other protagonist, anyone less cheerful and genki, would have absolutely killed the mood of the story. It also helps that the story itself has a lot of fun elements, like the odd little aliens and the inner workings of PSI, not to mention the entire California subplot which involves - well, I won't spoil you, but if you know who the editor of this particular manga is, you'll be doing a double take after the American PSI member is introduced. Go, Tanemura, go!
In general, Mistress Fortune is a lighthearted fun single volume of mahou shoujo manga; absolutely no risk in picking this one up. There's tons of romance and action and humor and magic between the covers; no reader will go disappointed. It's typical Tanemura - and that's no insult.
