SHADOW STAR: STARFLIGHT SC â B&W. (Mohiro Kitoh) While on vacation on a small island, young Shiina Tamai dives under the water near an old shrine and discovers an unearthly starfish-like creature. She nearly drowns but is rescued by the silent, wide-eyed little animal, who Shiina befriends and names Hoshimaru. To Shiinaâs surprise, the creature changes shape, lets Shiina stand on him, and the two fly off into the clouds. But what looks to be a young girlâs ultimate fantasy soon takes a darker turn as Shiina and Hoshimaru become entangled in a struggle between rival extraterrestrial factions. 192 pp.
