Space magic is a concept that has fascinated people for centuries. It is the idea that certain individuals possess extraordinary powers that allow them to manipulate and control the forces of the universe. These individuals, known as space magicians, are often portrayed as being able to harness the power of the stars, planets, and other celestial bodies to perform incredible feats. The concept of space magic has been popularized in various forms of media, including books, movies, and video games. In these stories, space magicians are often depicted as having the ability to teleport, create illusions, manipulate gravity, and even control time itself. Their powers are often linked to their connection with the cosmos and their understanding of the laws of the universe.
For what it's worth, I found the material in this book spottily amusing but mostly bland, meandering, and self-referential in a way that has become a cliche in Japanese humor comics. The art I like; it's fairly minimalist and traditionally shojo , with lots of flowers and so forth, and as always I love the use of sound effects and text off to the side to suggest asides. I'd prefer it had been used in the service of a more substantial story, though!
The stories have such premises as Squirtle wanting Almond to teach him how to be manly ; a snowcone eating contest to win Hazel s soul back from Articuno; a rivalry for Almond s heart between Hazel and Dr. There are a couple of bonus stories as well, plus an account of Tsukirino s attempts to become a Pokemon master, and a brief encounter with the classic Pokemon characters Ash, Misty, and Brock stuck in this crazy universe.

NOTE: This book contains issues #1-#4 of Magical Pokemon Journey vol. 2.
SYNOPSIS:
This book contains a series of chapters (more like short stories) that combine the Pokemon world with that of Tsukirino's characters from her shojo (girls') manga: Hazel, who is in love with the oblivious boy Almond. The conceit is that Hazel is collecting Pokemon for "Grandpa," a mysterious oldster who has promised to make her a love potion with which to capture Almond. The stories have such premises as Squirtle wanting Almond to teach him how to be "manly"; a snowcone eating contest to win Hazel's soul back from Articuno; a rivalry for Almond's heart between Hazel and Dr. Coconut, the inept potion-making genius; dealing with a bunch of Pokemon who have gotten drunk on apple cider; the quest to reach the Tree of Strength on the top of Tree Mountain, undertaken by a handful of Pokemon along with the sickly boy Peanut and his aggressive Charmander; and a lovesick Arbok, desperately attracted to Wigglytuff but too shy to even say hi to it. There are a couple of bonus stories as well, plus an account of Tsukirino's attempts to become a Pokemon master, and a brief encounter with the classic Pokemon characters (Ash, Misty, and Brock) stuck in this crazy universe.
EVALUATION:
I doubt that anything I could say about this title would change anyone's mind; this is one of those critic-proof books that will appeal to the usual crowd regardless of quality. Also, I haven't read any Pokemon books prior to this one--I admit it, I've been resisting them, though I've seen my share of the cartoons--so I don't know how it stacks up to the regular ones in the series. (The promo material on the back claims that this is "one of the most off-beat Pokemon adventures you will ever read!" Well, OK; it doesn't fit my definition of off-beat, but I guess within the relaxed standards for Pokemon books it does.) And I don't have any background with Tsukirino's characters, so I can't judge how well they fit here.
For what it's worth, I found the material in this book spottily amusing but mostly bland, meandering, and self-referential in a way that has become a cliche in Japanese humor comics. The art I like; it's fairly minimalist and traditionally shojo , with lots of flowers and so forth, and as always I love the use of sound effects and text off to the side to suggest asides. I'd prefer it had been used in the service of a more substantial story, though!
Of course, kids will go crazy for this book; it should have particular appeal for girls, since the "cute" quotient is extremely high. Thus, it is recommended for kids and for library collections where Pokemon collectors congregate.

Here's what I've managed to find:
Through their connection with the Force, they can perform incredible acts, such as telekinesis, mind control, and precognition. In addition to the Force, there are many other examples of space magic in popular culture. For instance, the Marvel Cinematic Universe features characters like Doctor Strange, who is a master of the mystic arts and can manipulate time and reality. Similarly, characters in the Harry Potter series, such as Harry Potter and Hermione Granger, are able to perform spells and enchantments that defy the laws of physics. While space magic is purely a fictional concept, it captures the imagination and fascination of people across the globe. The idea of having the power to control the forces of the universe is both thrilling and awe-inspiring. It allows us to imagine what it would be like to have superhuman abilities and explore the unknown depths of the cosmos. In conclusion, space magic is a concept that has captured the imagination of people for centuries. It allows us to explore the idea of harnessing the powers of the universe and performing incredible feats. While space magic is purely fictional, it continues to inspire and entertain audiences around the world..
