 There's a Yaohan in Chicargo too!?!? That supermarket is all over the 
world! I know that's there's some in Japan, Hong Kong (the headquarters 
just recently moved there from Japan, I guess due to tax problem... I 
think the Japanese people would know what I'm talking about...), and one 
in New Jeresy. I wonder if there's more... By the way, I'm not a Shojo 
manga specialist, but the most major shojo manga here in Japan is 
"Ribbon". I might recomend it that you try it, if you're really into 
Shojo stuff... (Also, isn't it expensive to subscribe to any comics there 
in the US? I used to pay 25 dollars for afternoon when I was there. Now I 
only pay 500 yen; about 5 dollars...)
