A home for fans of 20th century shoujo, manga and anime aimed at young women.
Shojou of the day: Kanon - Chiho Saitou

Just because it's Father's Day in Australia...
Kanon follows the story of a young girl in Mongolia with brilliant talent as a violinist. She comes becomes the protegee of a young composer, who helps her on her international quest to find her unknown father. Along the way, she enrols in a music academy under a famous composer who also helps her on her quest.
There is romance, drama, angst, delicate art, and a hell of a twist which I will try not to spoil here. Not to be confused with the later harem work under the same name...
Won the Shogakukan Manga award for Shoujo manga in 1997.
