Reviews
"Every panel is a little gem. It's like being immersed in the sketchbook of a watercolor painter - even though the manga is in black and white... If you like Ghibli's animated films and the world of Final Fantasy, you'll probably be excited about Beyond the Clouds!" -Avoir Alire
"The same comfort level as a bedtime story, [or] the sort of chapter book or middle grade novel that often serves as a nightly read-aloud... A well-thought out setting, a plucky protagonist, and beautiful, soft art (to say nothing of gorgeous watercolor opening pages and cover)." -Anime News Network
