Tagged under Naoki Urasawa, Series.
Yawara Inokuma appears to be the average Japanese school girl, but
she's hiding a great secret - she's a judo prodigy, and her grandfather has trained her for as long as she can remember.
After foiling a robbery with her judo skills, Yawara gains fame and her career gets launched as the greatest judo player
in Japan. Yawara doesn't want all that - she wants nothing more than to find love and be pretty, and being a judo
champion gets in the way of her dreams. How can Yawara accept the path of international stardom and still get what she
wants? In her incredible journey in pursuit of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, she encounters new rivals, new friends, and
who she truly is.

Yawara! is a worthwhile series for anime fans of all walks of life. With elements of comedy, drama, action, slice-of-life, sports anime, and romance, it makes a person laugh, sigh, cry and cheer. It tends to be a tough sell, though, because of the lack of availability in most countries. It's interesting that it was advertised as a sister series to Ranma but became far more popular than that one in its own country... but we all know about the popularity of Ranma everywhere else. Yawara is a great story of one life that shouldn't be missed. If only somebody could be convinced of it. This series was not only an excellent look into the world of judo, but of Japanese culture as well. I've officially become a fan of Yawara.
