Lucky Star (Japanese: らき☆すた, Hepburn: Raki☆Suta) is a Japanese four-panel comic strip manga series by Kagami Yoshimizu. It has been serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Comptiq magazine since January 2004. The story primarily focuses on the daily lives of four high school girls: Konata Izumi, Kagami Hiiragi, Tsukasa Hiiragi, and Miyuki Takara. Konata is an otaku who loves anime, manga, and video games, while Kagami is a diligent and responsible honor student, Tsukasa is a gentle and adorable girl, and Miyuki is an intelligent and somewhat airheaded young lady from a wealthy family. The series depicts their school lives and daily routines in a lighthearted and humorous way, frequently referencing popular culture, anime, manga, and video games. Lucky Star's manga gained immense popularity and was later adapted into various media forms, including an anime series, video games, and novels. The anime adaptation, produced by Kyoto Animation, aired in 2007 and was highly acclaimed. It is known for its unique style and depiction of otaku culture.
