This is the classic fairy tale turned on its head. In Cinderalla, Dad and the stepsisters are zombies, the family runs a yakitori restaurant, and the prince is so sick he's on a permanent IV support system. Junko Mizuno's work possesses a postfeminist consciousness, and the book's psychedelic tone is enhanced by the artist's playful, "grotesque-cute" color illustrations.

Utdrag ur boken:
Pappa: Cinderalla!
Cinderalla: Dad, you're late! [...] Who are these people?
Pappa: Cinderalla, this is Caroline. She'll be you new mother! And her daughters Akko and Aki will be your older sisters!
Akko: Hello!
Aki: Good evening...
Cinderalla: WHAAAAT!? You're going to get remarried!?
Pappa: You will let me, won't you?
Cinderalla: No way! It's too sudden! We've gotten along just fine together without anyone else! Look how strange their skin looks!
Pappa: Strange? I'm green too, y'know. Ever since your mom and I were divorced, I never had a girlfriend. I raised you on my own. Don't I deserve what I want now that I'm dead? [slänger sig på knä] PLEASE! LET ME!!
Kund#1: He's worked so hard!
Kund#2: Don't be so hard on him, Cinderalla!
Cinderalla: But-
Akko: I understand. I mean, who'd want a bunch of zombies joining their family?
Aki: We were alienated when we were alive too. So we're used to it! It's all right...
Akko: Goodbye- it was short but sweet!
Aki: Come on, ma.
Pappa: WAIT! HOLD ON!!
Kund#2: How horrible, Cinderalla.
Kund#1: I didn't know you could be so mean.
Cinderalla: OKAY THEN! Go ahead! Get married! See if I care!

Manga baserad på Askungen, där pappan, styvmodern och -systrarna är zombier. Det är visserligen en tjejserie, men det är så mycket exponering av kvinnokroppar att man undrar. Blandningen mellan sött och groteskt (som även är källan till den mesta humorn) finns i tex söta Cinderalla som istället för att lämna en sko efter sig tappar sitt ena öga. Lite värre blir det när systrarna drar ut sina...
