A comedy manga series and the anime based on it, '''''Azumanga Daioh''''' is the rather disjointed and occasionally surreal story of six high school girls and several of their teachers. Being episodic to the point of resembling sketch comedy, and largely lacking serious conflict or drama, the show has little in the way of conventional storylines, preferring to set up and deliver the animation equivalent of several comic strips per episode. This is because the show is a remarkably faithful translation of the popular monthly [[Yonkoma]].▼

The title combines the author's name (Kiyohiko Azuma) with the word "manga" and the name of its original publisher (''Dengeki Daioh'' magazine) -- it can be read as the Japanese equivalent of an acronym for [[Shaped Like Itself|"Azuma's Comic Strip For Daioh Magazine"]] (''Dengeki Daioh'' being a magazine aimed mainly at [[Shonen|younger teenage boys]], the general theme of the strip was to poke gentle fun at the audience's female classmates -- "Man, teenage girls are ''weird''...").
