Lucky Star Avatars

Lucky ☆ Star (らき☆すた, Raki ☆ Suta?) is a Japanese four-panel comic strip by Kagami Yoshimizu. The strip has been serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Comptiq magazine since January 2004.

Lucky ☆ Star's story portrays the lives of several school girls attending a Japanese high school with a very loose sense of humor. The setting is based on the city of Kasukabe in Saitama Prefecture.

The main character is Konata Izumi, an athletic and intelligent girl who, despite these attributes, is not in a sports club and has low grades. Her laziness at school is due to her love for anime and video games and lack of interest in anything else. The serialization began with the four main characters in their first year of high school: Konata Izumi, Kagami Hiiragi, Tsukasa Hiiragi, and Miyuki Takara. As the story progresses, they move on to their second and third years.
