Title: Maria-sama ga Miteru / Marimite / Maria-sama is Watching / Maria Watches Over Us Author: Konno Oyuki Illustrator: Hibiki Reine Genres: Comedy, Drama, School Life, Yuri Translation: [Baka-Tsuki](https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Maria-sama_ga_Miteru) --- > Maria-sama ga Miteru's story revolves around the students of the Lillian Catholic school for girls, and can be considered character-driven, focusing on interactions between the characters rather than any sort of ongoing plot or goal to attain. At Lillian Girls' School, there is a tradition known as the sœur system (sœur being French for "sister"), in which a second, or third-year student, the grande sœur ("big sister"), will give her rosary to a junior student, the petite sœur ("little sister"), and promise to look after them and guide them. --- Surprisingly no one ever dumped a full collection of this series here on Nyaa, except [this](https://nyaa.si/view/757318) which however for some reason is missing random volumes in the middle. I didn't make any of these, they are from jln and the baka-tsuki forums. I may make my own versions in epub in the future when I'm bothered to do a good deal of non-automatable editing. **SS - Answer** is the translation of the short story from an artbook. Should be read at least after volume 18 (by date of publishing). If you're wondering why some volumes can no longer be found on Baka-Tsuki, like I did, it's because apparently one of the translators wanted all his content to be removed from the main page.
