Other Works:

Several of Kikukawa's earliest works for girls appear to be romance or romantic comedy, although it is hard to get information about them.  These titles appear to be all published by Shueisha.  Chou yo Utsukushiku Mae!* (蝶よ美しく舞え!) 1-4, written by Junichiro Hara* (原淳一郎), Blue Jean no Aitsu* (ブルージンのあいつ), Mansion wa Oosawagi* (マンションは大さわぎ), Bara no Ki* (薔薇の樹), written by Kyouko Mizuki* (水木杏子), and Prince wa Anata dake! (プリンスはあなただけ!) were all put out under Margaret Comics (マーガレットコミックス).  Shiteiseki S107* (指定席S107), written by Yasuko Honma* (本麻耶寸子), and Ai no Duet* (愛の二重唱) 1-3, by Junichiro Hara,* both appeared under Margaret Rainbow Comics (マーガレット・レインボー・コミックス).  Shueisha also published one bunko-ban volume, Oikakete Hatsukoi* (おいかけて初恋), written by Yuki Kamijou* (上条由紀).

In addition to her girls’ comics, Kikukawa has created a considerable number of ladies’ comics.  Kodansha published Koibito Moyou* (恋人模様), Soshite Boku wa Kekkon ni Hashitta* (そして僕は結婚にはしった), Uwaki Virus Hassei Chuu* (浮気ビールス発生中), and Kuchibiru no Policy* (くちびるのポリシー) under Young Lady KC Deluxe (ヤングレディKCデラックス).  Kuchibiru no Policy* was released a second time under Me KC.

Other Kodansha volumes were released under Be Love KC:

Me KC titles include:

Two futher Kodansha releases appear to also be ladies' titles:  Juso* (呪詛) and Mandragora Musou:  Kaiki Shokubutsushi* (マンドラゴラ夢想  怪奇植物誌).

Kikukawa also contributed to two ladies' anthology series put out by Kodansha.  Her short work Fukou Jiman no Onna (不幸自慢の女) appeared in the first volume of Ai no Mystery Senshuu (愛のミステリー選集).  Other pieces by her appeared in the first, second, fifth, and seventh volumes of Mystery Kessakusen (ミステリー傑作選).
