It depicts the everyday adventures of a young girl named [[Yotsuba Koiwai|Yotsuba]] as she learns about the world around her, guided by her adoptive father, their neighbors, and their friends. Several characters in ''Yotsuba&!'' were previously featured in a [[One-shot (comics)|one-shot]] manga by Azuma called "Try! Try!

Yotsuba makes a strong impression on the three daughters of the neighboring [[List of Yotsuba&! characters#Ayase household|Ayase family]], Asagi, Fuuka, and Ena, after Ena meets Yotsuba trying to find out how a swing works. Most of her daily activities and misadventures often originate from interactions with these characters and more, such as Asagi's friend Torako, known as [[Tiger]] (from Yotsuba, the kanji for ''Tora'' is the same kanji in ''tiger''). The series has no consistent plot continuity—the focus of the stories is Yotsuba's daily voyage of discovery. Many chapters take place on successive days (for details, see ''[[List of Yotsuba&! chapters]]''), so that the series follows, almost literally, the characters' [[Slice of life|daily lives]].<ref name="Mania-v4-timeframe">{{cite web | url=http://www.mania.com/yotsuba-vol-04_article_83459.html | title=Yotsuba&!

Try! Try!", in which Yotsuba's adoptive father Yousuke Koiwai, Ena, Fūka, and Asagi first appear.<ref name="Clayton1"/> Although some of these characters—including Yotsuba herself—are largely the same as in ''Yotsuba&!''; Fūka has a different character design, a more mischievous personality, and a different spelling of her given name (in "Try!

Azuma started writing ''Yotsuba&!'' a year after the conclusion of his previous manga, [[Azumanga Daioh|''Azumanga Daioh'']]. No crossovers between the two works occurred until the sixteenth volume of ''Yotsuba&!'' in 2025, which features a cameo appearance from ''Azumanga Daioh'' character Ayumu "Osaka" Kasuga, who is revealed to now be working as a P.E. teacher.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bueno |first=Daniel |date=2025-02-27 |title=New Yotsuba Manga Features Azumanga Daioh Cameo |url=https://www.siliconera.com/new-yotsuba-manga-features-azumanga-daioh-cameo/ |access-date=2025-02-28 |website=Siliconera |language=en-US}}</ref> == Media == === Manga === {{main|List of Yotsuba&! chapters{{!}}List of ''Yotsuba&!'' chapters}} The manga is written and illustrated by [[Kiyohiko Azuma]], and published by [[ASCII Media Works]] in the monthly [[shōnen manga|''shōnen'']] (aimed at teenage boys) [[List of manga magazines|manga magazine]] ''[[Dengeki Daioh]]'' since the March 2003 issue, with serialization on-going.
