Kilala Princess (Disney's きらら☆プリンセス, Dizunii Kirara Purinsesu?) is a shōjo fantasy, romance, and adventure manga series written by Rika Tanaka and illustrated by Nao Kodaka. The first 15 episodes were serialized by Kōdansha in the monthly manga magazine Nakayoshi, while the last 8 episodes were serialized in the quarterly Nakayoshi Lovely. It was later collected in five bound volumes (volumes 1–3 containing the Nakayoshi episodes and volumes 4–5 containing the Nakayoshi Lovely episodes). It is about young girl named Kilala and a lost Prince named Rei who join together to find the "7th Princess" and save the kingdom of Paradiso. It has similarities to the Kingdom Hearts series.
The series is licenced in English by Tokyopop in North America and Chuang Yi in Singapore. The first volume in English was printed in January 2007. Tokyopop has released Volume 1 and 2, but has split them into "Manga Minis," meaning the two volumes were split into four. Tokyopop's Volume 4 was released on December 2007 and no further volumes have been released since.
Since Tokyopop's license to Kilala Princess has expired, Del Rey Manga now licenses all Kodansha Manga titles, leaving the series out of print in North America.

“He is blowing on light
each time for the first time.
His fingers cover the mouths of all the sopranos,
each a princess in an exact position.”
