This manga is a collection of four short stories, each one with following the same story archetype with a different premise. "Girl meets boy" is not exactly right, as half of these stories involve people already known the heroine. Rather, it's a depiction of falling in love, whether it takes place quickly, slowly, or was always present and only needed the right trigger to clarify the feelings, all under different scenarios. Fans of josei, or those who want an introduction to "try before they buy," should give it a whirl. With four short stories, it's an excellent summary of what the genre offers.
Talking about each
...
invidual story would spoil the story and make this review longer than the manga, so what I can say is that each story has its own unique perspective, and works toward the end goal (love and marriage) from a different angle. That said, I think the last story (which gives its name to this story collection) may be the best one. None of the heroines are lacking in terms of their own personality or goals, so ultimately it's about how they get to that end goal (love and marriage). Frankly, any of the four heroines are wife material, so it works out!
The stories could easily have been spun out to be longer, but as I said, thinking of these as an introduction to josei, or a bite-sized snack, makes it easier to accept. I would recommend.
