Moderator Note: This review was originally written for Love Graduation, but has since been merged into Beauty!!
So, this is a typical shoujo manga.
I enjoyed reading this one-shot, but there aren't only good points about it.
Positive:
- The art is clean and kind of cute
- the plot is quite captivating, but not something really original

Beauty; an apt name for such a strange shoujo tale.
Beauty is not a manga tale to fantasize about, but rather one to have fun with and smile at some of the more innapropriate moment. To enjoy this manga I'd say you just have to take it for what it is, a girl throwing up on boys. Now, I won't say that I'm truly familiar with the manga as it's been just under two years since I read this manga (sometime in January of 2008), but I do remember it fondly as I was the one that first added Beauty to MyAnimeList and I was rather surprised ...

In actuality i would rate this manga a 5.5 but decimals arent allowed
The story isn't awful, i guess if you are a shojou manga fanatic and love any shoujo manga, this manga would be alright, maybe a 6 or even a 7. But as someone who has read hundreds of shoujo manga, this falls below average. It is very dull despite attempts to make it other wise. A girl who feels like throwing up every time she encounters beauty? Not amazingly unoriginal but still uncommon. However everything else is just as cliche as it could get. The characters are unreasonable and just as tacky. Makoto ... Jul 31, 2009
This manga is awesome. I loved it. I like the main characters an I liket the plot as well. The story is about one girl that when she sees beauty she will throw away and when she esters the school she was forced to join the research beauty club. Later she falls in live with Atsushi (a handsome and hot guy) and they start dating. This manga is very cute and i think that you should try it.
