Train man is a fantastic manga, regardless of the fact theres only one volume. Frankly, theres no need to have anymore since if it continued, it would be very boring and dragging.. once you finish you'll feel satisfied about the ending, just cuz you so knew what would happen. Thankfully, i wasn't about to rip my hair out and wonder how fast i could get my hands on the next volume. It really is a feel good manga that will make you want to put it down gently and ponder upon your own personal love life. In a good way of course ^^

So basicly, the ... main character is your 22 year old fanboy.. and as geeky and shy as he can be, hes a delight to read about ! And really.. whats more fun then watching a total dork get a heart throbbing make over ;]

Then theres the girl, and thank your lucky socks shes not one of those kinda girls make you wanna rip the spine open out of frustration. Shes sweet, and not showy at all !

Looking up at my rather high scores, please do be tempted to read Train Man as might just enjoy it as i have !

A journey of a man who thinks he's never capable of having a girlfriend....when one event changed it all!
It was a blast reading it, with a few flaws though.

Pros:
-A great read for the hopeless otakus out there
Ikumi here simply couldnt picture falling in love, seeing his own status besides being an otaku. Along the way though, all he needs to do is to step up his game, and his journey just kept getting more interesting.
-a POV (Point of View) story?
The scenes drawn on Ikumi's story is all from Ikumi's point of view, making the journey more realistic because we won't read Mai-chan's point of view ... at all, which is very helping, for me.

Cons:
-The story itself is just what us loners imagine...so, unrealistic is the con here.
The epilogue resulted with what would Mai think of Ikumi's otaku side. Her reaction...iz what I would imagine if I did the same thing. On the other side, it wouldnt be as cute as what Ikumi had.

But forget the con. Its the sweetest story I've ever read in a manga.
You'll appreciate the ending too.
