In my honest opinion there wasn't really anything special about this manga. I was basically your average shoujo manga.
(tiny spoiler in the story review section)
Story:
The story was like any other cliche shoujo manga. There wasn't really anything necessarily different about it that made it stand out. Basically, a girl falls in love with a guy, there are male and female love rivals and [SPOILER ALERT] they end up dating. What a surprise.

Characters:
Again, totally normal. The only thing I can say that stands out is that at the beginning of the story, Taki, the main male character, isn't depicted as super popular and ... a playboy like most shoujo manga. The heroine, Mio, isn't particularly different and is actually irritating in some ways.

My main issue with this manga is the ending. It seemed to be very rushed and, although I don't want to say anything without knowing the mangaka's situation, it could probably be expanded into at least 3 more chapters. This manga left me with the feeling of "Wait... oh was that the ending?".

So, honestly, I wouldn't really recommend 360* material to anyone looking for something unique.

Honestly, this is super cliche shoujo manga. Girl likes popular boy, boy doesn't like girl (at first), and so on. Anyways, this manga was bad in my opinion. The MC, Hanako, was annoying. She was super gullible, weak, and talked about herself in third person. Is that normal? And then we have the other MC, Kakeru. He would sexually harass Hanako. And both MCs were really immature. The story was basic and uninteresting. Honestly, the only thing I think was decent about this manga is the art. Unless you're REALLY bored and have nothing to read, I wouldn't recommend this manga.

Honestly, I usually hate to read ongoing manga because all of the cliffhangers and such, but Soredemo Sekai wa Ustukushii was a must read for me. Here's why:
Story (10)
At first I thought this manga seemed kind of cheesy and suspicious, but I was wrong. You will not find a manga that's even similar to the story. It leaves you on the edge of your seat, waiting to see what happens next. New and interesting characters appear every few chapters, which makes it even more suspenseful.

Characters (9)
Nike- a caring, humble, somewhat masculine and stand-on-top-of-a-twenty-story-building kind of girl. Basically badass. Mangakas always depict princesses as a spoiled ... and naive, but boy Nike is neither.
Livi- He's supposed to be a kid right? Livi literally can do anything. And he will do anything for Nike, hands down. It's especially funny when he gets jealous.
Neil- He never gets any credit, but deep inside I feel like he's behind the Sun kingdom operations (maybe). He seems calm but when he cracks he gets mad. REALLY mad.

I would definitely recommend this manga to anyone who loves romance with a little fantasy and adventure. It's probably one of my favorites, and if you like it you should watch the anime too!
