story:
The initial plot starts as off with Kanoko planning to revive the newspaper's club just to cause trouble and observe the "war" between the 3 biggest clubs; with the "war" being a main plot point throughout the story. The author knows that it is a ridiculous and exaggerated version of high school so she decides to play into it comedically. And while it is a comedy, the author makes sure to convey real and important lessons and themes brilliantly, without it feeling awkward.

art:
personally speaking, I love the art style of the author, the art also improved considerably from the prequel.

characters:
The dynamics between the ... various characters are the heart of the story, with each having a different and hilarious relationship. The author also delves into the psyche of the main cast and explores it masterfully.

The story mainly follows Kanoko's (and Tsubaki's) development as they get to interact with many different types of people and discover themselves. They are forced into these unusual situations that slowly start to change them and broaden their horizon. Their romantic development is also natural and sweet!

(My personal fav is the relationship between Kanoko and her best friend Momoka and their genuine beautiful bond)

enjoyment:
I have read this manga numerous times and it gets better each time, I absolutely adore it!

STORY:

The story has more of an episodic nature but there is a clear main plot intertwined beautifully in between, and in a way, all these chapters tie in together in the end. The story at its core is about kindness and the power of love (all kinds of love from familial to platonic to romantic). The main premise is very simple but the execution couldn't be better.


ART:
The art is very simple but it's very cute imo and conveys the emotions outstandingly.

CHARACTERS:
The characters are what make up the story to be very frank. The author makes sure to portray the characters, even ... those who are bad people at first glance, from a sympathetic perspective. The character's struggles are explored in a hopeful, yet realistic way. The character development comes naturally with none of it being forced just for the sake of the story.

ENJOYMENT:
To describe the charm of the series is very hard, the characters and the story just draw you in unexplainable ways! The story is realistic but it focuses on the positive aspects of life(exactly what i need). I found it very nice to see a simple story about hope and kindness especially after consuming intense pieces of media.
