As the first manga Ive ever read, it wasnt terrible. It consists of a boy that has abnormally beautiful family members, which is constantly being compared to his average looks. The story travels through senarios of the main character, Akira Sakamoto, and the awkwardness of being a teenager combined with the unfortunante situation of being plain in a family swimming in beauty.

It has plenty of light-hearted humor with bishounen and bishoujo. The story itself is a little dry, being that the main character is constantly whining about not being as hot as his family, as well as the occasion glimpse of ... how hard it is to be beautiful. Overall, it wasnt the best of the best, but not a waste of time either.

Many of my anime friends said "you have to watch this." I finally buckled down and decided to watch the whole series. The one thing that everyone says is DO NOT STOP WATCHING; YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE WHOLE THING!

The first few episodes were cute, but nothing i would choose to watch on my own. BUT i did not stop watching. The story, the characters, and even the setting take a 180 degree turn, and blow you away.

Episode 13 is particularly where the drastic change occurs, BUT if you dont watch the previous 12 episodes, it wont be seem ... all that spectacular. It would be like opening a book and starting at the middle. You need the character build-up of Vash, the main character.

The story, action, characters, and suspense make this anime above most others. What is human kind?: are we beings that need compassion that are innately good, or are we filth that needs to be exterminated?

Hilarious. It was always exciting to go on to the next episode. The characters are well-formed and are great foils to each other. It has a great balance of light-hearted humor and deep-soul drama. High rewatchablility.
