"If someone says he/she loves you - do not believe it. Time is better adviser, trust it."
STORY - 10/10
I have read a lot of romance/harem manga and I have finally found what I have been looking for ages - interesting, intruiging, beautiful and pure story where almost everything is perfect. After reading this I could not think straight for almost a day because of what I read. This is truth. But I do not ask you to believe it straight through my words, that is why I am writing this.
Story is not something new, I have to admit it. One of the things that really
...
amused me in this story is not the plot itself, but how everything and everyone progress with their feelings, what they do to love and be loved. But the most important part in this story is definitely ending. I was so shocked that I even cried a bit over the ending part. I cried because this beautiful story ended the way I wanted and on a possitive note where everyone got what they wanted. Almost everyone and everything.
Though series contain a lot of humor, I liked that Mizuki Kawashita (manga`s author) did not over do it and let the series be more mature but romantic and funny. Because if she added more humor to it, then we might get another Love Hina or something. I am not trying to be rude, I am just saying that if series contained more humour than it has, then it might probably be more comedy/romance like and not drama/romance.
ART - 10/10
That is probably why I started to read this manga. I liked how characters are represented and how they express their feelings, and sometimes I even thought that they are real. Nothing really to add. Art is amazing!
CHARACTERS - 9/10
That is what makes this series unique and interesting. In my opinion, author concentrated more on developing Aya, Kitaoji and Nishino - three main girls, rather than on Junpei, who is protagonist. But how she illustrated relationships between these characters is something amazing.
Since this is a harem manga, so adding extra girls and making them to fall in love with Junpei is kind of normal thing for author to do. But I my opinion, there are too many girls and some chapters are nothing but spin-offs. That is not bad, but when you read it you want to find out what is happening with main characters, not with extras. Because you know that they do nt stand a chance at all.
ENJOYMENT - 9/10
Every chapter I read was something to think about, so I was reading quite slow. This series makes you think what would you do if you were in one of the main character`s shoes. Quite interesting and difficult, I would say. Romantic, humorous and sad - great mix to read, is not it?
OVERALL - 10/10
Though series lack some things, I rated it 10 of 10. I questioned myself "why? what is SO unique about this manga that you gave 10 out of 10?". That is simple - I love comedy/romance/drama manga and anime, and this series has it all! You will definitely will not regret if you read it.
If you decided to read it, then you can follow some recommendations of mine. These are not necessary but I expereinced a lot of possitive emotions from these. Here we go:
- Read alone, that will make you concentrated more on characters and story. You will start questioning yourself "what would I do in situation like this?";
- Read with music on background. Something romantic or acoustic. I used to read it with Jamisonparker on background but your choice might be different;
That is it, guys. I hope my review was helpful. if not... well, I just wanted to share with my "number 1 romantic manga of all time" :)
Thank you for reading,
Regards,
