Houkago x Ponytail is a nice and cute shoujo manga that is easy to read. Natsugi, a high school girl who is an otaku, unexpectedly meets a mangaka, Kiritani Taichi that appears to be creepy looking, and injures him!

In order to make up for her injury of him, she becomes his character model. After finding out he is her favourite author of shoujo mangas, the manga follows her perspective of day to day life of interacting with Kiritani, some scenes of herself and friends at school, a love rival and development of a new love?

The story isn't much different of some other shoujo ... mangas, however there is some uniqueness as it does play with some aspects of romance and humour.
The art is very well done.
Due to the shortage of chapters, there isn't much character development, but you get an insight on their personalities and who they are from the introduction and later on through the manga.

This manga is cute and funny to laugh and smile to. It is very enjoying and quick to read. It's not so much of a manga needing to think deep into, but an entertaining and cute manga. I would definitely recommend for a quick and nice read. It will definitely leave you with a warm happy feeling inside.

I really enjoyed watching this anime. The plot and story was extremely clever. This anime actually made me tear up in many parts. The ending leaves us wondering and thinking about it. Though it didn't exactly have the happily ever after ending, it was suited and I liked it.

Overall I really enjoyed it, the moral was excellent as it constantly reminded us about it through the movie. I really loved the suspenseful parts and how we thought everything was going to turn out fine but then next minute it's a disaster. There were also many plot twists for the characters ... but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie. It was nice and was rather emotional. This movie is great for adventure and romance lovers. Beautiful movie!
