I was looking for some trap manga to read, and the idea to re-read this one popped into my head, and after re-reading, I thought I'd check some reviews out and write one.

Story: The story was very well laid out with quite a, what I'd say, deep meaning behind it. As you go along through to the middle of the series, I found it tended to get a little difficult to understand and follow the direction the story was taking, but it quite effectively got the concept and message across. I read it expecting to be trap romance, but it did take quite a different ... turn, with less focus on the trap and (subtle) shounen ai aspect and more on the "friendship and respect" area of "love". However, the story is still enjoyable for most people I'd say.

Art: I personally love the art for this manga, it suits the story quite well. Very simplistic and not overly filled with effects like most shoujo or any manga that would seemingly focus on romance. It tends to get a bit more cartoony at comedic scenes, which fits well with the weight of the manga. And of course, trap manga, the mandatory panty shots. And Bulge.

Character: Great development of the characters and their personalities. Easy to grasp the type of character each of them are as well as relatively light background story development, with more focus on developing their current character with only necessary background and flashbacks for the two main-main characters.

Enjoyment: The manga is enjoyable, not just as a trap manga, I'd say less enjoyable as a trap manga and more so as a manga about friendship and platonic feelings, it deserves some respectful enjoyment for conveying that aspect so well. Generally enjoyable for almost any manga reader (or even non-manga readers) unless any bit of trap or shounen ai irks them to the point that they can't read it. As I've said, slightly hard to follow as it climaxes, but the concept it conveys is very light and enjoyable, a manga for some light heartstring pulling without a serious plot twist or problem.

Very good manga: 9/10
