Personal ratings: 4.5

I cannot stop wondering when the next chapter would come out. 

Really really love this series. It talks about love relationship between different types of people, and high school life. 

Really unique character created, both the main girl and main boy. Totally in love with this series <3 However, I think that sometimes the chatacters say werid stuff, that people would not normally say in those kind of situations.

I think what i really like about this manga is that, even though there are many characters liking the two main character, which i would usually find it irritating, i liked it. And i could not bring myself to hate any characters in the manga. I think it's because the author really shows how the people in the manga liked the main characters, and how the main characters are very faithful to each other. 

I think in this manga, these kind of situations helps us understand both the main characters and sub characters feelings, and personality.

One thing that bothers me is the overwhelming amount of words in each page. Even though in some panels, the drawings are small, the author still fit in alot of words. This can sometimes make the manga get abit boring.

Comment on latest Chapter:

OMG I totally loved how they fast forward time, without really missing the major events. I love the non-speech part of the manga. Really nice and cute. Though I wanted more Sasayan and Natsume scenes (keke). But the last part was actually quite touching XD

-Update coming soon-

Art ratings: 4.5

Love the art. Unique to me. I totally love the way they draw the eyes and hair. Some people may not really like it, but i'm totally in love with the unique drawing. At some angles, the eyebrowns can look werid....
