Spoiler (highlight to view)
Well, i can't say i loved it, but i do like it...It just that i'm not satifided by the ending!! D: I was like.. "WUT?! this is the end!?!?" -sigh- it was fun reading about the clients' story and thing.. BUT wut about Jin and K's 'LOVE STORY?!?! I wanted MORE!! a lot more romance...!!! Seriously the manhwa didn't show any romance between them UNTILL like the last two volumes!! it didn't even feel like Jin loved K that much..To me it seemed like Jin loved K as a brother or sumthing.. O_O"" hahaxD -sigh- But i gotta say the rest was pretty good, && the characters are all so wonderfully drawn!! They are so HOTT!! HAHAA Well, I do recommand it, even thoo i was a little disappointed....HMMMM well all the other part was goodd!! > : DD

Good for a Manhwa

After reading all the wonderful comments that people have written here about this manhwa I went and had a look at this manhwa.
I was not disappointed, this is probably the best manhwa I've read up to this point and I tend to avoid manhwas on purpose as they tend to have a strong heroine who goes through a lot of 'character development' and turns into a total wimp all from some horrible guy and well that’s it.
From this manga it is not the case, lets just say it’s like a mixture of XxxHolic and one of your favorite romance shoujos (you take your pick). It has a very good pace and I wasn’t left thinking that the character development was too slow at any point.
It does tend to be tear-jerking though but even if you don’t like sad stories you should try it and believe what all those other (good) comments say.
You may find the main female character annoying at first but she slowly changes throughout the story.
What one of the comments says about the art is true though – the artist does draw large feet and hands. >_>

It's a good read but sadly they stopped scanlating it and also tokyopop dropped it T_T. The characters are hilarious, and also the stories are sad but with some happy endings >.>. Ending was cute though ^^.

one of the best manga out there!

and i can be pretty picky about manga.

i agree with all the positive comments mentioned in other people's comments. This is definitely a manga I can imagine myself picking up time after time and experience the same emotional impact I had felt when I first read it. Great mix of comedy, drama, romance, and the supernatural. It is perfectly balanced and there are no slow parts. I enjoyed reading about the author's mentality (she has a note in the beginning of each volume i think)- how she doesn't like all those sneering wish-granters who would grant a wish but twist it around for their own amusement. She writes about a magician who would try to grant people their wishes without hurting them. And there are just so many twists that grab at your heart in a good way. Haven't read a manga this well-written in a while.

One of my favorite

'I Wish' is a manhwa I have read many times. I can't remember how many. It's something like xxx holic but more romantic and comical. The art isn't the best, but is decent. The story line is a masterpiece. The author did such a good job on mixing comedy and seriousness. It begins as a more comcial manhwa in the beginning and the middle, but as it reaches the end, it become more serious and heart breaking. It will take a while for the whole story line to appear, but you won't regret taking that time. It's one of my all time favorite manhwas.

Starts iffy but grows

I bought the first two volumes on a whim since it reminded me of xxxholic premise wise and then ended up downloading all the scanlated chapters afterwards (up to first chapter, volume 7). The first volume was dry imo and the heroine annoyed me a bit (luckily, she either grew or I got attached to her somehow). However, by second and third volume the series really starts taking off.

What makes this a good series is that the small, episodic sections are well written and how the wishes are handled is sweet at times (my favorite way was with the story of the girl and her mute love) while dropping enough hints to keep you interested in the overall arc. Overall, I'd say force your way through the first volume and keep reading because it's worth the read.

I'll admit I read very little of it, so my rating might not be totally fair.
The girl seems like the type to butt in to K's affairs when she shouldn't.. not to mention she's an annoying brat. I mean, it starts off with her wishing her family was dead. And then she blames it on a "stupid god"? What the hell!
I'll have to pass on this one, I can't stand the heroine. And if it's really a shoujo, then I don't to see poor K fall in love with a stupid ditz like her.

The art kept distracting me from the story/plot not that it's bad or anything but I thought the mangaka's proportions were a bit off. I kept looking at the character's huge feet/shoes and skinny ankles. >.< I really couldn't keep reading it, the art isn't bad I just think it's a little too weird and strange for me sorry. My rating? 6/10

I really like this one. It's strange and the way it has been piled up is different too. I think that's what makes it much more interesting. Also, the stories are human, mostly love stories. I would recommend it. It's fun to read too. The main female character is a funny one.

This manhwa is really interesting, although some of it is a little complex to understand, in the end, you slowly realize what's happening...The only thing is, that is there suppose to be a romance relationship between Jin and K, or what? Is it just cases that revolve on love? It's odd how they put random half-Homosexuallity-ish stuff in the cases, because you cant tell if it's weird or not, since their straight and innoccent o_0. Anyway, it's really interesting! I'm looking forward to other chapters!
