| A manga not as good as the anime by SBX on July 1st, 2009, 3:12am |
|
I may be in the minority here, but oftentimes I prefer the manga to the anime. Seto no Hanayome (hereafter SnH) is an exception to this rule. Perhaps because I discovered the anime first and was spoiled by the infamous "Hohohoho" laugh, but I didn't / haven't gotten the same kind of enjoyment out of the manga.
It's a general harem series, but it's easy to read, and not verging on embarrassing like To-Love-Ru and He Is My Master (is that still on hiatus?). The love "polygon" is pretty clear, and anything that tries to disrupt the axis seems rather forced.
That being said, it's still a good series (an 8.7 isn't particularly shabby), and any moment in which Lunar's father appears is of course priceless. I would mostly recommend the series to those who haven't already seen the cartoon - or they're going to be quite disappointed.

I read this after watching the anime series, and I must say, the animated version is far superior. However, that's not to say that the manga is not worth reading. I'm not a huge fan of the harem genre, but they tend to be quite hilarious, and this one, especially so. I like the idea behind the story; its one that I've never encountered before, and its certainly something that I wouldn't have been able to come up with; +points for being creative.
Other users have commented that there are a lot of 'wacky' situations, but that is what gives this series a unique charm. This is quite possibly the most hilarious series I have ever read; the only other competitor would be..."Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoiyo! Masaru-san" (which I highly recommend). The difference between "Seto..." and "Sexy Commando..." is that the former focuses purely on nonsense. Seto no Hanayome is a mix of elements, with a love triangle, school life, and a heavy dose of comedy.
I agree that things start to slow down and become a more typical 'love-triangle shounen manga' (hence, points off), and things can get a bit bumpy, but it was not enough to prevent me from completing the series. As is typical of the harem genre, some rather irritating characters appear later on, one of which I continued to dislike throughout the series, but most of the characters had something to contribute to the story and the lulz.
If you're looking for lulz, and this series doesn't seem to cut it for you....you might just have a problem.

yep2 why would a manga get to vol14+ if it wasn't good~
and if people even get to badmouth this then i'd badmouth "My name is Zushio" what the heck is w/ that manga its too overly done, only vol4 was good enough~

| I can't understand... by aagcnet on August 16th, 2008, 2:43pm |
|
| How people can talk bad about something so popular that gets to vol 14+... and compare it to some early work from the same mangaka that only got to vol 4... If you dont like it fine... there are colors for every taste. Just dont make it seem like a waste just because u dont like it. |

| Too chaotic.... by flowerzan on June 9th, 2008, 6:44am |
|
| The story had potential. I really thought it was a good manga to read but it became too repetitive and irritating. The chaos presented at the beginning of the story dragged over and over again that it was no longer humorous, it became annoying. |

| A complete disappointment compared to Zushio by Lord_Lucifiel on June 5th, 2008, 10:56am |

This was a complete disappointment compared to Zushio. (Note: I read this first and Zushio much later on.) The story was actually rather interesting at first given the interesting characters and author's ability to breath life to hilarious situations. However, after a certain while, the plot started to drag as more and more characters showed up. By the 3rd volume or so, everything was so lackluster I gave up completely as it was turning into another typical shounen story.
Note: readers expecting anything close to the mastery and brilliancy of Zushio might be sorely disappointed. This title certainly isn't as funny as his previous and well, it's not as fun either. |

I liked the first few chapters, but some characters I simply found annoying. The lead girl's mobster father and the assassin-in-a-shell in particular. It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't have such huge roles, but it seems like they take up a good portion of most chapters. They're not funny. In fact they're simply annoying. They ruin every romantic moment. This manga would be far better if it were free of those characters, or if they were minimized.

| Awful... by tanstaafl on November 20th, 2007, 5:35pm |

Gave up partway through Vol. 2.
Very litle romance, story, plot, character development, or anything else interesting. No idea if it ever gets better; I had to force myself to read even this far in hopes that the story would start going somewhere. 
Just a comedy that uses the same gag over and over and over: every time the young couple tries to spend time together, has a chance to get to know each other or to make progress in their relationship, etc. somebody jumps in and disrupts things.
I liked the two main characters and could sympathize with the situation they were in, but I just got fed up with them constantly getting dumped on every time it looked like their was finally going to be some progress in the story, their relationship, and in dealing with their situation.
