| Entirely Likeable by MightyMaeve on November 14th, 2009, 7:09pm |

I love the illustration of the one character's long hair! Usually I marvel at her ability to draw curls, but she proves she can draw long and straight beautifully as well!
I liked--and felt for--all three of the main characters. They were all quite distinct and believable in their feelings. I'm eagerly looking forward to the release of the sequel from the English publisher! I'm sure many readers want to know the rest of the spurned man's story. And--thankfully--it was created by Fuwa-sensei!
The story and the art both never reach crescendo levels of inspiration or delight in myself, but it was a pleasant read. Each page was easy to read, and compelling to keep turning to the next page.
It lacked a little in 'omph' for the drama of moments presented and art style, but it did make me smile and the emotions were illustrated well. I liked the theme of different types of strengths and how other people's perspectives are often forgotten as we focus on our own.
And that bizarre avant-garde painting in the writer's room...i kept looking at it from every angle, trying to figure it out...

| cute and well developed by lylicagalatea on August 14th, 2009, 11:51am |

Surprisingly for a story with such deep feelings involved it is well developed and characters grow and change with the right speed and the right pace. It isn't rushed, it isn't superficial. I really enjoyed it.
It's a pity that the drawings were a bit disproportioned but it is a pretty old manga so it's understandable. The funny faces were hilarious.
The fact that you actually are led by the nose by the author (first hating Tsukasa and then really wishing for him to win) means it is a very well done story. However I do agree with elenaluz (a review in this page) who thinks that sending Tamura home was the easy way out.
Anyway, deeply recommended. Almost no sex scenes though, but it's good too since this story is all about emotions.

The art is great considering it was publish in the 90s. The story is perfect and really sweet. The 3rd party (Tamura) is also likable and of course the main characters. It was sad at few parts that made me shed tears a little and also some funny moments that cracks me up. If you're looking for a great story and less sex scenes then this is a must read for you and you won't be disappointed.

I liked this story; I thought the main characters worked well together. However, I also liked Tamura, and thought he and Naoya would have worked just as well. I wish Fuwa-sensei had not taken the easy way out, as so many mangaka do, and made the third wheel out to be the villain, but rather dealt with the heartache as it came.
