kon no ki konoha by sweetgirl121 on August 25th, 2009, 3:22pm

I agree with gati , just finished reading the story and all I could think of "OMG this is a total ripped off of one of MIDORIKAWA Yuki's one shots ", it was ok nonetheless, but could not feel the ending coz it felt the deja vu

Replica by gati on August 14th, 2009, 2:58pm

Eh? The story is VERY similar to an older one by Yuki Midorikawa!
It resembles "Hotaru no Mori E" soo much I can't believe it!
There is a young girl meeting a ghost-like person in the forest and they become to like each other altough they can never be together! hello? WTF!
I like the STORY very much and also the works by Sumomo Yumeka but It seems like a copy of Midorikawas story.
I'm disappointed.

Beauty at its best, but still. by Uncle M on August 4th, 2009, 11:26am

good as a oneshot... the beauty and simplicity of the work really gets you. however due to the length of it i was not able to fully immerse myself with the story and either of its characters, so I hardly felt any sadness from the story

Another bittersweet tale from Yumeka Sumomo by djbreezy on April 19th, 2009, 10:59pm

I swear, whatever Yumeka Sumomo/Sahara Mizu does is just fantastic in terms of art and story. It is a absolutely WONDERFUL oneshot that actually made me tear up when he said:
Spoiler (highlight to view)
"Your a Liar, Akino"

It is very rare for oneshot to hit you like that.
This is a highly recommended short read for anyone who has the time.

Love it :) by :Mikko: on March 17th, 2009, 8:42am

... It was great smile The ending was sad, but you could feel the love between Akino and Konoha. And like you said, it's a bittersweet story, but it's beautiful.

Absolutely Mesmerizing and Spellbinding! by MightyMaeve on January 13th, 2009, 2:10pm

This story is magnetically delivered! It's like a hundred voices whispering in your ear, in an archaic language that is deceptively simple as it weaves tighter and tighter around you!

I read this one almost a year ago and have reread it and retold it to others many a' time. It echoed like a rock skipped across water.

The story has such a sad, yet beautiful acceptance of a tragic past and a unusual solution that was offered to a group of children many years before the heroine actually meets the hero of the story. As their relationship slowly develops, with carefully selected, meaningful and deftly delivered panels of words and art, I felt more and more for the relationship that they both desire so passionately, but time and magic held them prisoners.

I'm not sure I actually understand the co-relation with the girl's school friend and the tree boy, but I do think that the mangaka left it open so that each reader could find their own very personal interpretation of the ending.

The humour was so gentle and soft and left a smile on my face, especially the mischievous tickle scene! And the romance, although understated, was very powerful, especially the scene where the heroine presses her forehead against the boys' while he is still inside the tree. Awesome art!

Wow by Twilight_Moon on July 3rd, 2008, 7:19am

It's another beautiful story that entices the reader to feel sympathy for the characters and be swept along the mood. Truly, it's a beautiful oneshot, that almost made me cry. It wasn't extremely tragic, but just beautiful with a subtle sadness. I love this oneshot. It's worth your time.

Amazing. by jerricka on June 30th, 2008, 6:29pm

This may be my favorite oneshot I've ever read. The story was so unique and it didn't end in the stereotypical way. The art is very elegant and the way Sumomo writes the story, it's almost like reading a poem. Her words are beautiful.
