I just finished it today and it was really awesome story, it made me curse, sigh, felt sorry, sad, laugh, and like to a character in this series... and yeah people who talks about a lesson from this manga is ABSOLUTELY TRUE!

It felt like all love story that I have read was owned by this one,, I hope I can find another good story like this one.. so if someone whoever read this please recommend me some and thank you if you do..

Very funny to see all the ways that a girl can be mad, her expressions and reactions XD liked a lot when nagisa was mad-furious-bersek.

This manga is a lesson of love thru perseverance and sincere communication (or lack of it ) a bit of ecchi for the boys °¬° enjoy it a lot made aught most part, sometimes sad-hearth sick or made your heaert skip a beat or blush n///n

Liked the art a lot, nagisa is beautifully drawn (her eyes, lips, curves, those pair of...... everything of her just beautiful ^^ )

Hope you like it as much as i did

Many of you may disagree with me, but although this kind if genre of manga is sadly overused, lame MC, pretty girls he likes, misunderstanding that happens, etc, etc, but strangely enough this is the only manga that i ever read that actually made me cry, sure as lame as it may be the story may be dragged a little too long, but there's a lot lesson of life here in this manga alone than in any other manga...

All in all the biggest thing this manga gives to me is a lesson about life and love, about how love does not only beautiful but also sad and full with struggle some times, but if you really love someone, that's Masuo-san for you....
Try it... it doesn't hurt you know

This manga is a very good but hard to finish manga as the mangaka seem to like to have a chain of misfortune for masuo
i don't know if the mangaka run out of idea of not.
But if u can watch until the last volume it would start getting better there and it wuold make a very good manga, its is one of the best manga for me!!

I enjoyed the characters quite a bit but I did rate it down because the plot was so cylical, he does something bad, she overreacts from a misunderstanding, friend makes it all better...

It is a great manga. Has its moments of boredom, but are few, and most of the time is quite funny. In few words a definetly worth a try one. Nice storyline for a harem, and also, has a well done ending, what else to ask for this genre so over-exploited?

This manga was really old-fashioned. It resembles Maison Ikkoku so much, with addition of ecchi . The protagonist is a little excessively wimpish, indecisive. Anyway, I like it, perhaps I'm at the age for serious relationship.
If u enjoy this manga, should read Maison Ikkoku and Kimagure Orange Road. Those two are really masterpieces IMO.

read the whole series in one go, and i must say it does have its poignant moments. the art grows from the first few volumes, as does the story. although the pace was kind of slow and some moments could've been dramatized for more effect, the story was good overall. touching, but being dragged across 17 volumes does get a bit redundant. the morals of this story fit nicely with its mood and atmosphere, but in real life diligence and the pursuing of dreams is not equivalent to success.

This manga really grows on you. It was hard to read through it in the earlier volumes but once it catches you, it never lets go. A very sweet love story that I wouldn't mind rereading later on. Thank you EMS Team for scanlating this.

I don't know exactly when I started reading it, but ever since then this manga had made a really big impression on me.
The characters grew with time, and they grew closer to my heart at the same...
You must read it till the end to fully capture the whole picture of this wonderful work, and not just spew nonsense after reading a few chapters, like so many others do.
I'm not gonna rant about all the good and the not so good parts of the story, after all, it's everyone's own preferences that make them like/dislike things, I'm just gonna say this:
For me, this is one of my favorite works, something that just caught me. I'm glad, that I read this manga, and I think there are lots of others, who think the same.
Funny thing is, some of the situations the poor guy got into are somewhat similar to what I experienced when encountering women:-)
All in all, it was worth the time, sweat (when I got worked up thinking-COME ON!?! DON'T BE SO STUPID, DO IT LIKE THIS, NOT LIKE THAT!!! but well, I did even stupider things when in love, so... LOL) and tears I shed during the time I read this manga.
P.S.: Thanks for the EMS team for bringing this manga to us!
