Almost perfect  
by MaZzAx
February 28th, 2011, 8:01am
Rating: 9.0  / 10.0
For me this manga was so very almost perfect. It would have got a full 10 if it didn't seem as though it jumped from the ambiguous last scene to many years later. The ending is usually the let down of most manga though.
It was a nice ending but I felt like I would have enjoyed a bit more elaboration on how things came about and people's reactions and stuff like that.
Not sure if there is some kind of manga that follows the series though.
Anyways on the manga as a whole it was an enjoyable, pleasant read with a strong female lead character and an amusingly second-place lead male which made it very appealing to me smile
Definitely recommended.

I agree that there wasn't much depth to any of the characters, nor did they really develop. It was cute, Kiri was cool (could have done without the rest of the gang), and some parts made me smile, but the same scenario kept happening over and over and over again. This manga could have been half as long.

Also don't like how the ending was handled, at all.

Pretty good

I quite liked the characters. The plot's a bit repetitive up until about chapter 30, though; I honestly think I could have lived without about 15 chapters in between 15 and 30. Then from 30 on it gets quite good and entertaining and actually goes somewhere.

best manga ever

this manga has the best of the best heroine ever, KIRI-chan is like the coolest (i hope there are some other mangas or yet more mangas that has a kiri chan -like heroine because almost all shojo are like clumsy and cry babies) anyways, this manga is so hilarious you cant just stop laughing and the thing is once youve started with it you cant just stop reading it.

the ending was also cute, over all two thumbs up or shall i say BRAVO to the author, smile

Interesting main character

First of all let me say i'm a guy and because i'm a guy my rating will obviously be biased.
I came upon this manga because i was searching for a different female character, i was sick and tired of cry babys and that sort of lot.
Kiri makes this manga good.
If it wasn't for her and her particular way of life, so to speak, i would haver never, in a million years, read this story. I managed to overlook the theme, the other majority of the cast, who are annoying to be honest, and the tame plot because Kiri is amazing!
That's not to say that it's rubbish, it isn't, i actually enjoyed the last chapters, but it was so over the top. Still it's a lot better that several manga i've read, it doesn't have the: oh does he like me? oh what do i do? sort of dialogue and plot that annoys me to no end.
Give it a go for you won't find many more characters like Kiri.

Patience is a virtue...

Most people seem to either love this one or find it really dull... To be honest I picked this one up once and got bored only to return in another couple of months for want of something to read.

It's true the romance comes slow and late and not in especially hot-n-heavy rushes. but once you get to know the characters you realize that this was the only way to proceed with it. During this theire tender moments were that much more enjoyable.

The story can be a little over the top, but it had to be if it wanted to work. Realistically, a story about hairdressers/beauticians would not be that climactic... (Iori and his aromatherapy makes me shake my head every time)

Once you accept both of these things its actually really sweet and easy to read. (Oh and imagine that every time a new rival appeared it was like a coin operated fighting game, it makes it funny.) I enjoy the diversity of characters even if they were slightly extreme examples. Narumi really charmed me after a time and continues to be my favourite even though through the first few chapters I found him annoying.

Stick with this one if you want a fun, silly, light read and you wont be disappointed. If you do stick around the ending is all warm and fuzzy and tied up with a bow.

Like vs. Dislike... liked!

Note: This review is for Beauty Pop and Beauty Pop Stage 2

A cutesy story about hairstyling. This story has a tendency to veer toward the extreme (mostly in characters) and I’m guessing will be either liked or disliked by readers. I myself found the story enjoyable but not one of my all time favorites.

Plot- A fairly simple plot, become the best makeover team in Japan, of course it doesn’t stay simple for long when you throw in people who want to stop their plan and of course love triangles. But even the opposition wasn’t all that complex and the love triangle came late and wasn’t to major a part of the plot.

Characters- All the characters seem to be taken to the extremes in their actions, but it’s kind of fun to read so their extremeness didn’t wear me down. But Kiri did get on my nerves a bit later on; she was too uninterested in anything! She shows hints at her true feelings but she… just didn’t seem to care enough at the time. Thankfully a time skip ahead showed some of her true feelings and helped her seem a bit less uncaring. But still the main character seemed like it was less Kiri, who got a little dull at times, and the main character felt like it was more Narumi, who I was more interested in reading about because of his more interesting reactions. As the story progressed the story gathered a lot of strange people into its plot, and while that’s not bad and was sometimes interesting it was also sometimes annoying and I wanted just one semi normal character now and then.

Art- It was all right, it wasn’t the greatest but it worked for this manga so I’m satisfied by the artwork even if sometimes I felt it was a bit lacking.

Other- I don’t really remember being bored with this manga while I was reading it but looking back I can see how some people could become bored, the plot does get a bit repetitive and I can find how some people won’t like the unusual cast of characters who do wear their likability a bit thin. Be warned, the romance isn’t really there… not until later chapters and then it felt more like one sided affection (until the time skip at the very end that is…), so don’t start reading this expecting a lot of romance. But I still think it’s an interesting story that if you’re thinking of reading and have time to read you should definitely do so!

6/10 -Liked it

cool kiri-chan

another manga i love because of the characters. i really like Kiri-chan. she's not your typical female character so its kinda refreshing. i was a bit disappointed of the romance though, its just too little romance. i was really looking forward to Narumi and Kiri's romance. however, i like the last chapter especially the extra story. so cute. well, i do hope there is a sequel to this where they are all grown-ups. i think it'll be interesting. ^_^

A dream come true

It's one of the best I've read so far (I'm on chapter 40). The main character (female) aka Kiri is awesome. I've always "dreamed" of such a female character in all those mangas I read and was annoyed. Narumi is funny, surprisingly enough not annoying at all. The others are cool too. I'm glad that the romance is slow, and that it's so unusual (for example, the boys is not "in control" like almost everywhere else, he holds her and she doesn't die of blushing), it's more real somehow, and those scenes where she helps everyone and all that, it's not too fake and annoying like in most of the other manga. I just roll my eyes to those scenes and skip them or just stop reading. Even if it gets "worse" in the last 11 chapters, it will still be one of the best I've read because it's different and the Kiri is simply a dream come true.
