Well, it was typical love triangle. From the very beginning you can guess who she'll end up with, even though at a certain point I did have second thoughts.
The art was good, it was pretty enjoyable. As for the heroine, I just wanted to punch her, she's such a crybaby! *_*
Anyways, good manga for when you're bored, but If you're hoping for a "deep" love manga, don't even bother.

Adorable... but cliche

The lead girl is cute.
So are the lead boys.
It's obvious who she'll end up with, for anybody who can make unbiased and educated guesses.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
In every shoujo manga love triangle where one of the boys dates the girl, the boy who doesn't gets her in the end (if she likes him back at any point, that is). Always. After the first couple chapter I could predict the ending after the first two chapters and made sure not to get attached to Kyo, like I always do. I would really love it if there was a manga I could find that spoils the pattern.
I didn't have to force myself to finish or anything, because the entire time I was hoping, wishing, that there would be a cool new spin, stupidly by the way. Don't expect any sudden unexpected plot-twists, revelations, or suspense of any sort. She falls for two guys. Dates the one that likes her back. The other secretly loves her. And it stays a secret until she realizes she likes him better. Then she confesses. They kiss. Story ends. Been done a million times before, and will be done a million times over again.


It was really typical, and I don't really recomend it for people who've read [what seems like] a million shoujo manga love triangles, because it'll be just like any other, but for those who haven't read /that/ many shoujo manga love-triangles, go for it.

The art wasn't anything mentionable, but when she gets all dressed up I couldn't see the diffrence other than her hair.

It's an adorable manga when you really think about it, but only if your the kind of person who can read cliches without throwing up.

Gotta agree with the other comments. Mitsuki is too fickle, idiotic and indecisive. She really shouldn't deserve to end up with either guy. It's so obvious who she would end up with. I had to force myself to finish this series.

It's a cliched series with decently cute art. But it's still cliche.

the gal is two-timing...i think once you make a decision who u be with then stick to it..she ends up hurting both guys. I think she doesn't deserve both guys fall'n for her. She actually makes a bad choice choosing Atuska and not Kyo......kyo sacrafices a lot compared to Atuska ( who's hiding the whole time and not willing to confess)...what a wimp!

I dont like how she did that to Kyo, he was so in love with her as well. Usually, when there are love triangle in a story, it better to make it clear who the person will end up with or leave the ending undecide !! That would be much better ....
On the other hand, the mangake make me felt in some parts that Kyo was definitely goin to end up with Mitsuki, not Atsuki :{ So I was voting/ cheering for Kyo but in the end I was so disappointed... Boo hooo, I only read half of the last chapter cause I already know what is going to happend... doesn' t matter if the ending was unclear .. it will be much much better for Kyo's fans ( me included )

Well, this was very typical. Very cliched.The art is fine, but I don't see much of a difference in the appearances before and after the makeup. o_O
Anyway, the heroine of the story is really whiny, like usual.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
She doesn't have any self-confidence at all, and whenever there is a problem she just cries and goes running off. From work, school, etc. I swear, she does this every chapter or two. I sometimes wonder how the guys fell in love with her. She's really...emotional. The male leads get angry real easily too. Otherwise they were alright. I wish Atsuki was just a tad more expressive though. I started to hate Kyo after chapter 12 or 13. I don't know; I just don't like how love triangles are used in this story, but I felt sad for him in the last chapter. :'(
But I liked who she picked at the end, even though the story was leaning towards him more in the beginning.

So whats new? She falls head over heels for a star for how he treats her coz she looks great with make up instead of the guy who painstakingly makes her wear make up, when will this hero worship end? Anyways, huf puff , melodrama, Oh mama..tear drops at the slightest hitch, and does this manga makes u think girls want nothing but guys to force them!? ^ ^; ...well, at least she chose the right guy at the end..

If you are looking for a nice romantic shoujo with a bit of drama this one is a keeper because is just that cute. The art is also good but do not expect too much with the story since is a typical shoujo manga.
