Happy?

Sigh... This series brings human nature out really nicely, but still, I can't say a manga is good if the only emotion it brings out of you is anger.
I get so pissed off because of that girl from the competing tennis company that I just want to stop reading.

Umino Miyuki's just not charismatic enough and yes, her family's infuriating, but if you're reading Happy! you're there for the supporting cast, all of whom I love to *pieces*; the more two-faced and conniving they are the better. And the yakuza with the secret emo pain--! Be still my heart!

And there's something to be said for watching such a boring protagonist's life just get worse and *worse*, until - fingers crossed - she has no choice but to become interesting.

O vices, o sins, o bloody shitty excesses!

Page-art is quite expressive and most expressively adds to the stupidities or absurdities of crying, snickering, laughing, etc., of the whole c-a-r-i-c-a-t-u-r-i-s-t-i-c manga, but, besides that, nothing impressive.

Umino’s brother leaves her with a huge debt and now she’s got to play tennis – again – in order to repay every yen of it. So… uh… what do you have to do to in order to loose 250 million yen?

Characters are made of vices, sins and bloody shitty excesses, amazingly, it’s not ero-guro-nansensu, amazingly.

I title it: | The most annoying manga of all time! |

Or just

| An expensive feast for masochists: o, we just love da paiiiiin!!! |

I can't stand half the characters and I would like this manga a lot more if the characters weren't so annoying, the plot is nice and well developed, but the characters suck. Umino is too naive and doesn't notice the true personalities of the people around her, her siblings are pretty spoiled, but they're just kids. The mama's boy, w/e his name is, can't make up his mind and do something. That choko girl makes me want to slap her over and over again when i read this, I think she's the biggest b...annoying jealous woman in all of the manga I've read

EDIT: I've changed my mind...this manga is just annoying in itself. How the hell is this realistic? -_-
I would've liked it more if the characters weren't so...

I can't stand this sort of series. The sort of series which does nothing but point out that people are all dicks. If you're looking for a series to reinforce your view that people suck, this is the manga for you!

happy was the first manga i ever saw. when my dad came back from a business trip to japan he brought a magazine(?) featuring the 201st chapter. there was some english in there that helped me figure out what it was about, but other then that i was clueless, and still am. however i remembered the name and reading it now i recognize the more outrageous characters. I can't wait till i can read chapter 201 in english, arg!!!!

reading this manga makes me wanna kill somebody like Umino Miyuki, coz she sees this damn world with such a baby eyes, and i can't stand that everybody is pushing her so bad. I think, someone like her is better off dead, and straight go to heaven. But then, my murder intent turn into deep sadness, coz, Urasawa really portrays every bad side of human being. Someone nice and friendly is actually have a mean and devilish heart. And of course, in a world like that, a baby umino miyuki surely hard to breathe.

Lovely art, I think it has the same captivating style as recent Miyazaki's. Story is very depressing since it reveals much of human flaws, especially the cunning of jealous women. Deserves more attention, but its pessimistic nature may be a turn off to some readers.
