when i first read this. like early in the beginging when i hjust started reading manga, i was really impressed with the story line, characters, drawings..etc. but as i read a greater variety of mangas. this one started to pale in comparison. i still feel that the art is one of the best for a shojo manga but the plot is starting to wear thin. so overall its not that fantastic but it definately worthy of some praise.

To many people, it might be a common and typical romance manga but for me , it somehow left me a good feeling for a very long time. Don't let the typical part have you ignore this.

This was just another typical shoujo, showing the story of one girl's steps to "true love".
It sounds a bit cliche, but I really loved this manga. I feel like I can relate to it in a way ^_^;;

I seriously liked this manga! Very cute, heartwarming and in some parts believable! I could easily relate to Karin as being bullied and having fake friends. I've never had a boyfried even though I'm already 21. This manga was kind of my daydream. ^_^ I enjoyed allthough the lead female character was sometimes way too childish. But she wasn't the worst female character. Btw, just noticed how similiar this and Kyou Koi wo Hajimemasu are.

Anyway I give it 9/10.

Awwwwww, its actually good, when I first read this, it was in my early days of manga, but after a few chapters I got sooo bored, I just had to drop it...I quess its because back then I had a lot of choice sigh* anyway I came back to this after about a year, which is now and yes it is typical but its a very rich typical, I feel like this is one of the originals(its well done) tbh this is exactly like that manga ...erm I can't remember the name but the titles pretty long and it has three names, the last begins with a H...or what ever anyway this is the less smutty version of it, so tbh I prefer the other one.I like it because I think I'm desperate for new manga.......(oh how I envy those who still have a wide range) :'(.

i think this is the first manga i read!!! so of course i love it!
it's sooooooooooo cuteee!!!!!!!!
now, i know that there are better mangas.. but there are much worst!!!!

thank you Kare First Love!! thank you!!!

In the end, I started skimming through the chapters to find something redeeming. Nanri is a nice side character, but that's about it. It might be a nice manga to read if it's your first shoujo, but the plot and the characters have been rehashed time and time again in many other manga. It's not anything special in my eyes.

i LOVE this manga it was so cute, and if you like a transformation story, where a character was ugly in the beginning but beautiful at the end, this is great. i love the two main characters, and i liked the story between the two. i recommend it to anyone. its very sweet and cute.

Karin is so cool and funny, and she thinks like any girl would. she doesnt totally give in to her boyfriend, and i liked that alot not like all the other heroine, would become their boyfriend total pet. she soo lovable.

Kiriya-san is super funny, and is a typical boy. its so cute to see how much he changed and i was glad that he wasnt mean to karin.

the story totally focuses on only Kiriya and Karin, not their friends at all...but i still love them.

Overall I really enjoyed this manga, I'm not really sure if it deserves the ten, but I personally really enjoyed it, that I could not put it down. Sure it had some boring parts, but none the less it was overall really great!! It has some thing's that now a days are extremely rare to find. With a lot of great moral values mixed in with it, it has to be on my top list =D !!

if you're a shoujo lover, you'll still enjoy this one, well it wouldn't become a favorite but you won't hate it. for shoujo lovers that like light hearted and simple romantic story, read this it's a typical story but it's not annoying you should read this one if you're tired of reading complex stories that has a lot of stuff going on )
