From Viz:
After orphan Teru Kurebayashi loses her beloved older brother, she finds solace in the messages she exchanges with Daisy, an enigmatic figure who can only be reached through the cell phone her brother left her. Meanwhile, Teru meets and forms a strange friendship with mysterious Tasuku Kurosaki, her school's janitor. For some reason, Kurosaki always seems to be around whenever Teru needs help which leads Teru to wonder: Could Daisy be a lot closer than she thinks?
As the mystery of Daisy unfolds, Teru also discovers that there may have been a lot more to the life and death of her brother than she ever dreamed . . . and that the man she thought was her friend just might have all the answers.

This is an amazing manga, the characters are awesome. Teru is far from annoying (usually I find most girl characters in shoujo manga's annoying) and even though I like some other manga girls she's by far my favorite! It's never a dull moment. There's a real story to it (it's not just lovey-romance) most definaltly a 10!
(well, really my bed xD) C: it is one of the best mangas EVER. I love this author<3 They have some of the most unique stories ever! The main lead is strong, smart, and very funny.The whole STORY is funny (it is a comedy) And it is also extremely captivating.( it is a mystery) Usually, I hate mysteries. I'm like "PSH STUPID WANNA BE SHERLOCK HOLMES" But this isn't one of those stories where the main lead is all "Spy like" and is searching really hard for the answer. No, it's more realistic than that (the characters' personalities are, if not the story line). The main lead is aware something is up, but isn't thinking she's a 1st class investigator and being an idiot trying to find out what it is. That is one of the reasons this is the ONLY mystery I've ever read. I took a chance, being iffy about it at first.
and it is now easily in my top 5 mangas. c:
I love this, and It's good for ALL type of manga lovers, i think. <3 c:
I like this manga cause its not one from those regular shoujo stories that have a very simple boring plot . The plot is good and the events of the story are nice too. this manga is one of the best manga iv ever read
This manga is so overatted I'm Srry but it is , I'm struggling to read it because its do boring god it feed weird the whole atmosphere of the manga really right now I'm on chp22 and I really hope this right now boring CRAP gets better .... wow that was my comment 2days ago . . .my opinion has totally changed thankfully it picked up and yeah it is overatted but still a good manga but man some heavy smokers lol .
This is an amazing shoujo! Amazing art, a unique storyline, mystery, and the cliches of every single shoujo ever made! But it's NOT like every other shoujo! It's main characters aren't weaklings with horrible chemistry, they go great together. They don't just throw themselves into the romance, they get there gradually, all the while acting as unsure about it as real people. The cute little moments they share are enough to tide anyone over until the next little moe moment. I really suggest reading this! I've read it at least twice so far, despite the fact it isn't over yet LOL!
Really, I can't wait for the next. Although, in my country, volumes 7 have been published and I'm waiting for volumes 8. I thought that I could see in the internet for the next chapter but I guess I wrong The ending from volume 7 has made me anxious about what will happen in next volume! The author has made me laugh all time with all the mangas she created! And I was just found that she is a girl o_O
I misjudged the manga at first. But now once I've started to read it, it is really good. There is so much to unveil, and so far, it never crosses the line of "overly cute". The feelings are genuine and realistic. The main girl is strong and sensible--something that MOST shoujo heroines tend to lack. And she's kind.
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
Just read the most recent chapters, and I just cried. I just feel that things will take a turn even after she knows the truth. They just need each other. It is such a pure love between the two, and I definitely am looking forward to reading more
Why love this? Because of it's story (you will not find over-exessive drama here, nor stupid girly lead, not even unrealistic situation with lots of consiquences - although it a shoujo!), it's characters (very likable and sympathetic), it's comedy (never fail to laugh my a s off), it's art and it's pace.
Winning over almost everything, a bit more "mature" (well not quite) read. Simple beautiful.
OK, so it's been around a year since I started reading "Dengeki daisy" and now I've read up to vol 8, so I think it's time I wrote a proper review about the series.
First thing, I have to admit I was attracted to the "romance" and typical shoujo stuff at the beginning of the story (well I'm a girl after all and it's not like I can forever abandon shoujo even if I've matured out of the "shoujo period" a girl has to go through at some time in her otaku life). AND Kyousuke-sensei also stated that this series was supposed to be a 3-chapter publication at 1st, so it certainly couldn't really have a serious plot or characters development. That's why you might feel like it's a bit cliché if you've only read a few beginning chapters. This is probably the reason a lot of people found the manga "cliché and boring" and decided to quit it (they're really retared impatient IDIOTS).
However, as you can see, right now there've been 9 vols published and the manga's one of the highest-rating series in all manga sites and all manga genres. To put it that far, it's undeniable that the author had definitely managed to create sth special, or at least sth that would interest readers, or else it would be another shoujo-failure right away.
I'm not saying ALL of you out there agree with this, but come on, let's face it, this series is mind-blowing and I have to say the story's actually quite deep while not being too dark or angsty. Right now I'm at vol 8 where the characters' pasts have been unveiled and I realize all the details that have been mentioned in earlier volumes actually have meanings behind them and they connect logically to the story later on. Nothing's unnecessary and everything's all well-put.
The art isn't bad, and in fact it's quite nice, although not too superb or eye-catching, but somehow I feel it gives the story a depth that way, as the characters are real people and nothing's too fake or affected like many other shoujo mangas.
All in all, in my opinion, this is sth different (well not at 1st but you gotta be patient, come on) and I thoroughly enjoy reading till now. You should DEFINITELY give it a try it and decide if you like it or not later.
Dengeki Daisy, while being full of cliches that are so prevalent in Shoujo manga still manages to maintain its cuteness and the aww.. moments. The plot is interesting, the art is good but the humour can get repetitive at times. The story just drags in some places when the characters - especially Kurosaki - gets into angsty backstory mode. Also the manga seems to promote smoking. The main character is actually a chain smoker. Who would want to kiss someone who is smoking? Still, Teru is a breath of fresh air from the simpering manga heroines who can't seem to think for themselves. The plot is very unique for a shoujo. The hero while being depressed is not a total jerk. I say go for it if you have some time to waste.
