But now that she's going to high school, Haruna decides to put all of her energy towards getting a boyfriend and having the high school romance of a lifetime.

i don't know how to explain it, this is not the first time i have read some mangas like this. But you know, i'd enjoyed this manga so much. Oh, my, i love the female lead character. She's so dense, simple minded, but she has a big heart and great personality. She cares people a lot, hard worker, determined and earnest. She don't even know how to lied, hahahaha And more importantly, she isn't like any of female character in those cliche shoujo mangas, annoying, fractious and weak, :/ And the male lead? He just too cool, Huwaaaa.. >.< and cares a lot with his lover, i love him! They are really suit each other. I can see the perfect couple here #okey-it's-just-my-opinion
And the only problem is The male lead's younger sister.
Yeah, but overall, other than that, everything is good. I love the whole story, and can't wait for the side story or the prequel, #if-they-are-available

what they always said, a sweet devil, huh! she just a little bitch who only cares about herself. Makes herself as if she the most beautiful princess in the world, that should get the attention of anyone around her. It's pissed me off.

Though its kinda cliche that a high school girl just wants to have a boyfriend, the story make it new and interesting by making Haruna a sporty girl! Her character adds loads of fun in this story, and Yoh balance it out? They are really a very cute couple!! It's a very recommended series! =)
Interesting.

I liked it, especially how they became a couple pretty early on in the series so it focused more on their personal relationship. It was really funny and I liked both Haruna and Yoh very much.
Don't know if it's good enough to revisit in the future, but it's definitely one of those mangas people should read at least once. Give it a shot, it's brilliant!

The story was fine. Its not the best but its decent. The heroine was pretty different from your usual bishoujo like heroines, but the male lead.....its the usual. the popular guy. The art is pretty good and the story can be related to in some aspects. I wouldnt say its completely cliched but i have to tell you, it has the feeling as other stereotypical works. Well, thats I think.
Very good until about half way, then it becomes all right

I love this series, especially in the beginning. There is a lot of humor in the first several volumes, and I felt connected to Haruna's efforts. I have read the first volume a lot, simply because I physically own it. I love the simplicity and the romance and how Yoh helped Haruna and was drawn to her from the start. It was cute and happy-feeling.
The only problem I had was that towards the end (last couple of volumes or so), everything was dragged out. yes, some of the characters were getting ready to graduate, so that was a goal, but I felt as if though there was nothing left to hold the series up to the quality it had initially. One thing I was disappointed with was the fact that Haruna still stayed naive and silly. I liked that about her in the beginning, but I got tired of it after 10 volumes and so on. Also, I know this is trivial for the story, but I noticed the characters were drawn more young and child-faced in the later volumes. So to me, it looked liked Haruna was aging backwards and not maturing, despite finding love.
However, I plan on re-reading the series soon to refresh my perspective. Overall, this manga is strong and despite being cliche it presents itself well except towards the end where it falls a bit short.

At first when i read the description of this manga i didnt quite like it as i dont like things like " DONT FALL IN LOVE WITH ME" stuff. BUT i undersestimated tthis and learned a valuable lesson, which i have been taught several times (and sincelry hope that i dont do the same mistake again.) DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!!!!!!!! This was honestly one of the best mangas ever made! The art was cute!!!! The PLot was intense and just awesome. Love the character development andd characters! And the romance was WOW! HIGHLY RECCOMENEDED!!!!
Very unique story.

The one thing I liked about this story is the irony of of Yoh falling in love with Haruna when he tells her not to fall in love with him! The progress he's made with her, and he ends up falling for her.
It started promising...

The beginning of it was fresh and captivated me into reading more. The heroine was a unique character and the hero, mysterious and seemingly complex.
However, things went downhill (for me) when the story plot fell into the trap of a soapie-drama effect... (I'm not a big fan of soapies). My opinions pretty much echo JHax9999's comment.
However, if you love your dramas and the cliche sort of stories... then this would be the go for you.

Oh, god they're just the sweetest couple, and I love them to bits. Especially when they fight, 'cause we get to see them makeup.
*spoiler*
And when the boy kissed Haruna and she felt guilty, and Yoh kissed the guy to make everythingt seem better? Just THE sweetest thing ever... ^^
