Description
Sana Kurata, a child actress, faces many problems in her classroom, including a major one - her bullying classmate, Akito Hayama. Sana's outgoing and friendly nature leads her to work towards correcting all of the problems around her. Her 'meddling' irritates Hayama but at the same time captivates him, just as Hayama's gloomy nature irritates Sana and compels her to change him. As these two opposites attract each other, they face many hardships which bring them closer to a mutual understanding.

I am a whole-hearted fan of this manga. The anime just wasn't as fufilling as the manga.
So, basically manga=<3, anime=</3

cute artwork, funny, overall great read!
i really liked this manga, and i thought that the anime was quite disappointing though. it had WAY too many episodes, and it didnt even get to the ending in the manga! i hate it wen the animes ending is just somewhere in the middle of the manga
I thought a manga with elementary-aged kids would be too simplistic...and yea, I was wrong. Little kids can have deep feelings making this a very nice shoujo manga. It has adults as well and they have to work with each other to overcome their problems. It's great coming-of-age story you have got to read!
i think this was one of my first mangas that i've read, and i loved this story. it can be hilarious at one point, and you can be crying in another. (depends on how emotional you are) for me, some parts were real tear-jerkers, but the overall story was very entertaining
Story: 4.5/5
Art: 4/5
I put off reading this because I thought a story about elementary school kids would be boring but I'm glad I was very wrong! What makes this manga stand out is the story and its characters. The character development and story-telling are all very well done.

You havn't read this? In my mind its almost a manga staple... one of those things you read when you just get started reading manga, because everyone hands you their old copies. Its good. Its classic, traditional, shoujo. Heartwarming and twinging, and lots of omg moments. Its always just out of believeable range, but still loveable.
