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.

One of the Best

Cute, funny and refreshing. This one's a must read if you're looking for a lighthearted but romantic read. This is one of the finest among the tons of shoujo manga you'll ever come across with. A strong lead girl (literally) with strong and passionate personality and a lead man that won't disappoint your platonic fantasies. biggrin 10/10 for plot and 9.5/10 for art.

I thought the very beginning was sweet, although it's pretty obvious that Haruna is going to end up with Yoh in the end. The relationship between Haruna and Fumi in the beginning was one of the things that was exciting and realistic about this manga. the rest is actually just monotone and normal you can say that too much sugar is added to this manga, no serious drama nor threats I thought the appearance of Yoh's ex should excite things a bit but I was disappointed with the results *sigh. You can predict what is going to happen and I think the manga is waaayy too long. My favorite part was when Yoh said, "I'll try getting catched.." or something like that, I dont like how in the later chapter Yoh get's too sensitive and easy I think it's unrealistic should make him more of a challenge. Also, they should've shown more about how Yoh can read Haruna like a book in the later chapters because I thought that fact was really cute smile

But I recommend this manga to be red but probably only up till the 6-7th volume. Because I sure didn't finish it

One of the best shoujo manga I had ever read. The plot is well done and has funny parts as well as touching parts. The art is well done too. It's kind sad that it ended. It could continue for more time.

THE BEST....at first

I've never encountered a character like Haruna--optimistic and a bit naive, but not ridiculously stupid. I like her "Try my best!" motto~ it shows that she does more than merely sit there, helplessly crying about no love and stuff. (Like other shoujo manga characters...no offense.)

The plot was original. Nothing repeated pointlessly a gazillion times.

And so, I'm rating the plot and characters up to volume 6. I began volume 7+ and it's totally absurd. Yoh starts mooching guys?? I skipped to the ending and why does Yoh look like he gained 50 pounds? (JUST to his cheeks!? o-O) He looks like he's balding too... what happened to his thick hair?
The plot turned crazy.... And I'm not sure if I'm ever gonna read past vol6. :/ At least the beginning was really good! smile

End of Series

I liked this manga because it had a very nice story. The characters were realistic, not artificial like in some other shoujo manga. The series is focused on romance, but a sweet innocent way. The main character isn't desperate for the attention of one guy who hates/ignores her for the whole series until the magical ending.

I recommend this series for those who think they have lost hope in shoujo (because after you read lots of them you realize that most of them are similar and revolve around one girl chasing said guy). This is a nice light read with some very funny parts (although Haruna does get paranoid at times, lol).

The artwork was original, which is also good. It could have been better, but the story makes up for it. The ending was also good. Although I will say that Asami gets really annoying at some parts.

Recommended.

Farewell Haruna and Yoh!!!

Awww... I've just finished reading, so I'm leaving this "Farewell Comment".

I read this manga for a year and I've collected some pretty memories while following it up. I have this gloomy feeling when something reaches it's ends... because, since it's over, I won't see Yoh and Haruna's faces again, nor their friends as well, who did a great job keeping them together till the end. But I'm glad I could follow it till the end... and the mangaka didn't let me down.

I've ended up reading the whole series again to read the last few scanlated chapters. I feel as if I've passed through all those situations with Haruna and Yoh. I loved the last speech, when she remembered all the best arcs of the series, I've recalled some great parts of it. The light jokes and even the heavy feelings that made me fall in love with this couple. Haruna's always-cheerful personality and the the so-grounded-and-cool Yoh.

I wish I could thank the mangaka properly for providing such an enjoyable... no, Memorable series. I like it from the beginning till the end. There's no part I would cut or change, because when we like someone or something, we have to cherish in in it's own plenitude.

I'll buy the series as soon as it's available in my country... because it's worth the prize... and also to "thank the mangaka" properly! lol

And with that, there's one more thing I want to say to the young and naive Haruna:
"Yeah... Love come to those who believe it... and that's the way it is."

...Koukou Debut, I'll miss you.

SUPER good! even though the things happen slow... i still think each part is interesting, funny and something to look up to. This is one of the BESTS. the protagonists are both worth loving. I just can't help talking about this to my friends. and at first touch of their eyes at it... now we're all hooked up. i don't know how to deviate my attention to other matters when i was reading this. my studies! gosh! i've gotta manage! I'm just too LUCKY to have known this exists! thanks!
