Ok, so we have Misaki, a hardworking tsundere who all of a sudden gets all of the attention from a super-perfect-hot guy? Really, Usui is super perfect. He's hot, he's smart, and he's strong. Of course, he has ~family problems~ just like Kei Takishima. Usui is so unreal its almost ridiculous. And this manga is like Special A, although Special is better. This manga is a bit more enjoyable though, because you really get attached to Usui, and it has funny scenes to go with it.
Misaki annoys me so much. To the point where I can't enjoy this manga because of how idiotic she's being. She's smart academically, but can't cook. Cmon. I think she could cook, a BIT cuz what the hell, she's at the top of the grades with the exception of Usui! I really hate how she doesn't open up to Usui 99% of the time. But if she did, well we'd have no story. If she did open up to him, she'd probably another typical shoujo heroine. But the fact Misaki is constantly saved my Usui really pisses me off, because since she's independent she could probably prevent it.
So I gotta say, this manga is great for shoujo lovers. The guy's hot, the art is cute, and it's a manga where you'll want to put yourself inside, and be Misaki. When I first watched the anime, I really wanted to be Misaki. CUZ OF USUI D; ughhh even if he's unreal I really like him. It's just that the manga itself is a bit too unrealistic. With Usui, and the whole hinata-childhood friend concept; I mean CHILDHOOD FRIENDS? How more cliche can you get? The fact that Hinata finds Misaki is very unreal. POPULAR MALE LEAD? TSUNDERE? POSSESSIVE LOVER? MAIDS?! idk, but too me, it seems very unreal.
What pisses me off the most is how the mangaka leaves some scenes out. At first it's like, OK I wonder what happens after that...Maybe if I read more it will tell me...ahaha. no. Like the time when Usui and Misaki hug? What happens after that? There are many more, where scenes seem to just be left out.
Another thing that pisses me off; it seems like Misaki totally forgets that Usui kissed her. I mean, she remembered the stupid hug when looking at him the next day, but she forgets that Usui kissed her?! If i was her, I would remember the kiss everytime I see Usui. Plus, she seems totally casual with him after they kissed like twice, like the time when Hinata and Usui is over at her house. Its like, WHAT THE HELL?! THERE IS SOMETHING ROMANTICALLY HUGE GOING ON BETWEEN YOU TWO, AND YOU'RE JUST SITTING AROUND?! ughh....it pisses me off sorry ;_;
I recommend this to all shoujo-lovers, cuz it is enjoyable sometimes. It's kinda sucks you in, and you want to keep reading because it is interesting, and the events go pretty fast.
It's not my cup of tea in the morning though, but I gotta give props to Fujiwara Hiro, she's good. For the first manga she's every written, its really great. She really is a great rookie.
