And there you have it: after switching magazine it became duller and duller (saved only by Amachi Hitsugi) to the point that the author doesn't really know what to throw in anymore to keep the series going.
Also, while turning page after page I could hear the author screaming "Own, come oooon! let me draw some girls about to make out and/or throwing each other love/hate/whatever-as-long-as-they-interact-with-passion glances!! Pllleaaase!! ", but they won't let her like in the first volumes and she has to come up with shonen moves and tired humor.

Sometimes dramatic without being too serious, sometimes funny - a nice combination.
Hayashiya-sensei is especially good in creating new side-characters for the side-stories.
They all have special character traits and unique motivations which makes the school feel more 'alive' than in other Mangas, where side-characters are just single-use NPCs.

the action scenes are stupid, i mean it was funny and ok at the beginning but then it got too much overdramatic. I personally did not like the main character at all. Shez too much of a goody good and way too nice and trusting. Her stupidity was just nauseating really.
This is, simply, action-manga crack with GL undertones. Or overtones. I never really got the difference. Anyway, it's an awesome manga, if you get Hayashiya Shizuru's sense of humor. Otherwise, I guess it would seem stupid.
I personally love it.
