I read many mangas and was a bit dissappointed that it was only 2 volumes. I was looking forward to the whole thing too...the main character has a blend of many characters like torou in fruit basket.
It was worth reading though, not to mention the sweet comedy as well.

this one is a funny story not much romance,
but thtat's fine because if she didn't end up with the guy I liked I'd be kinda sad. x(!
(I liked the brother in the middle)
lol the way the younger and the middle brother joke were so funny.

From 2010:
The first time I came across this manga (incomplete) it caught my eye. I thought it would be another 'Fruits Basket', excluding all those animal stuff. When it did finally ended, I was sad that this story only lasted 2 volumes. But still, I've been re-reading this manga for more than 5 times, but it still never fails to make me laugh. I recommended it to many of my classmates, and all of them fall in love it. That just says how wonderful this manga is.
I'd have to admit, it was kind of sad that the story ended without showing who ended up with Ruu, but still I guess it's difficult to choose between 3 guys who treat her equally well.
But I would love a sequel. A 3-5 volumes would be great for me ><.
From 2017:
It's been 7 years since I last visited this website and this manga. 7 years older, this manga has lost a bit of its charm as compared to when I was 7 years younger. However, I will still give it a 10/10 over and over again, simply because it had been a happy paradise for me.

Omg, I lovee this series waay too much. It gave me so many big laughs and it's just too funny. I'm glad that she didn't really end up with any of them, since it was such a hard choice choosing. The youngest brother is definitely funny and cute, and I just love it so much. The author could have made the ending a little bit more interesting but I guess it's alright. If you want something romantic and funny, this is something for you. The drawing is very amazing, and man, I can't explain how much the story made me laugh, it was just too much. I can't stop reading it, hahaha 
This one starts decently enough if you can ignore how unlikely it is that three rich boys are going to first hire a poor girl to work for them then essentially unofficially adopt her into their family. The general premise is hardly unique, but it feels like the mangaka got bored with it and rushed it to an ending just to get it over with.
I really liked this story but the ending was horrible............
At first I thought there was a chapter missing or that it was incomplete, but I guess not. I still liked the series because of the comedy and artwork so if you don't mind a sort of open ending then I would say that this is a good manga to pass the time.

This manga is okay, with nice art and everything. I read it because I thought there'll be romance in it like .. you know, having a nice pair of couple at the end. In the end, the romance was pretty light and like the others had mentioned, the ending wasn't really good.. the whole climax just "droooooopppp" and placed a full stop at the final chapter. Kind of sad.. it'll be better if this manga goes out to more than 2 volumes...
Overall, This manga is a nice light read for those who enjoys comedies in manga. It's much recommended to people who likes extreme light romances and comedy.

Note: Romance isn't really the main part of the story. So, don't expect too much from it.

sigh, i'm so sad that there's no pairings in the end .. and the girl doesn't seemed to have any romantic feelings for any of the three guys (she seemed to look at them as her family or something) I thought it'll be a solid romance story x(((( wuuuuu.
so much as to having a good time...! i'll have to admit it gave a really similar feel to fruits basket, really. but what makes it more funny is the perverted idiot character of the uhh... can't remember the name pretty well..ahahaha
one guy i won't ever forget is yuzuki. he's just a well-blended person of opposites. you see, a rude guy from what he looks but superiorly feminine and really nice..in a rude way, too. i was thinking how the mangaka was able to choose the feminine features as a complement to his traits... phew!! pretty hard to blend them but the mangaka did well!

Okay, I really, really liked this manga - it made me laugh a lot! But the ending just kind of...killed it for me.
I just felt that this manga had so much potential, and then the mangaka just...dropped it. The characters never got fully developed, the plot never really ended, and so on. This could have been really great, but eight chapters just wasn't enough, especially with the 'ending' given.
But, if you don't mind dealing with that, I'd reccomend this highly because it is extremely funny, good for an hour or two of just laughing ;P

There was no real relationship developed, although Ruu and Yuzuki were kind of hinted at, and her father never paid off his debt. Actually, the second-to-last chapter felt like more of an ending then the actual final chapter did.

The story and characters reminded me of Fruits Basket, and the ending left the relationships pretty open...
That being said, the art was really pretty, and there was some character growth/development. A nice read if you want something short and light.
