I like the whole atmosphere of this manga; it reminds me of Obereru Knife in a way. The story flows well, and all the characters have interesting back stories that have yet to be fully revealed. But oh no, if she ends up with Ono! (excuse my lame pun) I love the comment before me who labeled Ono as "Mr. Smooth Operator" ahaha I was loling at that for a while. As a girl, Ono is definitely the attractive, mysterious, bad boy guy we kind of all want just a little bit, but he's definitely trouble! I hope someone picks this manga up, because I am ready for more! Thanks scanlators for doing this much so far!
Iketani sensei's drawings are much more attractive than in Six Half. As usual, she pulls off a suspenseful plot that pulls you in with it's mysterious, yet believable characters. She writes suspense very well, so be sure to have time on your hands before reading it. The story does deal with some mature themes, though, so if you're looking for a fluffy shoujo, search elsewhere. Great story so far, anyways! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a realistic and thoughtful manga.
The heroine is down-to-earth, open, intelligent, and confident in herself without being conceited. She's really very likable...but I really haven't grown to like any of the other characters. In fact, as time goes by, I seem to like them less and less. They are all very selfish (especially her parents) and none of them think of how their actions affect her or anyone else. The art is good, and the plot is interesting, but I really hope to see some good in some of the characters in furture chapters.
I came upon this by luck and decided to read it because of the beautiful cover (of Madoka and Tomoyo). I hesitated at first because the artwork wasn't very good (I'm very picky on the art), but I kept reading because I was so hooked into the story. It's really unique and funny. And the art is actually pretty beautiful. Totally worth your time! I usually dislike it when the female is older than the guy, but this is an exception ^^. The heroine is really strong (not in the way you would think so) and admirable... and not the type of girl who fusses about their looks or not having a boyfriend. If you're looking for something refreshing, new, funny, and cute, read this!!
Please update this faster ;w; I'm dying from the lack of non-cliche shoujo mangas..

This was definitely a mature shoujo and I wasn't feeling it. I thought the first volume was promising, but the rest of it was just endless frustration. It just got worse and worse as the story continued.
This enraged me. Nothing makes me angrier than
This gets 3 pity points from me. One for competent art. Another for a heroine that isn't a doormat. And another because I actually managed to finish it.
I hope I can avoid stories like this in the future.

characters that stray romantically. And this manga was full of that. I wanted sunshine and rainbows. Instead I got the urge to punch. UGHHH.
At first, I wanted to punch Ono. He was scum.
Then I wanted to punch Madoka.
Then I wanted to beat the daylights out of Tomoyo. (BOY, WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH YOUR DANG BRAIN AFTER THE TIME SKIP?!?)
Then I just wanted to smash all of the characters in sight. Madoka's stupid Dad, Madoka's gossiping friends, Tomoyo's uppity mom, that one wavy haired girl whose purpose was only to be a hindrance to love. No one was safe from my ire. They seriously angered me. I don't think I've been this angry reading manga in a long time.
If you asked me: "would you rather:
A) Read a frustrating story with a happy ending, or
B) Read a fun story with a frustrating ending,"
I now know that my answer is 100% B. This story fell into category A and it drove me insane.

A shoujo demographic manga that reads very much like a good josei. It deals with many mature themes, such as "breaks" in married life, loneliness, infatuation vs. having true comfort and friendship in a relationship, estrangement, as well as some psychological issues. Throughout all this, the overwhelming feeling this manga gives off is one of tenderness and warmth. It goes straight to the heart without much funfair or cutesy scenes. In short, it feels real. I heartily recommend it, especially if you are bored of reading the same old, same old high school stories.
I like Tomoyo and Madoka's relationship. It's just beautiful for me (I'm not bothered by the age gap at all, it isn't that big to begin with) I rly hope they don't break up or anything coz there are so many things going on in the series and it's kind of hard to keep up. Sometimes I stop and think "What is going on??" But I honestly don't mind where the series is heading just as long as Madoka doesn't end up with Ono.
I like the art. Somehow, manga with similar art like Bitou Lollipop always seemed to have a good story plot.

It started out very good, the characters were really well written however the translation is lacking and was confusing sometimes.

It truly is a good manga, couldn't wait until the last chapters come out so ended up buying it in Japanese online. It was a lot more sad than I thought it would be since I was specifically looking for happy mangas with no drama and definitely not a tragedy, turns out there was definitely drama and there was a lot of parts that made my heart ache a lot. I should have checked the labels on the reading site, because on Mangapark it definitely says that there's drama, but it didn't say it here, so that was a bit stupid of me since I can't handle painful drama… :s
The transition from volume 5 to volume 6 was super confusing (I can't read Japanese) and I quite hated the two last books because it was just too much broken hearts and pain. But the ending is relatively happy, I'm just happy she ended up with Tomoyo, otherwise it would have killed me. But it was too much sadness before they actually ends up together, and that has really torn me apart.
Loved the funny parts, but couldn't take the sad ones. A great manga but not a manga for me.

The lead character are always being bipassed by the other characters... Her opinion seems so unecessary but what makes it lovable is that even though everyone treats her like that she's still strong, i can say a very realistic character (compared to other mangas), the characters are 4D to (readers can relate) AND! the guy (who's younger than her) loves her despite all that AND respects her xD
.... I guess thats what makes this manga unique... The guy is just amazing and the heroine is not annoying (^_^)
