Didn't make me want to go out and buy it

The way I can tell rather or not a Shoujo merits a high score is rather or not it makes me want to go out and buy it. This was not one of those. Nothing new, here. The art is well done but so what? I was disappointed.

will it was a nice though i prefer to see more coupling in mangas then only a few. i don't like how many that like the main characters dont a partner will this happens in many manga but the ending i think was a bit too fast i wanted 2-3 more chapters like what was Izumi doing the the time hew was missing. anyway it was a great manga until the ending.
Great start...

The start was fairly interesting and the characters weren't too shoddy. Even though the premise was rather cliched, I still didn't mind reading the manga for the plot development, character interactions and even the tension between the main and supporting cast. The jokes were kinda all right(a mixture of funny and duh) and it sure was funny seeing the way Hikaru behaved at the beginning of the story.
However, I was a little disappointed.

Spoiler (highlight to view)
Not only was the Hikaru's and the teacher's romance cut short abruptly without any warning whatsoever, there was little tension when they were briefly reunited. Too much "staring at one another's face" and not enough words/narration(whichever does the job).
Also, the ending was a let down. Well, I hadn't expected anything innovative but it was too abrupt and not very satisfactory. Not once had Izumi ever mentioned wanting to study architecture and it was a huge letdown given how much the kid had invested in hospital fees, only to let his father die on him. Plus, the endings for the side cast(the Kazu something guy and his companion) and the others weren't satisfying either.

I feel sooo sorry for Hikaru... All that harrassment and bullying - paranoyed all-girls school.
I don't like her absession with that music sensei...
Oh.well... so far(till v3) it was interesting...
----
I don't know who did it, but thanks for a fast scanlation... I was so surprised to see so many chapters at once. Yay!

one thing that's driving me to post a comment is a gratitude for a good read...
it was a good read for passing time... i won't forget this..
after reading it, you'll just find your way grateful taking the time and ending it with a speechless smile--like saying, "I had a really GREAT time."
anyway, i think smiles don't need speeches--"sup wida 'speechless smile'?" haha
I RECOMMEND YOU READ THIS. you'll find your way smiling at the end.
yeah that's it!! after reading the comment down there...i found the right word.."HEARTWARMING"

This story was great except for one part which is probably my personal opinion.....i like the main male leads to be MANLY(hehe), by that i mean to have a role in which it can allow for the heroine to act girly at times.
so - so

yeah, so - so, this is how I felt during reading it. there is nothing very special about it but reading it was kind of fun.
Edit: just finished the whole story. what a ending, made me feel stupid. so cliche that it was hard to hide your disappointment.

The series ended and I have that feeling that there's so much missing... unsettled to tell the truth... as if this series had to end abruptly... The ending wasn't convincing at all, which makes me fell mad about it. Although the main plot isn't quite original, I started to like the main couple... but "DUH!" Their relationship wasn't well developed at all! ...and what about the story with the sensei? No comments... and since when Takabayashi wanted so much to become an actress? At least if the secrets about her childhood could've been better explored... it would make the plot better and gives us that feeling that it was fate, they were meant to be.
I'm not trying to be harsh here but... this was a series that had everything to become............... but never became!
Nah! It was quite entertaining since I sprained my foot and I have to stay home for a week... at least I forgot the pain for a while.
At least, thanks to Molenir comparing the awesome Skip Beat! to Never Give Up! made me feel curious about it and now I think I'll give it a try... ^__^'

it was actually really good and i enjoyed it
the characters were awesome. i really liked how the relationship between the two characters progressed.
but what really dissapointed was the ending...i felt it was so rushed and it was just another crappy ending to a good story.

I love Shigematsu-sensei's work on this manga.
Aghhh, anyways, I'm no good at explaining how much I adore this series.
Read or die. =D
