Hapi Mari isn't one of those romance mangas that are boring as hell. It's one were you see the ups and downs of a marriage. It isn't one of those that are over dramatized. It truly feels like how a marriage would be in real life. Chiwa may be an idiot but she tries her best in anything she does.

I might be biased, but first off, that art is pretty awesome and pretty. Don't tell me you didn't like the art, cause I sure did and I'm pretty picky when it comes to art when reading manga.
Then the sex fits into the story. That's what I like about Enjouji Maki's works. It's not like other smut manga I've read where they just slap on the sex wherever they decide to and not every chapter has sex in it.
And the humor in the story kinda cancels out the drama. It's a perfect balance, from how I see it.
I've actually read all her works in one night and it was all awesome. Any work from Enjouji Maki, I'd recommend to those who kinda like cliches but not really cliches... The ones where the overview of the story is a cliche but how she gets you there isn't.
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
And about Hokuto slapping Chiwa... Well, what Enjouji Maki is trying to portray here is reality. You can't have Chiwa just slap Hokuto and him not be able to. I mean, just because this is shoujo doesn't mean she can't make Hokuto do that. She's trying to tell a story here and well, stories are based off of life so there. I was actually surprised when Hokuto first slapped Chiwa (LOL too much slapping here jk. I think Hokuto slaps her two times...) but then, I'm not mad. I mean, it just goes to show that a guy can hit a girl. It happens in real life, we can't ignore that.
Next off... It was dramatic with all the mystery with Hokuto's family background, but hey, it's not like orphans don't exist. But I hate his family, nuff said. So annoying, and I was expecting him to be the head of the company by the end of the manga but hey, Enjouji-sensei gave us a middle ground. He left the company but he decided to make his own company and have his wife work with him.

So he slapped her, for being dumb........ I get a slap to the ass when Im dumb, but thats just the way my Husband is. When hes dumb I smack him to.... Its not abuse, its discipline. Anyway its a great manga I really wish Viz would get a hold of it.

since Hokuto slaped Chiwa. I mean, this a shoujo manga! what's the point? make girls understand that if they are being annoying you husband can slap you? that's just wrong, really. And If it wasn't like she was doing something so terrible, like you'd say "well, she was a bitch and that slap was rightful" nah, it was something along the lines :"get yourself woman", and maybe I'm overreacting, but I can't really support a manga where a poor young wife gets slaped for such thing, while she isn't anything but supporting of her husband, where it's suppoused to be about love, being together, and other random shoujo manga thing.
One thing is the whole 'I don't want to have sex-but-I want in the end'/Dub-Con in some shoujo mangas, and other thing is Domestic Violence.

As many before me said this manga started so well and it lasted till maybe 20-something chapter.After that it became repetitive and for me personally boring.
I love how relationship between Chiwa and Hokuto developed and i loved their fights but i think some were unecessary.Chiwa at start was really awesome and she did alot of things for Hokuto.Its funny how at start she believed him when he said he wont cheat but later on doubted him all the time.In the latest chapters she kept crying and doubting him which was annoying me so much i wanted to slap her...so yeah,i also think that Hokuto didnt do anything wrong when he slaped her twice.Just like she did to him because of words he said,she deserved it for what she said to him.Now i dont support violence but you cant put what happened here to that folder.And anyway when we women are so up on being equal in everything,why cant man slap a woman when she hurts him?
One more thing,in latest chapters it felt like Hokuto apologized too much.
Now about art i adore,clean and big,not confusing
Oh and about sex...for me it blended nicely into story,it was sweet and at moments hot XD
All in all it was fun read and i recommend to people who like bit of comedy and romance with some sex scenes mixed in

At first it was funny stupid shoujo with banal plot twists (including multiple faints and even kidnapping) but then it got worse. It has rape, yes! YES! Every time they have sex male character hurts Chiwa (main female character) and never stops, he even

violently rape her being drunk - Jee, i'm so mad! Also, he controls her, follows her, telling her that things like "you are mine", "you belong to me" etc etc which is typical abusive behavior, she depends on him 'cause this is prearranged marriage and it makes it even worse. Even though, abusive male characters are typical for manga (not that i like it, this is just how it is) but RAPE shown as love is just UNBELIEVABLE, I hate it.
Do not recommend.
