Wait, a shoujo-ai which actually shows a relationship go beyond graduation?!

The title pretty much shows my feelings about this manga haha. I loved it. Something I often find in GL is that the girls almost never go past kissing (and even then, it's usually just a quick peck), and that it's usually set in all-girl schools where the girls seem more infatuated with the idea of love, and make me think of LUGs (lesbians until graduation). This is mostly likely because of Japan's homophobic view on lesbian relationships (basically, that it's okay for girls to go out in school in an all-girl environment, but only so as to use it as 'practice' of sorts until they graduate and find a man). This is of course, when they're not one of those ecchi-type yuri mangas written for straight men.

This manga is not one of them. Hell, the whole LUG thing even comes, as the couple is told that they'll only be together until they graduate. They prove them wrong, however, by remaining as a couple well past their school years. As a lesbian, I was really happy to see that, as well as see the issues discussed in it.

TL;DR: a sweet story about a couple who stay together past highschool. Must read, for sure!

A quick ten-chapter affair, this story may be short but it has a lot of heart to it. Most of the early manga is mostly the cute setup of the couple with a bit of drama scattered throughout, while the second half kind of reverses that balance. They actually touch on some issues that other yuri manga gloss over, like the fact that society is pressuring them to break up again after graduation. I don't think they take this quite far enough (they never talk to either of their parents for example) but it's good that they at least discuss it. The ending was good and the main couple was fun, I think this was a fine read.

I enjoyed the 1st 7 or 8 chapters. In the last few chapters one of the girls just stared ignoring the other and it really gave no explantion except that she was busy. It just went against all the character developement up until that point. it was a sweet manga up until this point but then all the sweetness got flushed down the toilet. I get so tired of manga characters doing odd ball type things just to move the plot into a certain direction.

A treasure

As a bisexual woman, for some reason it's really hard for me to find Girls Love that is enjoyable, has chemistry between the love interests, good art, etc. It's like they're either written for men, or the art and character design just looks ugly and unappealing, or something feels off, or the author didn't put any thought into what it's like to feel attracted to a woman (and I think that explains why it's easier for female authors to write yaoi than yuri). This lack of understanding of sapphic attraction explains the bad writing, bad plots and bad character design too, it's a lack of thought.

Anyways, THIS manga is enjoyable and has that chemistry even though it was the author's first try writing GL. Maybe that's precisely why she put more thought into the characters than most. There's a non-explicit sex scene that is hotter than most explicit sex scenes, it just looks hot and poetic at the same time, simply because you can feel the craving even though nothing is shown.

I paused at the point that

Miyamoto cried for sooooo looooooong

This manga is awesome. I love the art style cuz I hate all of those josei with small cute mouths. The plot is not something exceptional but I think it's well-done.

If you've read my previous and rather crucially harsh comment/criticism, then please do refrain from agreeing with it any longer.
I've read chapter 2 and have finally seen what this manga is supposed to be all about.
From what I heard, this series won't be a long one, so I guess it's understanding that they'd rush the main couple a tad bit too early into the story, BUT, must I say, I think it's rather the depth of its fluffy and cute shoujo-ai love that makes this series a rather enjoyable and adorable one to read.
Like I mentioned in my old comment (from which I have edited with this one entirely so that I may hide all its negative insights), this is practically my first shoujo-ai, so obviously it would turn me off a bit if something typical happened so early in a short series. But like I also mentioned before, I have to read the chapters after the first one in order to confirm where this story is going.
I won't spoil it for anyone; in fact, I'll only say one thing. But a long one statement.
This manga may not be the best shoujo-ai out there, but it sure is one of those manga you come across to read just to relieve your mind a bit with some sensational tender sweetness. It's fluffy and somewhat realistic in a sort-of youthful way... Well, maybe I'm going too far, but indeed it's something worth reading to release some fresh air. It's not too typical in a sense with how the manga flows. It has its deep moments and has its cliche here and there (not a lot of cliches though in my opinion), but not as often as any other typical manga.
Well, it's only been two chapters, so maybe I'm overreacting, but from my five years of experience in reading manga, I'm pretty sure I know how a manga is going to turn out in the end, as from what I heard it's only ten chapters.
Give it some thought and go check out its first two chapters. It's worth reading since it's slower paced as you read onto the second chapter. It may seem typical in the first chapter (well maybe that's just me... I'm a newbie with shoujo-ai, forgive me...), but it's not so bad after that.
This might turn out to be my all-time favourite shoujo-ai for a first take at it.
Well, let's wait and see.
