Hatatose no Engage is what I consider Hiromi Mashiba's best work.
The story is about a girl who always waits for the guy she met in her past. That guy had promised to come back to her when she was 20 to propose her. The girl never lost her faith on her first love, but when she was 19, she went out with a famous, laid back actor. Just when she developed feelings with him, her first love came back.
...and wait for the sweetest plot twist in the ending. This manga also offers one of the best proposal scene I've ever read/watched.
Artwork wise may not be too appealing. Perhaps because this was created in early 90's. But I personally think that Hiromi Mashiba's artwork is too simplistic and 'sheer' sometimes.
I could always praise the way she did panels and portrayed emotions through her drawing though.
I seriously read a great deal of shoujo manga, but I consider this manga to be one of the classic, sweetest romance manga ever.
