Meh

Even though I'm only on the third chaper, I find myself able to relate to the lead female. So I understand why she acts the way she does and so on. I find myself doing the same. Even though for her some may yell at her for acting the way she does with Youta I think I know why. It's easier to act carefree with someone you don't have intimate feelings for but hard with the one you like. If you're the kind of person who reads a manga based on art (I do that sometimes too) More often than not you will stumble on beautiful artwork with a crappy storyline and average (or below) artwork with excellent plot. I like this story even though it's not a 10/10 for me but it's decent.

These trends in shoujo manga need to be burned, shot, and spit on.

There is always the boring distinction of 'this' or 'that'. Theres never anything in between. Ari is a prodigy at playing the piano. Stereotypical nice playboy is a pro at singing. The love at first sight thing is trash too. And the characters look like bugs. Actually, that's my main problem.

I'm all but 10% immune to typical shoujo's usual lame antics.

I've never really payed attention to the subtle differences in characters eyes, but for some reason, I kept focusing on their horribly proportioned eyes in this manga. Even the classic 'eyes closed' smile was screwed up. One eye was always bigger then the other or a pupil was always faced the wrong way....making them look cross eyed.

His earrings make him look even lamer then he looks now. (Friggen eyes....)
