I saw this anime when it aired last year, I absolutely loved it, so you can imagine how happy and how much I bounced around when I heard that Kodansha would publish the manga in English!

And now it is here, and I can honestly say, the anime did a great job. The manga pretty much is the same as the anime, but it is still enjoyable and fun.

I love Mei, she is a cute character, though I think it is a shame that she gave up on friends and such, never tried it again. Though I know the feeling, girls can be very mean towards each other. If you have too much boobs they will bitch at you, if you are a bit too tame they will run over you or use you. But I am happy that she met Yamato, and that he is there for her and led her to a life with more happiness and fun.
I also love how kick-ass at times she was. Defending her new friends? Roundhouse kicking Yamato? Awesome girl. :)

Yamato, ah, Yamato. Sorry, fangirling here. I absolutely love him. He has a lot to learn about girls, but I think so far he is doing an excellent job, and he is really sweet with Mei. I love how defensive he is about his friends or people he cares about.

Then we have the romance, ah, swoon. I loved it, there is a big amount of kisses and romantic moments and I cannot wait to see how this will continue and grow. I cannot wait for the moment that Mei will speak those words: "I love you." to Yamato. :)

The art-style is at times a bit weird (stick people or chibified people), but at most times the art is gorgeous, I love the big eyes of the girls and I love how the characters are drawn.

I pre-ordered book 2 to 4 and will also continue pre-ordering and reading this manga. And I would really recommend it to everyone who needs some romance and comedy in their lives.

En realidad me he leído todos los tomos que han sacado en inglés, pero puntúo uno porque no quiero llenar mi Goodreads ni contarlo como 14 libros; no sabría decir qué pasó en un tomo ni qué en otro.

Me han gustado mucho y son muy tiernos. El dibujo es muy bonito y agradable a la vista, y me ha enamorado tanto o más que la serie.

The start was really rough. I was kind of wondering why I decided to reread this (read and watched this in my early teens).

Everyone just seemed infuriating and hormonal, but by the middle I started to enjoy the book a lot more ‘cus the characters got fleshed out from their one-dimensional personas.

I don’t know if I’d recommend. It was entertaining at the very least.
