REVIEW FOR THE WHOLE SERIES
I like the drawing style and the love story is pretty cute. It follows some pretty generic tropes but BE AWARE: it is not purely a romance series! It tackles some very serious traumas, in a quite delicate way too, which i do appreciate.
However, it is an old series, so I find that some of the ideologies pretty outdated and can be somewhat harmful(maybe?). But I can acknowledge that it is a product of its time, therefore, I'm willing to overlook certain aspects. This same story in a more modern settings/mindset might have been excellent.
