This is one of my all time favourite manga!
It's a story thats been told before, but then now days what hasn't? But the way this manga presents the story is original, fun, creative and wonderfully drawn. The characters are all so beautiful and the lead is electric, interesting and unique!
It's all about a high school girl named;
Yosano Suzume.
She's a day dreamer, pretty and a little unusual. She comes from a small country village in Japan, her life there is quiet, calm and comfortable and surround by people she's known her whole life.
Her life takes a new turn when she's forced to move to Tokyo and live with an uncle she's never met, because her parents are moving to Bangladesh for work.
Life in Tokyo is unlike anything she's experienced before. It's loud, filled with people and a lot of them are a little 'weird' at least to her.
She's desperate to meet a friend but her class doesn't seem to want to be involved with the country hic. It's not until she discovers the secret of a fellow classmate and blackmails him into becoming her friend, his name is; Mamura-Kun
(I know he's a drawing and an animated one at that but how beautiful is he?!)
This doesn't help Suzume's situation as her relationship with Mamura-Kun, causes the girls to become jealous by her 'special treatment'.
She eventually makes some friends but does the foolish thing of falling in love with her teacher.
Yup, told you this story had been done before.
Theres a whole bunch of drama that follows her after she confesses her love for her sensei, all very dramatic and exciting.
But the BEST thing about this manga is the end for - 'the other guy'
As any shoujo, or korean drama fan knows there is ALWAYS an 'other guy'. This is the guy that secretly loves the leading lady in the manga. He's the one who's always by her side, who supports her, who defends her, who's really sweet and thoughtful and who never makes her cry. He's also NEVER chosen. I've read A LOT of manga and watched a lot of dramas and in every situation the good guy, the one everyone secretly wants her to be with rather than the guy that broke her heart numerous times, that was rude or cheated yet he's the one she 'loves' and he's usually always the one chosen. But this manga likes to keep you on your toes! And it's what makes this manga so great for me!
It had every aspect you search for in a romance manga.
Strong female lead
beautiful guys
Love triangle!
Drama
School life
forbidden love
friendship
etc.... It's the perfect shoujo manga! and there's plenty of chapters so you won't be done in half an hour of binge reading and feel empty once you've finished!
