This is for the overall Manga***
Overall rating 4.5 Stars**
This is the only shōjo manga/anime I've ever watched so I have nothing to compare it too.**
This manga was so good! (I read it online because they do not have any published English versions)
The fleshing out of the characters was very well done. I though this was an accurate depiction of teenage romantic struggles and misunderstandings. I loved the art! There was a lot of back and forth but I did not mind that at all. I thought it went nicely with the plot and wasn't used in a bad way.
Feelings on characters
Futaba - She need to stay true to herself and stop going with the crowd... She also need to face her feelings instead of running away from them. No friend can tell you what you need to do. You need to choose for yourself.
Kou - Obviously Kou had other issues he needed to work on other than his romantic ones. He needed to realise Yui was in love with him and wasn't branching out because of that. He should have stepped away at that point. The last couple chapters he was like a totally different person and I really enjoyed that person as well as the person he was before.
Yuri - She's just a cute potato.
Shuko - I really didn't like her in the beginning but the more she opened up the more I began to like her. I thought she was real and sincere.
Aya - He is also a cute potato.
Yoichi Tanaka - I liked him A LOT and I rooted for him in whatever he was doing.
Toma - I have a love/hate relationship with Toma. There is nothing wrong with him but he was ruining my OTP and he needed to step back.
Yui - This girl need to take several seats because she was just mean. She was keeping Kou with her under false pretenses and my sympathy for her slipped away at that point. I do hope she finds happiness on her own.

I've changed my mind. andou is leagues better than touma. LEAGUES. heck, even shishio was better. I get the whole cute-short-musician-boy thing but excuse me?? she just got rejected by the boy she actually likes?? and you're SMILING?? BECAUSE YOU HAVE A CHANCE WITH HER NOW???? EXCUSE ME??????
that being said, the whole narumi thing has always irritated me and it's irritating me now, too. narumi is a rotten banana peel and I get her situation but she's acting like such a victim and kou's heart is way too big.
also: futaba and murao are so strong. and kominata is a good example of respecting a girl's feelings. he's not pushing himself onto murao bc of his own feelings. he's actually considerate of her current state of being rejected by the guy she's liked for a while. (TAKE NOTE, TOUMA.)

JUST GET OVER YOUR SHIT ALREADY AND BE HONEST WITH YOUR FEELINGS. Sometimes, it's not really that complicated. I'm going crazy over these characters. ASDFDSJFKDLSDKFJDSKKDJ!!!
