...oh, right.
This manga isn't TOO bad, but it really isn't very good either, which is why I'm giving it a 7 (6 being for me the ing grade). It could have been a 9 if it hadn't dragged on and on and ON for so long! Seriously, it's 19 volumes long, and only about 7 of those volumes (the first 3 and the last 4, plus a few chapters in the middle) are worth your effort. And I would have added an extra point if the ending wouldn't have been so lame.
See, the manga has comedy, romance, drama and ecchi content... but none of it is all that great. The comedy is mostly slapstick, or it comes from characters being in embarrassing situations (just how many times can these girls fall to the ground and expose their panties, or land with their butt or breasts in the main character's face?? I hope you really like that "gag" because you'll be seeing it A LOT). Same goes for the ecchi bits, which are never too ecchi anyways, if that's what you want to read this manga for. And the romance... well, there isnt't really such a thing here, basically because the protagonist is a spineless wimp (even compared to other male main characters in the harem genre, which is already saying a lot). All the relationships here are one-sided; the girls like the main guy, who just lets himself be dragged along by them. Oh, and for the drama, again there's barely such a thing here. Don't even know why I mentioned it.
The one thing this manga excels at is its art. From characters to backgrounds to expressions, everything is top notch. Do yourself a favour and look at the pretty pictures.
As I said before, about two thirds of this manga (the middle part) should have been cut. Nothing really happens there. The plot doesn't move. The feelings between the characters don't really change, or, if they do, it's two steps forwards and one and a half steps backwards. It's just frustrating, really. Try this: read volumes 1 through 3 and then pick the story up at volume 16. Aside from a couple of side characters, you'll be able to understand it entirely. The main characters themselves will have barely evolved in of their feelings for each other. So what's the point?
It would be forgivable for the story to drag on like this if it was really funny or really touching or even really exciting, but it isn't. Conversely, it would be forgivable for the story to be this mediocre if it hadn't been so bloody long (IT JUST WOULDN'T FINISH!). But this combination of mediocrity and absurd length it just... agh! Maybe I'm just spoiled for having read so many other mangas that manage this in a much better way, but that's the problem... there are a lot of other mangas out there that do what Ichigo 100% does in a much better way, so there's really no reason to bother with it.
Finally, both the excesive length and the mediocre plot could have been forgiven if the ending had made it all worth your trouble, but it doesn't. Without spoiling it for you, since this is a harem manga, you can guess what the end is about. However, the author missed the opportunity to make this part really touching as it should have been. And I'm not saying that the particular decisions made by the characters are to blame, but it's just not told in a way that makes me care (in other words, I'm not upset because my favorite characters didn't end together; it just wasn't touching enough, it wasn't a satisfying closure for 19 volumes of manga). For all it matters, they could have made their decisions by flipping coins on-, and it would have carried about the same emotional weight. I've read a number of romance and harem mangas, and this is probably the less fulfilling ending in all of them.
In short, give it a shot if you got nothing better to do, but if you reach volume 5 and begin to wonder if you should quit or bear with it, just skip to volume 16 and get it over with.
