despite every cliche thrown in, despite the fact that it had the kind of artwork i dislike the most (kinda childish, awkward, non-standing out, overly blushing characters), despite everything else, i still managed to like this?? i don't get it XD
despite it all, i actually liked it. didn't think i would at all, in fact the first few volumes i was laughing at it and wondering if i could suffer through and read it all. but i did! and i liked the themes and the story, no matter how cliched. it's all about your first love, first heartbreak, and how you deal with love. very love-romance-cheese-ified. lol. but that sort of story is good every once in a while, i guess. and i really liked how the ending tied in with a part in the beginning. did anyone else catch that.. ? (when she was on the train, and she muttered.. names.. both in the end and beginning) ha.
kind of bitter-sweet. reaaaally cliched. but maybe there's a reason why cliches are so popular? i mean people need to like them if authors want to use the situation so much. x33 time skips were cleverly placed in the right spots to help the story along. and the extra at the end was cute, it kind of gave an absolute conclusion. i haven't read manga with a complete conclusion like that in a while~!
but yeah, so give it a try. you might find yourself kinda liking it.
