Genre/Topics: manga, high school, shōjo, lighthearted romance, public façade
Emotions: that sickly sweet butterflies in your stomach first crush feeling that weighs down on you every time you look at that special person
Beautiful art, interesting and amusing characters, and a unique but decidedly shōjo concept. It's a light romance between two "perfect" high school students whose personalities in private differ greatly from the way they present themselves day-to-day, what more can a girl wish for?
The way the writing juxtaposes the main characters' public façade against their private personalities is amazing. The dialogue perfectly shifts between these two realities, really illustrating how these two characters are constantly switching between these personas themselves.
This was a quick, easy read and I'd recommend it for anyone who enjoys a simple, no mess romance (especially for newbies to the manga/shōjo world!). Definitely looking forward to the next (and future) volumes. Fingers crossed for a bit more interpersonal drama, conflict, and angst.
