So, this is a short review for all the manga. Okay, so at first I loved this manga (the first volume was really good) but then, for me, it started to get boring and repetitive (especially since the two were always fighting like oh my god guys) but I guess the ending was good. I liked it, but definitely not my favorite shoujo.

The best

The last 2 volumes of this series really got me. The climax felt rush, and Karen didn't seem as fleshed out in the end, but I still enjoyed reading their ending. Typical shojo ending with a wedding, but I loved it none the less.

okay, I didn't bought this last one, instead I (along with my friend) read it in a bookstore and was glad didn't spend any dime since it went weird and very...cheap? no offense, since I was already surrounded by classic readings

So, I read this entire series in one night and something about it pushed me on through it...but I found myself exhausted at the end. They fought all the time! I was pooped by the end of the series. Did I like the series- eh, it was okay. Do I recommend it- no.

Good volume.

Kiriya and Karin live happily ever after!! This volume was just ok but I took points away b/c they totally ignored a plot point they brought up more than once and then just forgot about it in the end!!

Overall, I enjoyed this series and it's really great compared to other, similar shojo manga from this era. What sets this series apart though, is the writing for the most part is well done and all the main characters are likeable. Kiriya, the main male character isn't some, narcissistic bully and although Karin is naive she's not the typical pushover either. I wish she would have spoken up more but they were a nice, realistic young couple.
