Tanssia's manga / #shoujo(343)

Power

Complete | Seino Shizuru | 1999 released

Oh my gosh. I had read this a couple of years ago, but didn't finish it bc for some reason shoujo mangas are really freaking long. But today I pushed through and finished and oh my gosh, this manga is as hilarious as I remember it was!!! I love the main girl, sure she's a bit overexaggerative, but it's also hilarious. The main guy is in such denial it can be kind of frustrating, but his actions pretty much say I love you. Lol, there's a love triangle but don't take it too seriously. okay, so kyo crossdresses as a guy to go to a famous basketball school bc her dad is a fruit loop, but there she meets chiharu her roommate, and of course, the two have a terrible first meeting, but hate easily turns to love. I love all of the characters in the this( main and side). And that ending, was perfect. Slow burn.

I like this, but I wish it had ended earlier. It's draggy and using the love triangle plot device a bit too heavily. I just know my heart is going to be broken, but I do admit, I am curious as to who she'll end up with. You know now that I think about it, it's very similar to one of those otome games.

sigh. it's always so sad when i realize that even guys would be prettier girls than me. lol. i'm glad they got their happy ending in the end. didn't care for the love triangle though. bc i really liked the servant guy. lol, but i also liked the main guy too. sigh. this is why i don't like love triangles. :(

Ouji-sama to Haiiro no Hibi

...I don't really know what to think about this. Lol. It seems like it could be interesting, but then it seems like it could be boring... Girl cross dresses as a rich guy that has suddenly disappeared in exchange for money. I just want to say, this makes me view people as horrible, seriously, who treats other people like this? Is being poor such a terrible thing? She has no control over that. Bastards. She should teach them a lesson. Kill them with kindness. Her dad sucks too. Ugh. Nvm. According to comments she ends up with the jerk. So cliche af. But I'll still read, bc I want to know the ending.

I had been putting this off bc the cover looked bad, but I actually really like the artwork. it reminds me of the old days. I read the first couple of chapters loved it. And then read some more chapters and there was literally no development. It was just teasing from akira and the princess dude not doing anything and the main girl just worrying over it and I can't read 50 chapters of that. It could have been good if it had been condensed into about 10 chapters without all the heeing and hawing. Seriously, so frustrating, i couldn't finish. i got to chapter 10.

why is everything so cliche? I'm trying to read shoujo, but why is everything making me so angry??? seriously? how do you fall in love with a guy with such a bad personality? and in one day too? and you, what's with that arrogant, don't fall in love with me routine? are you trying to use reverse psychology? dang it, i quit.

i think that i should just make a list of love triangles so that i know what not to read; seriously, why does every shoujo have to use a love triangle??? The story is so good. if it didn't have the love triangle.

it's not a slow burn. it's like throwing wood together, getting out the match and then not lighting the match and expecting a fire to come about. frustrating.

Kami-sama no Ekohiiki

Complete | Komura Ayumi | 2000 released

awww, I'm disappointed, this could have been such a great shounen-ai childhood friend story, but then it switched to normal shoujo. lol. It kind of makes me sad that he was willing to change his gender just so his best friend would fall in love with him. I mean. At that point, I think I would just go look for someone that would accept me for me. I mean. I get the heart wants what it wants, but...idk, it's just sad that he wanted to completely change himself for the other guy. But I guess if you got the chance to be the love of your life's ideal love, you'd take the chance. It's interesting, but I'm still disappointed, lol. I do want to see how he's going to go about it though. Ah, now that I looked at the mangaka's other works, she created Usotsuki Liliy, so this will definitely be good.
