Really cute and sweet! I do wish the author spent more time hashing out the past life drama though. It was such a promising backdrop to the story!

The plot seemed a little...out there? Ridiculous? But still enjoyable. The mangaka did a great job pulling out the characters' emotions though, and seemed to have a real knack for painting dark emotions onto a seemingly lighthearted plot. As such, I find it rather difficult to classify this as shoujo, or even josei. The ending was definitely very rushed, which was a disappointment after all the emotional buildup beforehand. The scene with Setsu's email was absolutely beautiful and heartwrenching, though, and had me sobbing for longer than I'd like to admit. TT_TT

This was...interesting. Once again, this author has a superb ability to convey the darkest of emotions in such a clean way. It's very curious; the art isn't particularly hard or convoluted, but all of her stories seem to convey it so well.

Cute? Story about a witch who saves a 5th prince, falls in love, and then has to overcome the kingdom's scorn to marry her love now that he's been given the title of king. And all while dodging the 1st prince who's doing whatever he can to take the right to rule back. Ending was dull; I felt like the last 2 chapters could have been more interesting, and we could have gotten a much better resolution with the older brother.

How can I describe this? It has a different feel from other yaoi, but I couldn't stop reading. Somehow, even with all of their strangeness and flaws, the characters were so endearing. Maybe because they seemed as real and random as real people? And I really enjoyed the dialogue, especially in the first story. Somehow, the lulls in conversation spoke volumes.

Such a lovely story! I'm surprised it has no comments yet. It was funny, the sports scenes were thrilling, and, despite all the silly comedy, it still made me tear up a few times. I also really loved the friendship between Hiro, Hideo, and Noda (especially Hiro and Hideo). Overall, this is just the sort of manga that makes me think "ah youth!" to myself on a lovely summer day. I was a bit...disappointed(?) with the ending. Or, rather, I would have liked to see a bit more resolution between the whole Koga situation, and their futures and whatnot. Or maybe I just liked it so much I wanted to watch them keep going a while longer lol. Either way...10/10!

It's sad but I'm glad I finished it. The uncle was still kind of an asshole, manipulating everyone else's emotions just to get his way. I'm really glad everything worked out with Yuu-kun though. Wish I could see their family life! ^.^

House of Beauties

High school girl runs away to Tokyo to pursue her dream of becoming an actress. One step before being homeless, she finds an inexpensive boarding house with one condition: all tenants must be beautiful. Review: Uh...okay I guess? It wasn't bad, but wasn't great either. A solid shoujo- great for passing time.
