kei_k's manga / #Shoujo(441)

Those scenes of Vivi with other women kind of put me off, but I enjoyed it overall...

Kujou's airheadness was a bit too much at times, and while most of the time funny, I found the misunderstandings overused... I'd really want a devoted lover like Yanagi though.

Too bad it was kind of open-ended but it was heavily implied who the couples will be.. It was kinda sad that Yuuki and Sekiya didn't happen and Sekiya's been more conscious of Kasai bec of the kiss. It's annoying how it seems like an unspoken rule that whoever steals the heroine's first kiss, even if she hated him to the core, would be her love interest... Well Kasai wasn't exactly bad either, just that Yuuki was closer to my type. And Himemiya, well, she wasn't that annoying. She's even stronger than the MC. I guess in a way, she's more likable because she really speaks her mind even if she's hated, instead of going around being "kind" and not wanting to look bad.

Would've liked to know more about the concept of how he's there though.. It's a sad love story and while I'm solid against cheating, in this case, I can somehow tolerate it because it was clearly a political marriage and it wasn't clear if her husband truly loves her as well.. Anyways... Got brokenhearted when he said he got married and his wife's pregnant though I knew it had to be a lie to let go of their "what could've been"...

Not sure I liked the oneshot.. I mean... Being kissed by another girl, then breaking up... Then the girl was the one who still chased (sure the guy planned to confess in the cheering competition but if it were me, after seeing what transpired after we broke up, I wouldn't have waited and just moved on.).. Err Dunno.

If I had a bf and he did what Minase did, I wouldn't have forgiven him so easily... Espwcially because it's not like I know him enough or shared lots of good times with him to look past it. It would've been a different story if I know how deep our relationship is already. But if it's like that, I would've just held on to that incident and get over him. I wouldn't want to chase after a guy who could care less about us. Even with the dad's past.. Ahh Chiho must've loved him a lot to forgive that. Urk. I'm just too sensitive with cases like this. I just want an exclusively monogamous relationship..

Romance felt forced and unsatisfactory.. Didn't like how the girl acted.. I mean, surely there's a boundary of desperate/pathetic/obsessed and in love.
