I bought these books for my daughter who loves the story and she sits and reads them over and over and over again. Well worth the price.

I love this series. Although this is a really cheezy phrase, I liken reading it to eating a cupcake. It's full of sweetness and fun, but it's also quite simple and relatively straightforward. It's the usual manga series, having a reverse harem for all the ladies to enjoy, but the characters have great personality. Even though most people tend to hate the female protagonist on sheer principle, I admit to liking like her.
The one thing that I'm not terribly fond of is that the author tends to make a lot of the things unsaid/undrawn. It means that you end up scrambling around for a minute wondering 'what happened, I didn't read that, did I?' It's must more prevalent in the first two books, but minimized here. The one scene I would have liked to see was Inori's fight with Shimon. Although it's explained in the fifth volume, I find that the distance via time and book also gives the audience too much distance. We don't feel the real emotional punch of both Inori's anger and Shimon and Akane's pain. Overall, it's a good series. I know that it's been going on for quite a while, it is completed. I haven't read that far in advance, but I'm hoping it continues to move and show character change. |
