Let me say this simple sentence :
This is better than Tsubasa to Hotaru.
There is no trashy love triangle. No childish characters.
The atmosphere given is really good. I'm sold after chapter 1 and read it till the latest like a mad dog.
Momoko is one of the cutest heroine I've ever meet in shoujo manga. She is clumsy at its finest, honest on top of that. I like the way she acts and think.
Her best friend - Miharu - too, makes me fall in love with her jolly behavior. It colored the situation given in addition to the element of the tragedy that occurred. The conflict continues and mixes well with many sweet moments in it.
But unfortunately the stereotype of the male lead is truly one dimensional.
I don't see any difference with Tsubasa; warm, cool, has a weak stature. The type that is always there to encourage the main character - it's just sweeter here.
Anyway, imo this is her best work yet I like so far. This is so sweet, heart-warming .... and sad. Ughh.
