If you are reading the comments to know if it's worth reading, it definitely is. Beatiful art and heart-warming story

I read this years ago and I still remember how I cried 😢 Such a beautiful story.

@SugarArirang omg yes I am the same, no matter how many times I read it, it always moves me, truly is beautiful

The premise is simple, it’s short, but god damn do I love it anyways. Hikage is just so adorable???

ohoooo this is such a gold, found it when i was in elementary school (which like years ago, 10 maybe?), too bad not many of you read this. GO READ THIS! A REAL SHOUJO MANGA YOU SHOULDN'T MISS I SWEAR

 

[softhaneul]

this is the first manga I ever read! If you're here for typical classic shoujo, you should read them.

Tooyama Ema did great for bringing me to the manga world.

are you sure you guys read the same thing as me, here' my review:

Spoiler

Kinda similar to Kimi Ni Todoke but also very different, this one had way too much focus on bullying and way less on romance, I mean there wasn't a single kiss and very little on friendship as well.
The bullying really ruined it for me, justice was never served, the bully never got punished, not even a little, in fact she got a hug from the victim, i guess they were trying to send a message that violence isn't the answer, love is, but i still wanted to break her neck.
In the end judging by the manga's length i should have known this wasn't going to amount to much, but even so short it could have been a lot better if there was as much romance as there was bullying.
Also some of the things said were simply not true or contradictory, like the first time she said that Hinata always helps her, but he never did at that point, stuff like that just aggravates you and breaks the flow of the story. Gave it a 5/10.

omg i read this in middle school it was so good but there were only 3 volumes in my local library

 

[kawaiitohruchan]

@JoeGP I agree with some of your points. This manga doesn't really amount to much but I enjoyed it out of nostalgia.

 

[JoeGP]

@kawaiitohruchan ah yes, nostalgia, it can make anything better because you only remember the parts you liked.
And your local library had manga in it ? where are you from ? i think only Japan would have manga in a library.

 

[kawaiitohruchan]

@JoeGP I live in America, I'm not really sure if it's common in other libraries in my state but my library had a few manga. It wasn't like a big collection. They had popular manga such as One Piece, Naruto and Bleach. They also had unknown shoujo manga like this one.

 

[JoeGP]

@kawaiitohruchan i guess outside of Japan, the US might be the 2nd biggest consumer of manga, so i shouldn't be that surprised, i just remember watching an anime where they wanted to include/introduce manga and other stuff in the school library, so if a japanese school library didn't have manga it was hard to imagine any other one having it, but i guess anime is not the most accurate source of information.

@kawaiitohruchan The Salem, Oregon city library has a lot of manga too. It's closed now though.
