The more you read the more you realize how unbeatable Skip Beat is.
Sadly, Skip Beat publication suspended in my country because its low popularity (and I'm late for this hype!)
This manga doesn't offer your "kyaa kyaa" reaction with childish modern romances yet still the greatest shoujo manga ever written.
The drama is too good to not look at. Their hardship really pays off. You laugh and cry to see they are grow up.
The "Skip Beat" term means how every characters feel alive in every aspect of life. Just like how our main characters, Kyoko and Ren, encounter in early chapter, their problem what they have lost as a human being : feelings.
It's true this more than 10+ years serialization is insane, but I love every bits of their journey.
