So, it's been a while since I started reading a new manga. I have a huge list of ones I'd like to read but I picked this one since it was complete. It's pretty cute. These two characters have a complex with their heights. The girl, Risa, is suuuper tall 172cm (5'8")and the boy,Ootani, is suuuper short 156cm (5'1"). They have this whole hate-love thing going on. They always act like they hate each other but their are moments when you can see that they like each other. Risa comes to realize that she does in fact like Ootani but has trouble confessing. She gives hints but Ootani is sooooo dense. It's hilarious.
Didn't know how I would feel about this one since this time it's the guy whose dense and I'm so used to the girl being the suuper dense one but so far this manga has been pretty good. The only thing I've disliked about it so far is that ch. 13 read from left to right. It was sooo confusing and I just did not like at all. Sure they gave a note at the beginning telling us to read that way but it was just sooo unnatural. I'm glad it went away the next chapter. ^^ So far I approve of this manga. But who knows, I've only read 14 chapters ^_^
One thing that really gets me is that these kids are supposed to be about 15 right now. Everytime I read a manga, I like the ones where they are older than me. When they're younger, it's kinda like, oh, I've already been through that age. Like when I read ones about eighth graders, it's just kinda eh, silly children. They're too young to know what love is. What really gets me is that even though, they're 15, the date is 2002 so in reality they would be 9 years older than me. It's soo funny to think that times actually do never change. Kids always go through the same feelings no matter how much time passes. So instead of me thinking as these two as silly kids, they would actually be looking at my experience today and thinking, 'oh silly young girl.' Funny how time is. :)
And now I know that this time essay I'm supposed to be doing rather than reading mangas has corrupted my thought pattern -___-
