This wasn’t my favourite manga, but I’m still going to write a review! It’s rating on Amazon is a 4.6/5, so it seems to be very well-received, just not my cup of tea.

What I like about the story

• I was able to learn some new words!
• The art is very pretty
• The story is unique

As there is no furigana (reading help for Kanji characters), I was able to practice reading more difficult words. I was also able to read some words I had never seen before, which increased my vocab! The main characters death was also a bit funny, and I like how it became motivation once she entered the story.

What I didn’t really like about the story

• The male lead
• It was a bit too short

---

I’m not a big fan of such crazy male leads. I prefer more laid back stories, so while reading this I was constantly worried about the main character..
