| I can't believe there are no postes for this great series yet! Well, after what seems like years the final volume of Ai Yori Aoshi was released not too long ago. This was the first manga I ever started, based mainly on the fact that I liked the anime so much. All of the characters were great, but for some reason the characters of Kaoru and especially Aoi particularly just resonate with me, and I found myself pulling for them through the whole series. The ending especially, when the comedy was pretty much set aside for the drama was great and I found myself almost chearing at the end of the last page. So, and other fans of this manga around? |

kei-clone said: i hated the manga art. one of the few series where I thought the anime was better than the manga I'll agree that the artwork was better in the anime (especially compared to the earlier volumes), but I can think of other series where I felt the same (for example, I think that the AMG TV series artwork is head and shoulders above the manga). I also think the anime (particularly the first season) did a much better than average job of adapting the story to the TV format, while remaining faithful to the manga. The only real flaw in the anime is that it was done before the manga was complete, thus it lacks a proper ending. Too bad we are unlikely to ever see one now... Still, the manga is there for us, and I certainly enjoyed reading the end of the story when Tokyopop *finally* got around to releasing the last volume. ;-) |

| Hmm...i like the last volume though, when Aoi become one with Kaoru, it's epic, if you know what i mean ^^ |

| It was a great manga in my opinion. A bit repetative at times but better then all the herem manga ive ever read. This is prolly the only one i didnt consider dropping. I know exactly what u mean Laevantein ;) |
| loved how they handled the story....yea, it does get boring in the middle but it picks up really well later on and manages to still pack a punch. When it went all boring in the middle, i put it on hold for more than half a year but i came back to it i found it worth picking up again. Maturely handled plot (loved it) ! art was good and characters were good too! a 9 from me at the least |

| 7 overall. 5 for last chapter. They could explore it so much. I mean, a couple years later and they still didn't have a child? Not to talk about how repetitive it was some times. |

| It was okay, nothing special. This is a good read for those who want a lighthearted romance with very little drama. But like the above said it was kinda repetitive, some chapters were boring and predictable. Well, Aoi is a perfect waifu (imo her appearance isn't that good), she's loyal, know how to cook, very sweet and conservative. Her love for Kaoru is unbelievable. I rated this 6/10. |

This manga was a huge disappointment to me. Repetitive, nothing really new. Also, I don't believe in that love story, I simply can't - it's way too perfect. 6 out of 10, maybe even less. |
