I was curious to read this piece since I am looking for a love story which encircles on the story of an older guy. So right, someone recommend it to me.


STORY:

The Story is good. It is a typical Shoujo Manga that everyone always saw. the fact that it is 13 chapters and the author showed how their love bloom is actually amazing. Though I'm really shocked how fast their love for each other starts. No something that happens that would make them for each other. As I say, a typical shoujo manga. And a short one, at that. I gave it a good grade ... since:

~It is a common story
~The twist or the problem the lovers encountered is quite easy. Or it's just that I expect more effort on the two on how they'll be able to express their love for each other.

ART:

Art is great. It's good and I have nothing to comment about that. :)


CHARACTER:

The character is... good?
Though, we always see the personality on most shoujo mangas out there.
The rude, jelous but kind ones.
And the immature, sweet and cute girl.
But they pass the test in portraying the character they must act in the story.

ENJOYMENT:

I enjoyed it :D
Since I'm enjoying scenes in shoujo which the guy is overprotective on the girl. And the like. :D
It takes me back to my teenage life. Hahahah :D


OVERALL:

Overall, the manga is good. :)
It's refreshing.
It's simple and pure.
It's loyal and faithful.
It's worth the try. :)

This manga is perhaps one of my favourite shoujo mangas of all times. It starts out as a classic boy meets girl. The female and male main characters meet for the first time beneath a sakura tree... surely fated to never meet again. And then of course, they meet again! The female protagonist finds out, that in fact, the boy she kissed is her "uncle" (not blood-related though), and she would be his "niece" and her parents ask her "uncle" to take care of her while they're away. Before I say anymore about this manga, you should know a couple things:

-The age difference between the ... characters is quite wide. I would presume the guy has at least 15 years on her. So if you're not comfortable with large age gaps, this is not the manga for you. However, if you're A-okay with that kind of stuff this is definitely your kind of manga.

-While they aren't blood-related, it would technically still be "incest" I suppose... they know from the get-go that he's adopted and they aren't related... so it's not like anything bad can really come from them coming together other than breaking some rather serious taboos.

If you don't have a problem with either of these things, this is definitely a great manga that I would highly recommend. It has quality art, and decent character development. Overall though, what I love about this manga is the overall feel and impression it left me with at the end. It's a gentle, romantic, but mold-breaking manga. It may seem like the common shoujo from a glance, but I assure you it's not!

Ai hime is the story about a 17 year old girl who starts cohabiting with her non blood related uncle who is only 7 years her senior. However they met before they knew each other earlier and had a very big romantic moment which ended with a kiss. Now these love birds must live together.

This series is neither original nor unique but that in itself doesn't make it bad. I have read the author's other works and they pretty much play the same way as this did. 2 people fall in love, start dating, have sex, the end without any love rivals. I've read ... 4 of her works and she essentially makes these romance series which is exactly what people are usually asking for. A manga where the dating happens early on, they have sex and their aren't any love rivals. All of them have played this way the only difference being here the MMC is a bit more of an asshole. More shoujo asshole personality. A bit of Gary Sue and it kinda brought the series down tbh.

The series does get relatively better in terms of the male character's personality. It occurs in the last volume so the series ends on a good note.

I mean this series is incredibly straight forward. Sure their are massive problems like how the hell the uncle had never met his niece. Why the parents are letting the uncle take care of their teenage daughter just so they can go around the world. And a bunch of other random ass shit. But this does have all the good stuff. Ending is great. For romance fans i feel like this is pretty much all the fanservice. Kiss scenes specifically are just fantastic. However in terms of good writing its missing some parts here and their.

TLDR: Risk free(relatively) fluffy romance manga. 6/10
