SynopsisLovenista tells the very modern tale of a girl with a perchant for picking the wrong guys to fall for... and the bad boy who may just be good for her after all! (Source: Shoujo Manga Maniac) |

Though Lovenista only consists of 2 volumes, both are similar in the fact that they have a (sometimes scatter brained) female lead who has a past full of bad relationship choices. Instead of pursuing their cute supporting male friend who is deeply in love with them, both Nana (Hatchi) and Yun choose to accept the harder road of love.

both stories treat about teenage girls and their relationships with boys. although their plots are rather different, both of them are good reads and have similiar nice climax. the drawings are really nice (especially in Lovenista). I think that after reading a one of them, you'ii enjoy the other.
[ btw. I don't think that Nana and Lovenista are similiar at all! don't be tricked. ]

Jul 29, 20089 of ? chapters read 14 of 18 people found this review helpful Lovenista is a Shoujo, Smut, Romance that’s rather different from the usual shoujo manga’s take on love & dependency, which would have been great if it was executed well enough.
It’s about a love struck high school girl (Yun Morokawa) who hasn’t been able to keep a long-lasting relationship but that all changes when she meets a notorious guy (Hiromichi Kondou) in her school. Though I must say that the way the relationship began was a little odd, because... it didn’t seem believable. It goes like this: she meets a guy she normally wouldn’t go for, however she ends up falling blindly in love with him anyway. At least the various relationships that occupy this manga are very captivating; especially the main one that is full of strife and some surprising turns of events.
The main couple involved in this manga are very typical for your average school-based shoujo romance. We have your cute but gullible heroine and your handsome but mysterious hero. They each have dependency issues that make their odd relationship interesting but their qualities were rather lacking. The characters on the side are pretty much the same; they’re interesting but lack substance.
The most appealing factor of this manga has to be the artwork, with a lot of effort put into the character designs, the detailed backgrounds and the sensual romantic moments. The characters not only have nicely defined features, their sense of style is portrayed well and the sensual moments certainly get heated.
Overall the word that comes to mind when I think of Lovenista is ‘unrealistic’. Sure the ‘make-up artist’ theme worked well with the stunning art style and romance was interesting except it just wasn’t satisfying, when it came to its typical shoujo ending.

May 25, 20089 of ? chapters read 5 of 8 people found this review helpful Personally, I found no satisfaction in this manga at all. It's defiantly a different and unique manga along the lines of "romance" and "true love", though in a way it is quite corny and stereotypical.
I would recommend it to anybody who's looking for a quick romance story that honestly, doesn't hold much substance but for romance readers like me who is looking for a little more then just a boy meets girl, then 'The End', I do not recommend Lovenista.
Additional...ly, I felt no emotion between the characters. No development and too rushed. Completely unrealistic, as well unconvincing. read more
