D-ASH is a brilliant Seinen, Romance, Sports, Drama "coming of age" manga about the lives of 4 elementary school kids and how they changed and developed as they grew up.
The story is full of Drama, Romance and real life issues that any of us could experience or have experienced but it focuses mostly on one particular character. This manga does a great at showing how 4 very different kids developed over the years as they each are affected by separate issues. After covering the main characters elementary lives, in the first chapter, it then skips to middle school, then high school and then adulthood. All these time-skips do feel somewhat excessive, in the initial volume, yet it does manage to cover all the necessary events.
The artwork is really inconsistent, where at times it can look superb with detailed character designs, environments, shadings and then there are other times when it looks plain sloppy. This made it difficult to rate the artwork but I felt like giving it a generous score due to the amazing sprinting effects.
D-ASH is a very fast paced manga with so many time-skips in the first 2 Volumes that you'll have to constantly assess the changes in the characters lives and personalities. However this is a good thing about the manga with another being that there aren't any noticeable cliches making this feel somewhat refreshing, for a sports romance. One major problem is that after all the drama and romance, the final volume didn't seem as good as the previous ones, but maybe that was because the author was trying to round everything up, by focusing solely on Sports.
Well I'll still recommend this to anyone who's into a Sports, Romance, although this is a Seinen manga and not Shounen.

Both are romance series where you can watch the main characters grow up from child hood to being adults. Both of them also are pretty sporty, though D-ASH is more revolved around a sport than Complex. Complex is boyxboy while D-ASH is the old fashioned girlxboy. Plus Complex brings the characters all the way to the old man stage while D-ASH stops at the adult stage. I can truly say I loved reading both of them and that though if you love one, you may not love the other (considering the difference in 'types' of romance), but they do relate in many ways and if you don't mind either genre than i'm sure you'll enjoy them both.

Both great Sports, Romance however D-ASH is a Seinen, Slice of Life whereas Suzuka is a Shounen, Comedy. ^_^
