SynopsisIn a small town in the countryside, close to the sea, a young high-school girl lived alone with her cousin. When life seemed to her too painful and too sad, she contemplated the sky and was refreshed by looking at the stars. But one night in spring, she met a boy who sealed her destiny....

i might be biased since i'm a fan of Natsuki Takaya's previous work which is Fruits Basket...
even so Hoshi Wa Utau does not deliver to a mainstream audience since the plot is quite slow.the intricateness,the drama is thick but the comedy is thin.dont expect the same humour from fruits basket...
i recommend this manga to those who enjoys a slow but meaningful story;that is hoshi wa utau.
perhaps at an earlier stage you might find the characters typical after all the heroine is a typical cute but foolish girl..but as i thread on the story she grew on me,she has so many flaws but her strong will to live and her love for the stars touched me.
and for the hero of the story which is Aoi Chihiro,aside from him being very good looking and smart and all that,he bears the pain from his past love.which of course leads to the unrequitedness of the story..
but as for me the character Kanade interest me more than the main lead Hero.Kanade or better known as Kana-chan is the one who acts as Saku's guardian.He's quite a grumpy character and i cant wait to learn more about him in the future chapters.
overall it is a good read for me,be patient when reading because the drama starts around chapter 17 or 18..but you might be intrigued by it from chapter four if i'm not mistaken.hope you'll enjoy this manga as i did!

They both have a similar melancholy feel not typically found in shojo.
These two stories are about deeply hurt people living in the darkness, and struggling to overcome the darkness and learn to live again. They are both very sad, deep but also very real and kind, somehow.

Same mangaka and the main characters are very similar. If you liked one, you'd like the other!
