Purikyuu (Manga)

Another cute and funny story, from Motomi Kyousuke's works.
The plot was simple yet hilarious in some way.
The art was also good and simply unique, especially the characters' facial expressions.
The characters, I must say have very interesting personalities, especially the strong main female character.:)
I'm sure anyone will also be able to enjoy it!:))

A 2D, one volume, shallow love story.

An ex-prima ballerina, our 16-year-old heroine; makes me wonder when was she actually a prima ballerina, when she was a 2-year-old? Anyway, back to the (not) heart-wrenching story, at her prime (when was that exactly? Will someone answer!) she had a knee injury, which we will never fully know about, {tut, tut, writer, what have you been doing?} and now she is in highschool and has joined the archery club because of her childhood friend... That is a guy... Did I mention this is a shallow predictable love story? Think the predictable.

So that's it for the 2D, dimensionless, very straightforward, WAY too straightforward plot.

The characters were so predictable, so uninteresting, so formless. They didn't have any color (I didn't mean literally), they had no solid personalities, they were a mess.
Other than the main character being a 24/7 waterworks show that indiscriminately blushes at every thoughtless thing; she was comical.
No, actually the whole story was comical.
What did she mean 'you are the only one in my heart'?
Honestly, I'm no fortuneteller but I can clearly see that within a week, you'd have broken up.

I swear the amount of cheesy, corny, greasy shallow love in this story will seriously make you blind from toxic fumes.

'You're really such a nice guy and sensitive to me'

*Input barf sound*

The art or this miserable effort to produce something close to art, was, by now quite obviously, appalling. It was detail-less, not proportionate, lacking the illustrators style, lacking any genuine effort put in by the illustrator. I mean did they actually look at a healthy human being lately? Because seriously, you can't compare, you'd have thought that that was the setting for X-Men.

Did I enjoy this?

My eyes were stinging from the over saturation of shallow love and blushing effects, the story was magnificently over stuffed with cliches.
