Same mangaka as Ichigo, and there are lots of character similarities drawn but the faces/body features are pretty much it, there are alot of different characters and its pretty ecchi too
same author, same premise, same delivery, same entertainment value with a refreshing twist of fanservice.

Both series highlight a chain of one-sided love.

A Lovely Complex
by radiantfire
Context:
For this review, I will be analysing Hatsukoi Limited, a romance manga series. It is by Mizuki Kawashita who is probably most known for being the author of Ichigo 100%. Although I have only read 11 chapters, I felt the need to help users gain a better understanding of what the series truly is. Basic...ally, I want to give this series a nice introduction. Later on, once the series has progressed further, I will re-evaluate my thoughts and edit this review.
Story:
Hatsukoi Limited is an intricate attempt on high school romance. It is on this assertion that we get several love stories happening simultaneously. Thus, chapters often focus on specific relationships to limit the obscurity.
In its introductory stages, the series has already created an established foundation in a chain of one-sided love. Some of you may welcome it, some may not. However, I still would encourage those who enjoy romance to give it a go.
Art:
The art is very good. The characters are drawn exceptionally well and the scenery is detailed. The series also boasts a decent amount of fanservice.
Character:
In a general sense, the characters represent an important element of the complex concentration that Hatsukoi Limited brings. They each have their own notion of potential partners and therefore have distinct ways of showing admiration. They're all unique and entertaining in this sense.
Enjoyment:
It started slowly but you'll eventually get used to pace and feel of the series. Initially, you might feel like you're reading a collection of one shots, but as you continue reading, you begin to start enjoying it. Overall, it's a fun read.
Conclusion:
I entitled this review 'A Lovely Complex' because I enjoy the multifaceted connection each story brings. At times, readers may feel overwhelmed by the increasing amount of relationships. However, you have to understand that the series is still in its introductory stages. Although Hatsukoi Limited brought a slow start, it nonetheless sets a stimulating and promising premise. read more

Jul 22, 200832 of ? chapters read 4 of 6 people found this review helpful I really enjoyed Hatsukoi Limited. It surprised me how enjoyable it was. Many compare this manga to Ichigo 100% because they share the same mangaka but personally, I found Hatsukoi Limited much more enjoyable. Though there wasn't much character development I still felt a strange charm and attraction to all the characters unlike in Ichigo 100%. All the characters were introduced and given a nice summary, some more then others. None were left out and I thought that was really nice. When I first s...aw this manga I thought it would just be a whole bunch of one-shots about school girls falling in love over..and over..and over again. Yet, surprisingly, it's nothing really like that. I mean there are school girls, and they're definitely is love but there all the stories were connected to one another. Not to mention there were stories in guy POVs as well (which I usually enjoy more). Additionally, I found that the characters in this manga were so charming that it didn't take much for me to be attached or label some of them my favorites. And as many readers so know, reading about characters you favor is almost always throughroughly enjoyable- which is what it was for me. I couldn't wait to read about my favorite couples and I couldn't wait to cheer for some couples and even, as I must shamley admit, hope for some couples to fail.
The art in this manga was really well done as well. All the characters were nice to look at and there's really nothing that I can find wrong/bad about the art in this manga. Not to mention, the variety of faces in this manga was quite ranged too. I mean there were plain faced boys, thug like boys, otaku looking boys, handsome boys, and.. well actually all the girls were generally really good-looking.
The whole manga had a very nice feel to it. Nothing to dramatic, nothing too mushy- just a nice light romance comedy about teenage girls and boys learning about the harsh, sweet, and bittersweet thing called love.
I really enjoyed this manga. It was a surprisingly good read. I definitely recommend it to anybody who wants to read a light romantic comedy. And though it seems kind of long, the stories are nicely varied yet all connected to one another, plus keeps you entertained the whole way through. (: read more

Oct 6, 2007? chapters 4 of 15 people found this review helpful I personally really like this manga a lot although only one chapter is released so far.
The reason I so attracted to Hatsukoi Limited is because the mangaka itself, Kawashita Mizuki. She is a mangaka who created some popular manga. Ichigo 100% is one of them.Enough with the introduction, I will review it now.
I really like the story a lot. The reason is because it is creative. I have never seen this style before. As in the title itself Hatsukoi Limited (First Love limited), i...t is about a bunch of girls who meet with their first love. This style is never been seen before unlike the other mangas that is about many girls crushed on one guy in same time. So it will focus on many character. And I enjoyed the plot pretty much, too. I don't want to write the spoiler so i just give the hint based on first chapter title,' Beautiful Girl and a Monster'. Pretty interesting, huh?
For the artwork, Kawashita Mizuki use the same style as she used in her other creation. So no much improvement with it. But for some reason, I really like the artwork! Don't worry, if you likes Ichigo 100% style, you will definitely likes this one too!
Ok we will talk about the characters now. Hm...they have many beautiful girls in it (as expected from Kawashita Mizuki). Only one chapter is released so far so I don't know how to describe this. And for the male character, it is pretty interesting. You can find the hint at the title, so I don't want to bother it so much.
The enjoyment? I'm really enjoys it! The main reason is, well, interesting :P. I don't know how to describe this, sorry.
Overall rating is 8 out of 10! It is hilarious, so I can't wait for the next chapter.For the one who want to read this manga and have a problem downloads it or getting the Weekly Jump, just go to www.onemanga.com and read it online. This is my first review so it is not really good...I will write a better one next time, sorry! read more
