My feelings for this manga are very complicated. Overall, I really did enjoy it. I didn't love it, but it was really good. I can say as far as shojo goes it's a very unique story. I never expected the plot to become a fairly realistic look at temptation in a relationship. Truthfully, I can't see why everybody blames Mio for the events of the manga. To me, it seems like learning through your first real love for all three of the main characters. These young teenagers have never felt these emotions or gone through these things before, so they all made mistakes. When I ... look at it in that capacity, and seeing that everyone learned from their bad choices in the end, I can be happy with the ending to this bittersweet story that made our protagonists grow.

Overall the manga was okay. Thought it was gonna be something different based on the beginning 2 chapters but turns out the majority was very basic and generic. That being said I didn't hate it as it was one of those light drama with minimal drama with I really appreciate. All was going well till the very last chapter. I completely hated the ending. The book should've been named 180 degree as the character towards the end felt like they were completely different people to me. That last chapter was a disappointment as the minimal drama shoujo decided that it wanted to add a bit ... of spice to the story for its big ending. Well they were wrong. Should've kept it that way it was and maybe I would've like it more but the ending just left a bad taste in my mouth. Started from being a sweet fluffy cotton-candy esque story to an alright candy corn to being the stale leftover mint candy you forgot in your purse for 5 years.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the other two reviews for this manga- I am not a hater, I honestly judge manga. And when I added this manga to my manga list I gave it a one upon completion. It is bad. I read this manga over a long period of time so I can't remember some details too clearly, but overall it wasn't good, not at all.

Art
The art is mediocre, the main character, Mio, looks like any other main heroine picked up off the street. She isn't cute. Taki looks a bit refreshing but other than that he is average with his ... generic black hair. It is almost always like that in shoujo manga, the main male lead has slightly messy black hair and the main female lead has average light colored hair. The art wasn't bad but it wasn't great either.

Characters
Main female lead who can never seem to tell the guy she likes what she's thinking about, your generic every day heroine in every aspect. I cannot remember any defining features about her at all.
Main male lead is kind of cooler than the female lead, but for once he isn't a jerk. He isn't that ignorant either. But he does jump to conclusions sometimes to create drama. I can't remember anything remarkable about him either.
There are the two sidekicks of the female lead, they have their own live but the story rarely concentrates on them, they are just there for moral support. The other side male characters are there for comedy or to bring the two leads together.
There is an annoying (spoiler I guess) rival. I don't think that spoils much it happens in every shoujo known to man. He acts like every other rival.

Story
Such a generic story. I thought at first it was going to be different, but no, I was wrong. Drama is created over and over again without purpose. There is rarely a happy moment and if there is one it seems fake and I cannot even feel happy for them. There are also all of the signs that something is going to go wrong by the next page. Most of the drama is caused by the male love rival and for a bit a female love rival. Typical. I never grew to love the characters. It was all very boring, it was a pain to read.

Overall
Don't waste your time reading this manga. You will get nothing out of it. You could read another shoujo manga and it'd be like you already read this one. It is full of tropes and uninteresting characters. Stay away from this manga.
