Yume Chu (Manga)

This is one of those stories you can read fairly fast and enjoy it, but it's not especially memorable. The plot develops quickly and it offers some nice characters and situations, with a good dose of romance and comedy.

Azuki feels she's quite unlucky in love. Because she's the daughter of the president of a talent agency, most of the guys she dates are only interested in her connections.

Still, she has a gift for discovering new talent, even though she's only 15. She loves her job as a producer behind the scenes for the agency, and is quite proud of an upcoming project, "Romeo School", a kind of reality show that will choose a new boy band. And even with her history with men, she can't help but feel attracted to one of the aspiring new stars, Souma Nakaido.

That's only the start of it; the manga also dwells in the personal conflicts of some of the other members of Romeo School and shows some very fictionalized view of the entertainment world. Nothing is too deep, and even the angsty situations are resolved quickly and simply.

I personally like the art style of this mangaka, although it's a bit irregular. At times very beautiful, at others a bit unkept.

Overall, it's a well invested time if you want to read something light and fun, without bigger expectations.
