(If you read and liked "Hanatsuki hime" you will most likely enjoy "Ipaasha", and vice versa.)
Overall - For a one-shot, Ipaasha was very well thought-out and the characters were developed at just the right pace.

It's shoujo and supernatural, so I guess you can't expect it to make perfect sense, but I wish the author had made things a bit more clear. I loved the idea of "what if" and "regret", but the story isn't a downer, so it's not something to immediately doubt reading; there's a happy ending. It is a

This is a worth read manga. The stories could stand individually because they show different plot lines and unpredictable plot that makes you want to continue reading.
Story: 10 Kamisama no Sonata The way the story started is typical but the second it continued is amazing. It was enchanting on how it started and ended.
