I think the concept for this manga is pretty simple, bu surprisingly new. It's basiclaly a comedy about a woman who is so pretty that all men immediately fall in love with her and it's about how this impacts her everyday life. This gives comedic situations like where she usually dresses up as obscue characters or monsters so people don' see her beauty or recognizer her. It also has a dramatic edge, that's where the title comes from "I mostly cry", which is apparently what she does when she is alone. This is because due to her beauty she is also socially isolated, women envy
...
her and all men are obsessed with her.
Unfortunately, for me atleast, this manga is a bit ruined by the Japanese humor. Though the comedy I described above also works pretty well for a western audience, most of the jokes are obscure references to Japanese media that, even if you know the reference, are not that funny.
Artwise it's so-so, the backgrounds are clearly just photos done through a filter ir drawn over quickly. The character art however is very well done in my opinion, expressions are some of the best I have seen and the beauty and elegance of the main character are portrayed excellently for instance. For a comedy manga I would say the art is excellent, taking into account other manga it's above average.
Overall I wouldn't really recommend this over other works of Higashimua Akiko, Kakukaku Shikajika is still her masterpiece and other works like tokyo tarareba girls and yukibana no tora are more interesting than this.
