This manga TRULY deserves a 10 for everything.
*Note, this is my first time making a MANGA review...and my reviews aren't too great in the first place anyway.*
Story: 10
Basically, it's about five adopted children whose adoptive parents died. After the parents' deaths, they all go their separate ways until one of the boys, the third child, Sakura, decides to reopen their parents' flower shop that has been closed for a year. Since he can't do it by himself, the story opens up with Sakura visiting each of his brothers and urging them to come back and help and work for the sake of their mother, who loved the flowers the most.
It is a very sweet and heartwarming story. For people who like slice-of-life mangas that are short yet complete in a plot, this is definitely a good read. The pure innocence of the whole thing, mixed with the occasional comedic bits and pieces, is truly genius. However, the ending is rather rushed, and may not be very appealing.
Art: 10
Personally, I loved the artwork. Everything was very detailed and the male characters are obviously something for bishounen fangirls to go crazy about. Not only that, but in slice-of-life mangas/animes, thinly drawn and tall characters are always a plus. (loved the little boy, Himawari!! Kawaii!!!!)
Characters: 10
The story is short, and therefore, not much background and flashbacks are given on the characters. Each has their little moments where you see a bit of the past that is known to them.
You see excellent character development for such a short story. At first, you can tell that the characters, although close to one another, are distant at first, and not as "open" (for lack of better words). As the story progresses, you see a definite change in everyone, especially for the fourth child, Tsubaki.
By the way, all the boys' names are flowers. The most obvious would be in the case of Sakura.
Enjoyment: 10
Add all my scores together and you get that two digit number, a perfect ten. Normally, I stop reading my mangas halfway through and pick up a new one, but this one made me very sad to stop. read more

They both have very flowery art and story line. They both also have the same manga-ka. If you like the art in this manga then otomen is pretty much the same.
