Same mangaka as Ichigo, and there are lots of character similarities drawn but the faces/body features are pretty much it, there are alot of different characters and its pretty ecchi too
same author, same premise, same delivery, same entertainment value with a refreshing twist of fanservice.

Comedy, Romance, Ecchi/Harem
Both are great Harem, Romance manga; Ichigo 100% is a Japanese one full of cliches moments but enjoyable characters, UxU is a Korean one full of pockets of drama and hot characters. ^_^

Jun 14, 2008167 of ? chapters read 16 of 20 people found this review helpful Ichigo 100% is consider a typical romance harem, but it is certainly an enjoying manga to read. While there are cliche moments along with above average artwork, the highlight to the manga involves the female protaganists featured in Ichigo 100%.
Typical female protaganists in harems would usually fall in love with the male protaganist but don't bring up much detail on their reasons. However, Ichigo 100% stands out different as a result. Each female protaganist in the manga ca...rries a special meaning towards their feelings of the male protaganist.
As the male protaganist searches out on who he is best suited with, he sometimes struggles when making that decision due to the fact that he doesn't want to see anyone get hurt emotionally. He also realizes that each female protaganist brings a side of him that he treasures as important. Based on my thoughts, it is difficult to not disregard any female protaganist because of the buildup on their love and care to the male protaganist.
The male protaganist eventually comes to a decision on who he ends up with. While the male protaganist in typical harems usually brings meaning on picking the one girl he wants to be with, this one just didn't stand out due to the fact he could have end up with a different girl and bring the same happy ending result.
Regardless though, Ichigo 100% is a manga worth checking out that would impress the harem fans.

Oct 30, 2007167 of ? chapters read 43 of 56 people found this review helpful Ichigo 100% is what you can call a classic Shounen, Harem, Ecchi, Romantic, Comedy manga having the typical set-up of, one "loser-kun" (Manaka Junpei) surrounded by gorgeous girls. It’s pretty easy to find this manga annoying, due to the dragged out storyline and loser protagonist but it’s just as easy to find it rather enjoyable, from the various potential relationships involved.
The story starts of with our protagonist somehow ending up with the hottest gir...l in the school and this being a Shounen Rom/Com makes it acceptable. Now with the dumbest thing taken care of, from this point on the reader can enjoy a really long manga full of clichés. Some points in the story are really dragged out, with no progression whatsoever, but the various themes (aspirations, movies, etc.) are what give Ichigo 100% a refreshing feel. The romantic element of the manga is pretty well done because the relationships the protagonist gets himself into are all different and somewhat believable (well half of them at least). One thing to enjoy about Ichigo 100% is how well it promotes speculation, because it isn’t certain who the indecisive protagonist would end up with.
When looking in the artwork it’s easy to see how average it looks in the beginning. Although as the manga progresses, so does the artwork, with some great character close-ups. Like in most Rom/Coms all the detail is put into the female character designs, which is really good when looking at their individual features and how it matches their varying personalities. Nonetheless the guys aren’t as important, with not as much detail put into them, though at least the mangaka did a good job in expressing the character’s emotions. Shame this is an ecchi manga, littered with "panty shots".
Overall this ecchi manga doesn’t stand out because of its artwork or story but rather how enjoyable it is to read, being the only reason why anyone would read all 19 Volumes. The likable characters and romantic developments are all the more reasons to think of this as one of the best harem manga of all time; however all the unnecessary clichés and panty shots may turn some people of. Well I personally loved this, which is why overall I would give it 10/10.

Nov 3, 2008167 of ? chapters read 3 of 5 people found this review helpful Ichigo 100% is a fine example of a romantic (ecchi) comedy with many predictable and moments. Regardless of what I just said, it is still a very good manga especially for fans of this genre.
The beginning of the story is very similar to other harem mangas where an average joe ends up falling for the hottest girls in school and as the story progresses more girls become attracted to him, however even though it shares many common moments with other mangas, ichigo 100% still has some ...moments that are unique to this manga so for that I'll give the story a passing grade since there are some moments where I really felt the emotions of the characters.
The artwork of the manga is not the best I've seen but still looks great. The female characters are exceptionally well made particularly in the face and other parts that attract the attention of the intended readers.
The character development is also very good because it really shows the emotions the characters have for each other. Each girl has her own unique reason for liking the main character and I found it hard to have a favorite since all the girls have a very good detailed background.
Probably the thing that I didn't like the most about this manga is the last few chapters where it felt like it was rushed and things became confusing at some point. Although I like surprises, I was actually quite disappointed with the finale but that's just my opinion because the girl I was fond of the most was not chosen.
Overall Ichigo 100% is a very very enjoyable manga especially if you're a guy and thus I highly recommend it for fans of the genre. It has a lot of funny, heart warming, heart breaking and of course ecchi moments (in my opinion maybe just a little too much ecchi moments).
