Mao comes to a new school, saves a boy who then starts calling her "prince". They become really close and the story revolves around their blossoming love. This story was cute, but not really original. The only twist was that she was his "prince" because she came to his rescue when they first met. It was still sweet though, so I enjoyed it. I liked Riku's character, he was optimistic, kind, and out-going, which is usually the girls role in shoujos. It was a good short read, with plenty of drama and some humor mixed in.

Reading it at first, I thought it would be a great story with the kind of girl with a strong personality. But as the first chapter progressed, I found myself dissappointed with her pathetic attitude. I find girls extremely annoying when they cry over petty reasons such as seeing a boy they like with another girl who could possibly be a girlfriend. After the first chapter, I just gave up and dropped the series.

Good gosh, what the heck did I just read?
This story is suited for younger girls. There is just no depth within the story and characters. There isn't much character development. The story is simple and predictable. Things aren't explained clearly and I know the author intended it to be like that, but it wasn't hidden well. It is sweet, and the art is wonderful. But the story was so distasteful that I wanted to spit it all back out. Good thing it was short. SPOILER: EVERYTHING WOULD'VE BEEN AVOIDED IF RIKU STEPPED IT UP. GAWD. The characters suck. |
