Whether you'll like this manga or not mainly depends on the following:
If you like those kinds of romances in which the guy that the girl is in love with keeps making fun of her which in turn makes her really angry, but in serious situations the guy is super nice to her - then this is the perfect manga for you. If not, you should probably read something else ;)

Characters: The (three) main characters are very likable + believable. Junichi, the seemingly egocentric but actually very caring guy, Yuuhi, who is torn between her love and hate for him, and Minato, the reliable and hardworking ... little sister. The side characters stay one-dimensional, but are still likable.

Art: The characters are well designed and drawn with great detail throughout the whole series. The backgrounds get less attention, but since it's mostly just classrooms or a living rooms, I didn't mind. Overall the style is pretty clean, which is a big plus for me.

Story: A heartwarming romance that does an excellent job depicting the characters' thoughts and feelings, making you really care about them. The ending is great!

Overall, I found the manga to be very solid and much more satisfying then the Anime. The story is pretty straightforward and primarily focuses on romance. It's basically your typical love triangle manga with the necessary twists, HOWEVER, it's not as twisted as the anime.

Considering it was only 11 chapters long, I was pleasantly surprised that the manga ended the way it did. Unlike the anime, the manga will not pull the rug from under your feet. I don't want to drop anymore hints, but I will say this though, if you didn't like the way the anime ended, you will ... probably like the way the Manga ended. To be more specific, you will either like it or hate it depending on whether you're on team Yuuhi or team Minato.

If there was no Anime and it was just the manga, I would probably have the overall score somewhere around 8 or 7, but I have to give it a solid 9 due to the fact that I HATED the way the anime ended while I liked the direction the manga went.

I must say that this was awful... There was very little character growth, and it was typical. The only thing that set it apart from the other useless harems was...oh..wait...NOTHING. The anime is most certainly worth watching, However, the manga is NOT worth reading.

Story 1/10
