I am almost certain that we all are waiting for the next chapter of our beloved story to arrive. But, let's see why we fell in love with 'Orange' in the first place. Now, this is simply out of curiosity, but as a devoted 'Orange' reader, I wanted to know more of how we all came to the same page.

My story is nothing as tragic, beautiful or at all special as 'Orange' is, but I found 'Orange' on the 'MyAnimeList' "Top Manga" page. I am an avid reader of romantic manga series and a hopeless romantic myself, but I find it difficult to find a very series that matches my taste and style. And soon seeing such a manga series holding No. 14 on the list, it was almost definite that I was going to fall in love.

And that is my story, now it's your turn.

I have to say I'm one of those orange fans that regularly checks and wishing for chapter update almost everyday. It really is one of the best manga I've ever read, and I've read hundreds of different genres. Orange happens to be in my top five and the one I ALWAYS recommend to my friends.

The reason I like Orange is because it has the elements of typical shoujo/drama manga with love triangle, friendship, school and tragedy-ish. But what makes me love it is the twist of having that "multiple realities" and how the author managed to tug with my emotions and makes me love the characters. Oh and, because it's a nice escape when I'm reading a manga that I can't really predict the ending.

I came across this manga by accident as well. Pretty sure it was because I ran out (and got bored) of mangas to read and clicked "new manga" tab in one of the mangaweb. And tadaaaa! fell in love with it instantly! :D

How I find Orange:

I always see this manga in everybody's manga recommendation list. I know it for a long time but you may not believe me, I thought the manga was lame. I thought it was just another group of high school students in love, friendships and all. I also thought that the title was plain enough but... I was so, so, so wrong!

I did not just thought of these things but it made me so curious why everyone is recommending this. So when I look up to the MAL's Top Manga page, I can't believe it ranked 14th. Maybe people like it so much? Maybe it was so good? So when I finally decided, I thought I'll give it a try.

And no wonder why people are recommending this, it was awesome. I was in love with the art, with the characters, the story, everything! I actually took a break of watching or reading shoujo romance mangas because I always think they are all the same. But Orange is different. I like sad yet beautiful stories (even it played with my feelings or weep in the corner), I like it.

As the creator of the club, I just want to say that Orange is not like the others. This story is totally unique. It is one of the best romance manga that has ever created and this just need an attention to let everyone know how incredibly wonderful the story is. This is why I made this club.

For all people who also knew about the beauty of Orange, this club is not just about it but I'm also thankful for Takano Ichigo that she was be able to write such tragedy love story. She is seriously the best and I don't have any regreats reading this manga :)

I knew about Orange when Crunchyroll added in their manga catalog and the synopsis cought my attention completely, I felt so curious about a letter coming from the future to save a person (I like the time travels and parallel worlds themes, it gets a touch of mistery). So, I read 10 chapters in a row and OMG, I loved the art, the story and the characters, I felt a lot of emotions while reading: from happiness to sadness to happiness again, I also felt angry sometimes xD. And I cryed a lot, for both happiness and sadness (I love that that's happens to me while reading/watching something). It's a beautiful, warm, but tragic story with good character development and full of emotions well transmitted to the reader.

Now I'm waiting my monthly dosis of Orange with eagerness >3<

Oh, surprisingly enough, have you watched 'Steins;Gate'?! It has almost the exact same time-travel theory as the one based in 'Orange'. It isn't as emotionally captivating as 'Orange', but definitely not non-existent. It also has a "very" slow start - explaining the entire concept of the time machine - but, gosh, is it "worth" it! Characters, story-line, and the art isn't too shabby either.

But if you have watched it, do tell me what you think. I, personally, find it to be my most favorite anime series I have watched thus far - not that it is very impressive out of the amount of anime I have seen to this point in time. It's probably the time travelling, 'parallel worlds' and mystery that captivates me to both 'Steins;Gate' and 'Orange.

I somehow stumbled upon Orange during one of the times I was randomly surfing on this site. I saw it in the favourite mangalist from someone and I couldn't help but check it out. The title had me interested immediately. (I was thinking something along the lines of 'why is this named after a fruit?'. I didn't think of the colour at that time haha.)

The summary was interesting and I decided to go read it despite preferencing a psychical copy to read. Heck, this was the first manga I read online and the second one I ever read.

Time travelling, parallel worlds and romance combined is something unique and on top of that it's heartbreaking too. The characters are easy to relate to, especially the MCs, and I really want Kakeru to be saved. I get so engrossed in the story. The art is really pretty too, I was amazed at how beautiful it is.

After I read all chapters in one go, I got really sad when I found the news that it was on hiatus. But, I quickly found that the hiatus was over after I searched a bit more. I was really happy after that!

I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapters~

I was just looking through the manga on Crunchyroll, then I saw Orange. I went through the comments on it and a lot of people were saying it was really good. However, all the manga on Crunchyroll are for premium members, so I just went on mangahere and found it.
