| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- I didn't expect him to ask for an elopement which took their relationship another step forward. Pretty sweet short little story, it's a happy ending after all. |
| I was shocked to see what the father was doing. Really such a terrible parent, but that ending kinda left me wanting maybe just one afterwards chapter. At least they're happy now. |
| Oo, so Rio's dream is to become a ordinary bride. How sweet ^^ A pleasant yet short series. I'll rate this a 6/10 and dreams can come true if you follow you heart. |
 |
| Sweet series.... |
 |
| That was good. I wanted a reunion but the phone call scene was really nice so it's all right. |
| This was a great story. Rio so innocent and sweet carrying the burden of an adult at a young age and having a dream of being a bride when she gets older was sweet. This is one of the best stories I've read even though it was short. |
 |
| Sweet short series. Loved the art and the characters and the whole atmosphere of the story. It was unpredictable at times and overall it was very pleasant to read. 8/10 |
 |
| Really nice story, maybe in time they'll turn it into longer series like Koe no Katachi. |
| Very good story. :') I love it. Sweet and inspiring. |
 |
| Aww, finish already, could have shown us what see looks like now. But hey overall it was touching and sweet! |
 |
| I can't believe her father was doing that... Well, it's was a great series. It's a shame that there wasn't a 2nd volume. |
 |
| Wasn't even good. |
 |
| aw. a heavy one for a 12yearold girl. the decisions they took were difficult at that. good manga, even though it only has 5 chapters, it was able to deliver the issues they had to deal with. :) 8/10. :) |
| I thought the ending was pretty good. Was kinda surprised by the whole secret about their grandfather, thinking it might have turned into a mystery story. The father should get locked away for child abandonment charges. Natsuru looked like he was either playing in an official school soccer game, or might have been in one of the Under 1X soccer teams. Really got the feels close to the end there. A lot packed into just 5 chapters. The only thing that could make this perfect or really feel more complete, would be an epilogue, or further time-skip, where they actually do meet up again...wanted to at least see her face again. But from the looks of her new environment, seems like all we can tell from is she's still at that children's home as they call it (I assume nicer was of saying orphanage, or child-care facility). Dammit, even just one more page could have done it. Oh well, it was still a good read. |
| Such a sweet series.. I love it. I hope Rio and Natsumi can have a bright future ahead of them, they deserve it. The manga was so greatly drawn that I thought I was there myself.. kudos to the mangaka. This is certainly a series I will remember for a long time. |
| Original, I'd say. Mixed feelings about it, but overall I did enjoy it. Didn't expect that to be the secret though. Need more tall girls in shoujo. |
| At least there was a phone call. Good short series. |
 |
| With only 5 chapters, this was very good. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| I let go a sigh of relief after that phone call at the end there. I dont think my heart could have taken a sad ending where they had to split. This was a great manga. |
 |
| This short was good, predictable but really good :) Almost wanted to have it lasted longer - but that would just kill the ...hm... magic? Doesn't matter it was good and the phone call was the piece that closed it nicely - some mangakas should learn such endings :) |
| I was hoping a bitter ending but it's still a good read nonetheless. |
| Ended nicely, satisfying. |
 |
| Oh my gooooosh. That was so sad it made me cry. Ugh, and that terrible father! He reminded me of Hiroshi from Michiko to Hatchin, which is about as terrible a father as you can get. OK, I've stopped crying now. Amazing story. I wish it could have been even longer. 8 or 9 out of 10. |
| "It's a tragic misunderstanding that could have been easily avoided if he just finished his sentence in time!" — Richard Watterson (The Amazing World of Gumball) |
| Godamnit! Why do so many good manga so damn short ;_;. Anyway amazing manga, 9/10 for me and at least they meet again. |
| Get together ='). All dem onions over here ='( |
| How did these women knew the full name of Natsuru? since police has brought his mom immediately? even if he told them he was "Nanao Natsuru", to look for a person you have to know the kanji for their name and not just how it sounds. but a person in such situation wouldn't tell people his full name anyway that'd be stupid. how did Rio survive with her brother? how much exactly their father left? i don't think he'd leave that much since they were already poor as shit when he decided to go. When Rio and Natsuru started to hang out it was already 3 months since her father left and she had a good haircut. why suddenly she is with bad haircut? okay her hair grow slowly. but what is the need for a haircut at all if you can't do it properly? girls are fine with long hair aren't they. And my main complaint - even if you are 12 surely you can understand that if you call police on your dead grandpa they won't just take you away like that, first they will find your dad. for gods sake. it's easy. Rio is not brave she is nuts for making her little brother live near the decomposing corpse of their grandpa. 4/10 i knew the "boobie rubbing" in the first chapter was a bad sign. |

| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| Dang when I saw the father in such way, it really shocked me. It ruined all his imagine and shit. 6/10, good short manga. |
| no future chapter, rip |
| Hopefully both their wishes come true and they become an ordinary soccer player and bride respectively. It definitely a movie worthy material if they ever made one. Perfect length, plot and sweet open ending. |
| Well them keeping in touch was a good sign. I would have liked to see a more conclusive ending personally, but hopefully what was there implied that they would get together when they were older. Frankly, considering all they went through together, I'd be super disappointed if they didn't. rizuxizu said: Hopefully both their wishes come true and they become an ordinary soccer player and bride respectively.

Yes, this would be great as a movie, though I would want a more conclusive ending personally. |
| Short but sweet. The beautiful art helped carry it. Overall I give it a 7. Not exceptional but it held my attention. Probably because I liked the themes. It reminded me a lot of Erased. The Gods Lie could have benefited from more chapters or volumes. As I got towards the end I saw the pages dwindling and thought to myself "how are they going to sum this up in so few pages". I found the ending was satisfactory but a bit meh. The author could have done more with it. Even a sequel volume with a time jump romance, if executed well, could have been really cute. Also, what was with Natsuru rubbing his Mother's breasts in chapter 1?! At 11 years old that's just weird. Maybe it was to demonstrate how he matures during the story... And why did he prefer to call her by her first name rather than Mum? I thought maybe she was actually his sister at first but the story does show she is his Mother. |
| Short, sweet and entertaining until the very end. This story simpler and more archetype-driven than what would be ideal for a work that aims for realism, but I had a blast reading it. Good manga doesn't have to be ambitious. EDIT: What are you guys talking about? We saw her face again. |

NO WAY." - Kanye West |
| That was a sweet short series, At least they still have a communication to each other. 8/10 |
 |
| Honestly, it felt so short. First 3 chapters were pretty much normal fluff stuffs before taking a darker turn, which doesn't really pay off much because we don't see much of development or consequences from it. Kinda a bit disappointed tbh, since I'd expect some development for the MCs than just getting separated and then a time jump. |
 |
| Felt so bad for her when she saw her dad. Overall this was a very enjoyable read. 8/10 |
 |
| Damn I quite liked this actually. Liked the characters a lot, and how much they developed in such a short amount of time. |
| God, damn it. I wanted them to live together, but I hope they will marry in the future. Definitely in my top 3 manga list. 9/10 |
| Decent but forgettable. Wish there was more to it. I liked the MC though. |
| Rather disappointed, but still glad it didn't go "oyasumi punpun" route xD, the moment she saw her father, I was scared she'd do something...terrible So the story is basically, a boy saves a girl - the end. |
| Pretty good for something so short. Or maybe because it was short? It sure managed to suck me in and make me care for characters in those few chapters. I'm not exactly satisfied with that ending. Hoped for a reunion. It's good end at least I guess. |
| Not a bad story, but it felt kinda rushed tbh The ending was pretty open as well |
