After starting to read the manga, it is easy to guess in which direction the story is going just by reading the first two chapters, but even then, I must say that the story of the manga touches the heart.

The author beautifully portrays the desire of a very timid and shy girl who wants to mix and talk with others normally, but due to her own weakness, she cannot. The author beautifully portrays her desire to talk to others, her deep longing for companionship, helplessness, and her own anxiety.

I feel no need to say anything more about the art, but I must say that the ... expressions of each character, the surrounding environment, and almost everything is portrayed in a way that resembles reality, which is truly commendable.

Furthermore, the plot of the manga, character development, and dialogues were also good.

So all in all, I enjoyed reading the manga immensely.

"I will not change the future, the past, as they are things that I felt that I had to do, maybe this is the so called inevitable fate."

Similar people has similar ways to interact, and through this story is about knowing someone through an imaginative cellphone. A rather simple story, about a lonely girl who is somewhat envious of people, and a kindhearted boy.

The characters were rather realistic on how they would approach a conversation through an cellphone of nonexistent, to doubt oneself's sanity when they could talk through this phone.The girl was a timid girl, but a girl that was looking to change. ... As they helped each other in the simplest ways, both of them started to change for the better, especially at the end the girl changed a lot.

This was quite enjoyable, though a bit cliche especially at the end, everything went as expected, but for some reason it was still very enjoyable. An ending that was somewhat cheesy, somewhat touching,,,. To anyone that likes drama, maybe this isn't necessary everyone's cup of tea, but for me... it was spot on.

I know my '7' overall rating does not compliment my positive review; its just as I read on, my guesses were always right which made me think that not alot of imagination went into the storyline. If the last chapter was different I would have given it an '8'.

The development of the characters was not rushed which made the manga seem longer than the one volume. It also does not concentrate too much on building a romantic feeling between Ryo and Nozaki (until the last chapter:); but concetrates more on character and storyline development. Due to this concetration of detail, we are able ton ... learn more about how the imagined phones work as well as the characters's past and drive to imagine a phone in their heads. Which I believe give the reader more reason to read on due to intrigue
