Synopsis

Anna Koshiro has been friends with two handsome guys, Sou and Hinata, since childhood. She has a crush on Enamoto, a first-year high schooler, but she has difficulty finding a boyfriend as everyone always wonders about the relationship between Anna, Sou and Hinata.

One day, she goes to Sou's house and finds out that Sou has a girlfriend. She is not jealous, but she feels like she has lost him. On the other hand, Sou's girlfriend is upset about how Anna comes into Sou's room so freely and asks Sou not to let Anna into his room again. However, Sou disagrees and ends their relationship. Anna decides to overcome the odds and confesses to her crush. Enamoto accepts, but upon finding out that Anna has a boyfriend, Sou gets upset.

On their first date, Anna finds herself in her room with Enamoto. She tells him about something that happened in the past: She once had a chipmunk named Coco, and when it died, Sou and Hinata brought her another chipmunk and telling her it was Coco. Her mother had told her to treasure Coco as the two of them had used their own money to buy Anna another chipmunk.

Enamoto then shocks Anna by asking which one of them she likes. After she replies that the one she likes is him, Enamoto tries to kiss her but Anna gets scared. She wants to call for Hinata and Sou but she can't. They both suddenly appear after Anna kicks Enamoto away. Of course, she cannot continue dating him after what happened. Although she can't get what Enamoto asked out of her head, Anna is sure that the she will never be anything more than friends with Hinata and Sou. But what will happen when Sou confesses his love to Anna and asks her to go out with him?

I really loved this Manga, and I couldn't stop reading it until I finished it. I enjoyed it so much. It's captivating, it's funny and there were several moments where my heart skipped a beat. But the ending for me was a bit sad... (even though it was supposed to be happy).

[SPOILERS AHEAD]

She loved both Sou and Hina, and both of them really loved her too. But I feel like with Hinata there was something missing.

Hinata only kept a distance from Anna because he was afraid that Sou would get hurt. He was doing it for Sou. He didn't think about Anna's feelings. Sou ... did the opposite. He decided to put his own feelings aside because he kept Anna’s feelings on sight. Because he thought Anna would be happier being with Hinata, he supported their relationship. Of course he did it for Hinata as well (they were best friends after all), but the fact that he was always looking at Anna (even at a distance sometimes) was what touched my heart. He would always do everything thinking about her…

While Hinata was always running away from his fears (like when he didn’t tell Anna he liked her, when he was in a weird relationship with Mari-sensei, or when crazy Mari-sensei was back again in the story at his new school and he hided it from Anna), Sou was standing still, facing all his problems and fears. Even though it must have hurt him so much, Sou kept thinking about what would be best for Anna in every situation and doing everything he could over and over again. And even when he decided to keep a distance from Anna (which may seem selfish at first), he did it so she could work things out with Hinata, because he knew she liked him.

I wish the person Anna chose to be with was the one that not only she loved (since she loved both), but also the person who stood up for her the entire story. Sou was always there for her in the moments she needed, she was always his priority. He cherished her the most, so I was really sad for him at the ending.

I feel like Hinata was Anna’s first love, and like all first loves, he was really important to her and made a huge impact in her heart. But life happens and feelings change. And all that confusion in her head was that she didn’t realized what was going on yet. She loved Hinata first, they decided to become a couple and thinking rationally, she should be happy. But she wasn't. She liked Hinata for so long, fought so hard for him, and now that it was all settled, why wasn't she happy? Because after all the things that happened, Sou conquered a bigger place in her heart. Sou was her new love. Her feelings have changed and now she liked Sou the best. And I think the Manga ended right in the middle of her realizing all that.

Mixed Feelings

I finished reading Love-Berrish! so I look up the author's other works because I like her drawing. Then I found Stardust★Wink and thought I should read it since its already complete. So here's my review after finish all the chapters.

(( SPOILER AHEAD ))

STORY - 5
I like the first chapters, but after I read more of it I got bored. Cause it's the same thing over and over again. The lead characters cannot choose who she likes or rather doesn't understand her feelings, and got all the guys sad (& mad). So she fought with Hinata and didn't talk for almost a year (or half, I ...

Preliminary (17/54 eps)

Let me say first, that I already read the other reviews and I wasn't surprised that they weren't satisfied with it. (Because I wasn't, for many reasons.)

Also I'm not yet finished, but I was in the part where Hinata left already. (Thankfully this happened, Hinata doesn't serve so much purpose when it comes to love. Rather, it takes him time to even tell Anna that he likes her.)

The art is okay, but the story, and the characters aren't.
It's just the same thing over and over again.
Anna keeps on crying like a child, it's annoying. (I like strong heroines)
The two guys, Hinata and Sou, don't ...
