In almost every same-sex romance manga there's always more than one gay couple. Gay co-workers, classmates, or even siblings. The gay characters are surrounded by other gay people. "You gay? Me too!!"

Story: Unfortunately a very generic beginning. A small cute girl falls in love with the star of the basketball team and decides to become a manager. Frankly this is the laziest way to write romance... There's no passion, no surprises, no originality. The dating and slice-of-life is also very generic. Rain leads to a fever, which means a home visit and rice-porridge. This manga is full of the things you always see in manga. ... The story has practically nothing that is making it stand out, except for the fact that it's about two girls. I guess that the only good thing about the plot is that you know exactly what you will get. No freaky plot-twists like "omg, we are siblings!?", just a boring but predictable story that will take you to the exact ending you've seen before.

Art: I guess the selling point of this manga is the art. The art is good and eye catching. It has cute chibi art, adorable facial expressions and a great cover image. No fan-service at all, so the cuteness is the focal point. Unfortunately, they don't use the flowery screentones to match the cuteness. But yeah, I bought this manga because of the art, I enjoyed it because of the art. But in the end, that's not enough.

Overall. This manga played it safe. The first meeting, the events happening in the middle and eventually the ending. It's all about scenarios that have been done before and proven to work. Nothing new or interesting. There's no excitement. It's just about following the train-tracks that so many other romance manga have traveled before. Boys Love / Girls Love manga is so common these days that it's impossible to find the truly good ones. And while this one was at least worth price I payed, it's not a story worth recommending...
