College: A time for new friends and new loves—and getting confused about which is which. It seems like Suzuna is on track to land Eichi, the guy of her dreams. But her other new friend—the beautiful Hinako—has some interesting information regarding Eichi that's going to force Suzuna to take a second look at the whole situation. She's about to discover that love can come with some unexpected competition.

It's a great manga! If you like school's stories with love and funny situations, you have to read this manga. You'll enjoy it!

P.D.: I'm sorry if some words and frases are wrong, I'm spanish!

The art is not complex, though it is not simple nor ornately drawn. I'd say the art is just about right, allowing you to appreciate it while letting you pay more attention to what's happening in the story. The author really illustrates the character's read more
