Sensei! is a beautifully written manga from the author of Koukou Debut and despite difference in the artistic style both art and story compliment each other nicely. And it adds to the manga's charm and, dare I say, allure. I started reading this after reading Koukou Debut and despite the initial confusion (due to the art - at one point I thought that a different illustrator was involved, I'm assured there isn't) I found myself really enjoying this particular manga.
As the title suggests the manga is about a teacher, or more specifically, a student-teacher relationship. This is an excellent
example of a story which is not afraid to explore rather taboo subject matter. Rather than being too intense the story progresses at an easy pace that isn't too heavy for the reader to digest. If anything it's rather compelling. At it's current pace, it just makes you want to read more and more.
I'm not usually one to actually read teacher/student romance manga, because quite often they aren't done all that well and slightly on the unrealistic side, but this one's a rare gem that doesn't magnify the necessary melodrama that comes with such a relationship, and keeps things very sweet and real.
