Have you ever had a childhood friend? That would always stick by you in times of need and maybe even fall in love with that person?

This is a story about 3 friends, 1 girl and 2 boys, can you see what's going to happen? It's a tad too obvious if i don't say so myself. It's too cliche of a thing to even know. I've seen it too many times you might say. Either way one of the friends is bound to get hurt.

How the author has done with the drawing style is none other that simple and stylish. A drawing style that i love ... but also very often seen. Sometimes the mangaka can become frustrated or even to tired, to even put the effort into it. As i read on the drawing becomes too weak and i can see the lack of detail that is placed in to the characters faces.

The characters are really straight forward, however i can not come to love even one of them. Why? the characters themselves are plain, and simple. The heroine in this manga could be said as naive and to thick headed to even know the boys feelings while they compete for the love of their childhood friend. However the mangaka has shown us what the characters are feeling but the lack of development and how the characters react with each other goes to fast because the mangaka is trying to rush something that shouldn't be rushed and that's

Love.

I can't deny though, that it entertains me to see how each character struggles on to win someones heart. It's filled with love and sometimes even pity for the heroine because of the ridiculous decisions that she has to make that maybe we will never get.

It's a short read and i will not hate. If the story line had a more stronger and a non-cliche plot i would love it even more. Everyone needs a little imagination than the same old boring story that is told over and over again.
