Half & Half is a love story that I can only imagine as tragic, yet beautiful. It has that classic Seo Kouji feel to it, that both brings in his delightfully intrinsic art style, and his fabulous characterization.

I started this manga on a whim, after completing another one of Seo Kouji's works (Kimi no Iru Machi) and found it to be both the shortest manga I have read in a long time, and the most heartbreaking. It is my new Shinichi Nagakawa and Yuuki Sanada are my new Romeo and Juliet.

If you are a hopeless romantic looking for something special; This is it!

Overall i'd recommend to read it, but keep in mind it's far from a masterpiece. I really didn't enjoyed the ending, not to mention all that scenes where the girl is cooking and then washing the dishes while boy just keeps smiling and thinking he could live like that forever...

While being a little short, this manga by Seo Kouji is a must read for any lover of romance.

Half & Half delights the reader with a good story that goes straight to the point, its art is simple, yet it manages to deliver sucessfully the whole range of emotions that the story needs. It could have been better, but it gets the work done.
The characters are really likeable, although, they may look cliche at the beginning, yet, we see them growing in the story until they reach their pinnacle of maturity.

In my opinion, it also has a few flaws. Maybe it lacked a little ...
