Remember when you first started to write stories in school? There was this guidline given by your teacher about where exactly should the climax be and how exactly should you bulid it? Crazy For You is like that guidline for tangled relationships.
This is not a bad thing. All this means is the plot is simple.
But what it does do is make the plot very, very cliche. You are introduced to five characters who you soon find out become intwined in complicated love relationships. By the time volume 1 is finished, it is quite apparent where the plot is headed. Still, as this is as basic

Crazy for you is a typical story of a girl falling deeply with a troubled guy?! Cliche yes!? However, this story has a certain charm to it!? it made me laugh, cry and frustrated at the same!?
I read the story at one go!? The characters development is somewhat slow but i think it is a perfect pace for this particular storyline!? The characters go through trials of love, hatred, jealously and JUST DRAMA ALL AROUND!? The main character is amazing she is strong-willed, average looking, cute and does what she wants?! Even though she may seem weak, stupid and dense at times but ...

I bought all volumes of this series at one go when I realised it was by the same mangaka as Kimi ni Todoke, which is a series I've fallen madly in love with. Never before have I regretted a purchase this much. Everything about Crazy for You, with the exception of the art, was a disappointment.
STORY 5/10 We follow Sachi, a cheerful and somewhat naive girl who has never had a boyfriend. One time, she goes out on a group date, meets Yuki and falls madly in love. Her friends try to warn her that he'll just break her heart, but she chooses to spend more ...

"...don't you dare look back!"
Crazy For you reminded me of Peach Girl, but in this one, there weren't any mean/bad characters that try to hurt each other. No, this one felt more real to me because the one doing the hurting are people you love, your own best friends. It's easy to engulf yourself in it when all the characters seem human, they mess up and their choices hurt people they love and they repent. Loving someone for years and then getting together to realize that you have both changed and there is no going back, no matter how much you want to. It's ...

At first, I read the review and then thought, Ok typical shoujo with decent art why not?
Then I got into the story. I just couldn't put it down. There is something about it. The plot may not be overly realistic but the characters and their emotions truly are. You really get behind the main character, she's pretty simple but there is something about the way she thinks, she's not stupid, she just knows who she is. You can't help but cheer for her. Love isn't something that just vanishes when another guy steps in, and there isn't always one right answer. These are some of ...

Well, there I was traveling through the manga portal as always looking at all kinds of manga, that's where I met Crazy for you, when I read the synopsis I thought, "ah, it must be those silly novel manga, which is good to pass The time and relax, but I was mistaken, all I have to say is that trash manga, horrible ... Let's start with the whys.
First, the story is totally cliché, which can not be considered so bad, but the characters are all jerks undecided and the whole manga is only about mediocre dramas and no fit for this whole drama, man, I've ...

Beautifully and realistically portrayed by the mangaka.
It won't tug at your heartstrings if you've read many shoujo mangas already, but I highly recommend it. There's something about the characters that make you keep wanting to read it, and all five are equally important to the plot. The female protagonist can be a bit too much of a saint, but nevertheless, one that is tolerable. This is one of the very few times I feel so connected to the characters, which is probably why it feels very bittersweet throughout. They teach you about true love, bravery, courage, determination, and the things in life that can't ...

I don't think it's really fair of me to write a review since at one point I became so frustrated/mad with the main character that I quit and read the end to see whom my favorite character(the only reason i kept reading this manga for so long xD) ended with...
I think almost all characters are well written except the main couple. I couldn't agree with their actions and eventhough i understood them it was uggghhh for me. If you like cliche, never stopping airheaded boys/girls then it's probably for you. Since I don't belong in that group it wasn't for me. |
