I honestly love W-Juliet. It is one of my favourite mangas because,

The main girl character (Ito Miura) was not some cry baby like where all the other romance shoujo manga I've read where the girl cries about almost everything.

I'll be honest. I'm picky on art. I usually hate the stories where the male has to pretend to be a girl in a school since the outcomes are bad (in my opinion) but I happened to loved this one. Makoto's attitude with Ito is rather different compared to other mangas with the plotline and there is pretty good progress between Ito and Makoto. There's no cliche obstacles for them to overcome in order to build character. It's a really good classic to read and/or reread. Not to mention that there's a sequel continuing off to build their relationship even more.

W-Juliet is one of the most heartfelt, outstanding and underrated mangas I have ever come across.

The main part of the manga revolves around the theater club which Makoto and Ito are members of, and its basically said pretty nice to see that Emura created worlds within a fictional world. You can see that for example Swan Lake, got a total ...
