It's the best manga I've ever read. And I've read a LOT of manga, from greats like Dragon Ball to I-only-this-read-for-the-sex-at-the-end like "Idol na kanojo to otaku na boku to". The fact that there hasn't been any good medium about Go since Hikaru no Go tells you all about how good the authors were at turning the boring game of Go (it's not actually boring) into an award-winning manga that brought in a massive influx of new players to the game. Oh man it's just so good. I think I might have an orgasm just thinking about it.

Story: Perfection. Some might say it could go ... on a bit longer though.
Art: It's the artist for Death Note. He good.
Character: I have to deduct one point here because of the lack of female characters. Even the two main females aren't as developed as the other characters.

Smooth story, every chapter is exciting, I don't even think there is any filler. I don't know how realistic the "lessons" are, but from my limited experience they seem actually useful.

Amazing art. The character expressions are outstanding, even if a bit over-the-top. ("manga" literally means "exaggerated drawing", isn't it?)

The characters are well drawn, well written. The main characters developed naturally but some sub characters are ... somewhat forgotten. This manhwa could go on for at least 30 more chapters if the author expanded on the other characters beside the main couple. They have their own story but sadly was never touched.

My enjoyment would be ... 10/10 if there were more "ecchi" scenes between the main couple, but otherwise I enjoyed this.

Totally worth reading no matter who you are, it's a short and sweet love story at its core.

Are you a male over 20 years old? then this is probably not for you (or it is, if you enjoy teengirl-ish stuff).

Someone said this was a good romance manga and it has a very high score here so I kept reading (up to chap 40 atm). Well I have to say this is a good manga if you like slice of life stuff, but any guy with a little bit of testosterone left in him should probably read something else. I mean when you read a manga and:

- There are more chibi drawings than actual drawings.
- The guys are as skinny and as ... pretty as the girls. They also seem to have a lot of "intimate" moments with each other.
- Any "drama" that pops up gets solved quickly, usually in too convenient ways. (three guys tried to mess with a girl, her friend stared at them and they just ran away!. In real life there would have been a fight and that friend would've got his ass whooped because it was 3v1).
- Adults are way too cool and supportive. Also somewhat too childish for their age.
- The next chapter seems to just ignore whatever happened in the last one.
- The fanbase. Some of the comments I've read:
+ KYYY-FREAKIN-AHHH!!! DAMN IT THEY'RE SOOOOOOOOO FREAKIN CUTE!!! ♥ (lol sr :v) (recmt)
+ waahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.kyahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..im like a super fan girl to screammmm.kekekeke
+ So Cute*Cough Cough Too Cute...Ugh...Err.. *Dies
+ And I'm still single...
+ I'll probably never be in a relationship like this...

This manga had a plot at first, then after around chapter 26 the plot is replaced by random chapters about random things.

I suppose it's my fault for reading a manga not written for me, but please make a tag that says something about who's supposed to read this. "Shonen" is just ... inaccurate.

Forewarning: This reviewer is 25 years old and have only read like three serious shonen romance manga his entire life.

I picked this manga after reading Dome X Kanojo because they're similar and to chill down the emotions I got from that manga. Ended up binged through all 27 volumes in nearly one month.

It was quite an emotional roller coaster, especially the early-mid chapters and the last few. My reactions were shifting constantly between "that's so romantic ~" and "WTF why would you do that?!". This is why I and many people have a love/hate relationship with this manga.

The general consensus seems to be that the ... manga got worse after a certain arc, but I do not think so. The chapters after that arc feel a bit slower but still have progress and character development, though hard to see if you get distracted by the fillers (261 chapters but only about TWO events are actually of significant importance). What I quite dislike about this manga though, are the sudden changes that didn't have enough build-up to them. Dramas popped out of no where then got resolved relatively fast in ways that feel a bit too convenient. There are a few exceptions, of course.

Story: the main methods of developing the story seem to be "a character making terrible decisions", "misunderstandings" (there are a lot of them) and "adding new characters" (most of whom are female, probably to cater to the shonen demographic). I imagine it would be quite annoying for people who have read many manga that do this, but I am a newbie to shonen romance so I didn't mind. The romantic moments are really touching, too.

Art: Awesome and unique, though in certain angles in some scenes the characters look weird.

Characters: Most of the characters seem to not change much from start to finish, each keeping their own unique personality throughout (except for a certain character who goes back and forth between shy and free-spirited). The main character, Haruto, is your typical country bumpkin who is naive but can be brave at times. His slow pace of development despite having the most appearance annoy a lot of people, including me.

(possible spoiler?)

To be frankly honest, after things settled between the protagonists the only thing I enjoyed were their romantic scenes. I don't think I have read a manga where a couple love each other this much.

I was looking for some fap material when I stumbled upon this. Then I got hooked and forgot my original "goal".

The story: is frustrating at times but it gave me some strong feelings that even real life people haven't. It could be because I haven't read many romance manga though. One thing I don't like is that sometimes the author get lazy and create events that are too convenient to solve the problems instead of a step-by-step progress.

The art is great except for the males characters being a bit too "shoujo" for a shounen manga.

The characters: Well. This is where readers divide. First discussion point ... is the main male character. This guy sometimes acts really dumb, especially at the beginning, but the author is amazing at showing the progress in which he changes himself. Then there is the main focus of the whole manga: the two sisters. Two opposite personalities, living in the same house with the male protagonist. Try not to be too drastic with your favoritism for one girl and you'll have less frustration while reading.
The support characters are unique and have their own story, which is a nice bonus.

As a young male adult, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed reading this manga.

Some advice: Try to have an open mind while reading this. You will very likely join one "team" or the other, but don't quit just because things seem rough for yours.

The "DEAD" in the title says a lot about this manga.

Gore is an extremely important element of this manga, so if that's not your thing, don't bother. Otherwise it's a great manga, though the latest arc had a lot of people confused and/or disappointed.

The art style is pleasant to the eyes. Some characters look a bit similar though, which is pretty much the case for most manga.

I personally like this manga because of the pretty and unique characters, the unexpected events and, to a lesser extend, the gore.

Conclusion: this manga is totally worth your time, unless you hate gore.

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!

Just when I'm starting to move away from manga to manhwa, this one held me back.

The author is a genius. He knows what the readers want. And his art style is amazing. AMAZING.
The story is just as awesome, I don't think I've ever managed to predict any event in this manga correctly. The unpredictability is VERY strong with this one.

You may be annoyed at certain characters at times, but believe me, they get better!

I think I'm addicted. I even read the Japanese version just to be sure I'm not missing anything, despite my almost-non-existent Japanese.
...
Go ahead and read this, it's totally worth your time, even if you're running for president of the USA.

Edit: as of April 6th, 2018: The first arc is still 10/10, then it's a downhill from there.
