Now the art, I don't know what it was about it, but I just really liked it. It was definitely shoujo, but not TOO much. The eyes were fine in proportion to the faces, clothes were fine etc. And I loved the faces Sara would make. I guess it was her expressions that made the art enjoyable. ;P
Now, the characters are what made this manga standout amongst the myriad of other shoujos. Instead of being a carpet Sara is strongwilled and stands up for herself and her friends. She is a genuinely good person with a good heart. Hayase is also a nice guy who isn't afraid to say what's on his mind and, unlike most other shoujo guys, is actually NICE to Sara from the get-go. Sara and Hayase's friends Ryuusei and Makoto are good characters, but with the length of only two volumes they didn't get a chance to develop.
Overall, while the story isn't particularly original, the way it's carried is more unique than the bulk of other comedic/romantic/showbiz type manga. It's really a lot of fluff, but it doesn't make you gag. The comedy is really good and even when the very occasional cliche pops up you are easily able to forgive the mangaka. This is a very quick, light read and while not perfect, I highly suggest you to read.
8.5/10
