By the mangaka of Gokusen and Deka Wanko - this is top rate comedy that transcends it's genre and it's different from both of these previous works of hers but just as good or better, personally I think it's her best yet, but I really love this mangaka's humor.
Kei is a young woman with a vivid imagination of all things she sees. She is a daydreamer that spins fairy tale like imaginings out of all the things that happen around her. She seems quiet and a bit disconnected from everything else because she is off in her own little dream land, yet she is also a very sweet and caring person. She is quite an endearing type of heroine, and you can't help but like her. In fact, she really reminded me of my own best friend in real life. The main guy has a special ability, he can read minds and he finds hers very entertaining and fascinating.
Unlike many romances, this story is not just the story of the main mcs, but rather we have multiple protagonists and get the stories and back stories of parents, grandparents and siblings which makes this manga so much richer. Here we have a wonderful and unique oddball cast. First we have the 3 Koudai siblings who share the same gift. Then we have their parents and grandparents. There are also side characters that they know around town. So we get stories within a story and backstories with multiple mcs with multiple points of view and more than one romance. It has the genres of comedy and slice of life. This is a josei not a shoujo and it is a really wonderful one. If you are tired of the fare that most romances spread out, with school stories and triangles, please read this instead. You will be glad you did.
I am so glad that I found this, I truly love this and all the characters in it. I fell in love with it in the prologue and then I read 27 more chapters in a binge before writing this. This is a new ongoing manga, new to English translations. It is ongoing in Japan too. If you like stories like Kuragehime or xHolic you might like this. I give it a 10 just because it made me love it. It has top rate humor, sometimes it makes you laugh your butt off and sometimes chuckle or smile. It has character development, lots of great ones, and there are no characters in this to hate. All of them become interesting individuals with stories of their own. This story just has great feels to it also. Please enjoy!
