This is my first attempt to write a review and I chose this to be my first to write on about. I'm picky when it comes to reading. I read all kinds of manga as long as the story piques my interests.
First of all, what I like about it is that this is not your typical shoujo characters. If you think about it, the protagonist - Kanoko - is so amazing that in the long run, you won't care anymore about what may happen on her lovestory. Yes, she's not popular, and not even beautiful (she's so cute though). What you'd like about her is her personality. She's funny and full of sarcasm, and I think you can relate to her musings especially if you're introvert just like her. But the most beautiful about her is SHE IS NOT WEAK that you'd be surprise about her reasonings and choices.
The other protagonist - Tsubaki - well, I'd think he's OP because he's the most popular, handsome, intelligent that you'd love him and dream, "I want to have a boyfriend like him", but you'd know why he's not because you'd see his flaws but still understand him. Tsubaki is a genuine character, that's his best characteristic. He's honest and sarcastic that when he's paired with Kanoko, you'd enjoy all of their bantings and spazz all the way.
The flow of the story was soooo great that you'd want to read it all night or what. Although, I'm a bit dissappointed with the ending. I wanted more of Kanoko's interesting musings and plans but it ended shortly. It's may have ended nice with their lovestory but I guess, I expected too much from Kanoko (yes, I love her). Anyway, they ended it nicely, you'd still smile for them.
The art is decent enough that you'd see their expressions and emotions, the character development was the best and the lovestory was romantic. All in all, I enjoyed this story so much that I wanted a sequel. I rated this 9 out of 10.
Ps. You may have heard that this story is a sequel of Warau Kanoko-sama but I assure you that it's independent enough that you don't have to worry about reading both stories. Though I suggest you must.
