*spoiler free*

This manga is a train-wreck. After recently enjoying wonderful manga such as Hapi Mari?! with the trope of arranged relationships, I thought it would be nice to explore other similar manga. However, I found myself quite disappointed by this. Honestly, I wasn't sure what I was expecting. Most shojo isn't exactly remarkable work; more of a guilty pleasure in any case.

To begin with, the story was a little bad. Understatement, actually: very bad. I didn't find it to be unique at all, so I can honestly barely remember what happened even though I just read it. The plot just kinda drags on and there really isn't a very clear point.

The art is more terrible on the covers than it is inside, but the actual manga is pretty bad too. Nobody is even faintly attractive, everything is disproportionate, and it looks like a child's cartoon. However, as a fellow artist, I gave a two for effort and perseverance, so I suppose I'm biased.

There is no character, much less character development. They are just tropes and stereotypes and nothing of use actually transpires in terms of characterization.

I enjoyed it enough to finish it, at least, but that's not saying much. I can force myself to finish pretty much anything at this point. This definitely isn't the worst I have read, but it's entering the rankings.

Overall, I didn't like this at all.

I would recommend this if: you need as much of the arranged relationships trope as you can get (my reason for reading this), you like forceful dudes, you like cute little helpless schoolgirl-types, you like male-dominant romance, you want a completely romance centered plot

I would NOT recommend this if: you want a plot, you want character development, you expected good art, you want something you can come back to and reread

If you're into this trope, I would suggest Hapi Mari?! (though there is a little smut in it). If you're not into smut, I would recommend Hadashi de Bara wo Fume, Nobara no Hanayome, or Reimei no Arcana.

Have a good day everyone!
