Customer Reviews

I am loving this series!

As Maria's feelings for Shin start bubbling closer to the surface, Maria gets reunited with a former friend from her old school whose intentions for coming back into Maria's life are sketchy at best. Chaos inducing and heart breaking at worse. I'm not one to pay close attention to tropes or genres, I like what I like, but high school love triangles are a bit done in my opinion. They're not necessarily a bad thing, they're so popular cause they do work and they are entertaining, however it is better when the triangle shifts into different shapes such as a square, or cube if you will. I hope in this case it's more like a circle within the middle of an S, so the main couple stays together. Poor Yusuke, the boy is a total simp/manic-pixie-dream-boy, I wish he would gain more self-worth to see himself more than a helper. And I wish Tomoyo and Ayu got more page time, I think it would be fun peeking into their lives a bit more. I can't wait to read on!
