Um, this volume has a pretty negative seeming professional review, and I'd like to respond to that. If anyone's looking for the one-and-only true, earth-shaking, world-changing manga, well, Gacha Gacha isn't for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for a light hearted romp through the lives of two kids that are both learning what love and romance is about, I think Gacha Gacha might be for you.

Yet it's humor and (I don't what else to call it but) it's heart-warming-ness have made me not regret buying it. Now all I've got to do is overcome my impatience till they publish the next volume...
