Thia book was great and touching. Even though this is volume 2 and I haven't read volume 1, I understood everything. First I thought Hikage was a smart student. Boy was I wrong ^^;. I think Hikage should of picked Teru to go out with because he supported Hikage and changed her life. She didn't have to worry about anything when he was there. But Teru was the Black Rabbit. An online avatar that Teru used to talk to Hikage(Sunflower) on her blog. Hikage first thought it was Hinata, a kind boy that...more
This series was a school-girl romance, and a cheesy one at that. But owning a blog that has few followers, being invisible, and dealing with feelings for two boys at once is something I could easily relate to. The analogy of the Sunflower was fitting and beautifully portrayed throughout the piece, and the art style matched perfectly. There is a moment with our heroine sleeping at her desk where the art showed so much delicacy and emotion.

I really love the whole I am Here manga series!!! I love how sweet and innocent Hikage is, and how even when people are mean to her she meets it with compassion. I love both the male characters, (although personally I am Team Teru!*girlish squeal!*)and how they both love and respect Hikage. My favorite part about volume 2 was when Hikage is snoozing on her desk and Teru is watching her, which was super sweet. Plus through all this you really feel bad for him. But anyway, this was a really touchi...more
I really loved volume one, and I'm very happy that I can say that I liked volume two every bit as much. There's a love triangle here, which normally makes me cringe. But it was handled very nicely here. Both boys really liked and respected Hikage, and they remain friendly towards each other until they think that the other has been pressuring Hikage into choosing him. No friends are lost over this. It's a very sweet romance over all. I also liked the bonus story, featuring Mega Pig from Hikage's...more
Well I finished it.
Well not finished, but more like "skimmed through to see what was happening, finding it absolutely boring, and just flipping the pages to find the sidebars with the fucking ADORABLE Sunflower-Lion called Mahi Mahi that the author loves to draw".
Seriously, that thing is FUGGING CUTE!

And YES I know a Mahi Mahi is the name of a fish -__-
The art was almost TOO good, and it felt a little..over-achieverish compared to the storyline. I mean, I guess I'm personally just having a bad d...more

So this series is basically kimi ni todoke meets densha otoko. And yes, I've been excited about writing that description since the minute I thought of it. :D It's sweet and Hikage's growth is well done for the confines of a two volume series. I'd check out kimi ni todoke for a more sustained look at the same concept but I definitely liked this too.

One of the most interesting things about this volume is that it was released by Kodansha Comics rather than the person who initially released it here in the US, Del Rey. I was pleased (and a little disappointed, I'll admit) to see that Kodansha stayed with Del Rey's cover designs for this volume. It's identical to what you'd expect from Del Rey, with the exception of the Kodansha logo on the spine. It makes me wonder how much of the work in this volume was actually done by Kodansha & how muc...more
