Okay, I have no clue where this manga is going.
For one thing, Tanemura decided to give Shizumasa a twin. I really don't get it, but I think it's like this: Shizumasa is kind and caring and an overall nice guy. But for some reason he got sick (still hasn't been explained), so his secret twin fills in for him at school. Except, Shizumasa's "Shadow" is, as I have stated in my review of volume two, a total prick. Barely anybody knows the truth behind Shizumasa's "mood swings," Haine least of all.

Okay, yeah, the situation with Shizumasa is FINALLY starting to make a LITTLE sense, but I feel like it's too little, too late for me. There just doesn't seem to be any real depth to the characters or the situations they are in, at least not so far, and I find myself more frustrated with the story than anything else. So I think I'm done. Especially when I see that there are seven more books in the series. I'll move on to something else, thanks.
[Ch. 15-18:]
First off, I would like to say, "How stupid can you be Haine?"
I do love the fact that she's not a total damsel in distress or like typical shoujo characters, but at the same time, she is.
But poor Haine-chan! The 'fake' Shikumasa is so mean to her!
I love Mailman-san and Touya-san though! :D

Not bad, and I love the art. Arina Tanemura is one of the greatest artist of mangas in my opinion. The story line still confuses me, but I'm starting to understand it and I love all the plot twists.

If I wasn't a fan of the series, I am now.

BECAUSE YEAH I LURVES IT.
5/5
