Meh. That pretty much sums up my impression of this shojo manga from Izumi Tsubaki. I originally picked it up because the premise sounded absurd (not always a bad thing) and I was salivating for some new manga series to bury my little eyes in. Basically, the heroine of this series is Chiaki Togu - a devout member of the school's massage club. Yes - I said massage. One day she falls in love with a guy, simply because of his fine back and the way it calls to her for a massage (ha ha). Stay with me...more

I felt insulted by this book in that anyone would actually put any sort of price on it since it's worthless.

Honestly, these character didn't ever qualify as 2 dimensional. The story after the first half of the first chapter has no real direction or plot and everything changes so quickly with no ...more

She finally meets him and asks to give him a massage and he says only if she can make him fall in love with her.

This was a cute story of her meeting up with him and just being herself but she is so cute, and smiles and keeps asking to do give him a massage. You will have ...more

This looks like a great series with a unique plot and interesting characters. The bonus chapter "Teach Me, Prince" was also really cute.

Good book, sweet characters. Unfortunately, I have to say that the drawing of the boy's shoulders are extremely annoying as they are widely out of proportion to the rest of his body and make his head appear the size of a peanut. However, overall this book is good.
