Great art and a killer premise are bogged down by high school melodramatics and stale gags. As a Takarazuka and Rose of Versailles fan I really wanted to like this, but it sold itself short. That's probably because, as a Yuri Hime serialization, it has a very specific audience and format. It would have been nice to see a more Utena-style exploration of fantasy and gender roles, something that took itself a bit more seriously and had a bit more to say.

But what the hey, three stars for the great art and killer premise.

Very quick, light, and entertaining read, but wasn't anything mind-blowing or extraordinary.

Plot is simple as can be but Zaō Taishi's art is as pretty as ever! This is another manga I remember starting in middle school and have suddenly decided to revisit and finish.

Society with only AFAB people is against the idea of lesbians. A bit angsty but fun, some cool sword-fighting and gender tricks.

Well, I am not going to continue this one. I mostly wanted to read this one because of Yuri + Love Stage/Princess Princess artist. Sadly, my headache has intensified because of all the rules (Adams and Eves mainly), plus nothing really happens. I was hoping for some good yuri kisses, or something else romantic, but this whole volume was just yawn!

My girlfriend got mad with me and made an scene because I stayed up until 4 AM reading this manga... You know what?! I don't care ( I would use another words that are crossing my mind but they are kind of unprofessional).

This manga was the best thing that happened to me since I started reading manga this year. It was the best of a lot of worlds.

For a moment I completely forget that I was talking about girls. And then I Think that I was reading a very good Yaoi Manga with little ink of a Yuri, and then I remembered that it was a Yuri manga. It's was awesome!
In a way, they do a representation of all kind of couples. And the main one is more a Yaoi couple than a Yuri one. I loved this manga... Has so many shades inside that I completely enjoyed!! the draw is beautiful! The story is awesome!

I recommend all what I read and receive my review in Goodreads, but this one... IT'S ABSOLUTELY A MUST READ TO EVERYONE!!!

This was an interesting story. No men at all. Hmmm. :) The artwork is pretty good. I enjoyed the story and the cute romance beginning here. There is a lot of nudity here with not much left to your imagination, so I'd only recommend this to those who enjoy and appreciate women's bodies. This won't be a long series I'm sure, but it's entertaining.

Cute drawings, weak plots. WTF ending.
