Summary

My Thoughts
Review covers 3 chapters
Hello
everyone and welcome back to Katie’s Corner! Today is a manga review day and I
have something absolutely fascinating for you. This manga is only 3 chapters
long, but that chapters are long and you het to feel all the characters
thoroughly. Another awesome fact about this manga? Well, if you already noticed
it’s a collaboration from two amazing mangakas. The story is by kazuna Kawahara
and the art is by Aiji Yamakawa. You should know Kawahara se-sensei as the
person who brought us “high school debut” and Yamakawa Aiji is famous for
“Stand Up!” and “Balancing Toy”, those are my favourite from her works.
Okay,
let me get back to the story itself. As the title says we’ll be reading as
story of friendship. I can’t stop gushing in my mind about this title, its
plainly awesome. Okay, back on track. The story is about two best friends Eiko
and More. Eiko is absolutely plain looking, but she has an awesome character
and well because of her good nature she is always thought as a good two shoes.
On the other hand we have her best friend – Moe, a real beauty, but with a not
so good character. How can such two people be friends? That’s for you to find
out!
Why
I loved this story so much? How do I explain it, the friendship between Eiko
and More were described amazingly. I kind of envied those two. I do have a best
friend but we love in different courtiers so can’t really see each other a lot.
The thing with More, I got her at some points but then I didn’t, she is an amazing
character, but the words to her possible boyfriend made me think: “is she sane?”
but after something, I actually agreed with her. What is that she was telling
the? Find out for yourself. She always sticks to her and you will see many examples
of it throughout the story.
All
the fun starts when Narugami appears and first starts telling Eiko but then
after he falls in love with Eiko, he starts pursuing his love why was h. why
was he bullying Eiko in the first place? Well, his best friend dates Moe, and
then she dumped him because of Eiko, so Narugami though to bully Eiko so he
could get at their friendship. It’s a lot of fun to read when he suddenly starts
going after Eiko in a romantic way.
Surely
Moe plays a big role in their relationship and their bickerings are just
amazing to read about. When Narugami finally does confess to Eiko, that page
jut cracks you up. Especially this moment:
Yes,
yes, they absolutely ignored the guy who has just confessed.
Well,
long story short, I believe everyone will enjoy this story. You will receive a
lot of positive energy from it and will definitely have fun. Enjoy it to its
fullest and don’t forget to share your thoughts below. Stay tuned for more
reviews and promos. Happy reading!
XOXO
