Joyful's Favorite

Personally, I understand why this manga has such a high rating, and it deserves it. This was one of the most realistic shoujo I've ever read. Meguro's character development was so great it's like I saw a totally different person at the end. If you really read this manga properly, you can see why Meguro only experienced true love with Kanata. When I read the first arc, I never shipped Kunimatsu with Meguro, their relationship looked like it just wouldn't work out.

People need to stop hating on Kanata. Unlike countless other shoujos, Kanata was a good hearted guy from the start. Most people in real life who had his kind of home life and past would grow up to be much worse, yet Kanata was still a good guy. Sure, he was a playboy and stuff, but that was only a mask, it was never his true self. Meguro never needed to lose herself to "change" him, they both changed each other and found true happiness. Kanata helped her to overcome her insecurities and become stronger, and she helped him to break out of his cold shell and do the same. That's how a healthy relationship works. It was a roller coaster of emotions and I definitely cried and laughed a lot.
