narutolvr's manga / #rich x poor(13)

The summary really didn't do this manga justice -it turned out to be so much better than I expected! Despite the less than stellar scan quality and somewhat incomprehensible translations, I would reread it. The plot really took a good right turn somewhere! Plus, the surprise actually surprised me and I loved the impromptu economics lesson.

Hwang Mi-ri has a gift for dragging out a mediocre story for volumes without you feeling bored at all. The whole time, no matter how ridiculous the story got (how unfortunate can one girl be?) I just wanted to know what would happen next. By time I realized it, I'd already read 15 volumes lol. It's how she got me with hot blooded woman. I'm addicted

Hmm...this one was alright. The story was interesting but got a bit convoluted about half way through. When they kept switching the couples around, and people were leaving and coming back as they wanted, I could barely grasp the story anymore. At a certain point, I just started skimming the chapters until things started to make sense again.

Somehow I really liked this series. I genuinely can't tell you why (the kids? the fact that she was really good at shogi? the double crossing?) but I did. And I liked the characters as well as the way the plot flowed. I'm not a big fan of this author's other works either, so this really made an impact on me :)

What can I say- I'm a sucker for historical mangas ^^. I really do prefer Japanese history, though, and the art was a bit...freakish

I really liked this one! Though the art wasn't my favorite thing at first (probably just scan quality), I genuinely started to enjoy the characters and story by the second volume.

The pacing was too fast so I couldn't really get into it emotionally, but I found it pretty amusing! The snake/hamster references were overdone, though.

This was really touching somehow! The art wasn't the greatest but somehow the character designs just made them more endearing. And the grandfather was so adorable, holding on to his love for so long! I wish I could have gotten to see more of his past and his reunion with Misaki's grandpa in heaven!

Whoops! Forgot to add this to my read list! It was cool I guess.
