The writing in this column made me laugh. Enjoyable read.

I've only ever watched the anime series, but I loved the hell out of it. One of those shows I checked out simply because of its bizarre premise, but it wound up charming my pants off and is now one of my favorites. Who'da thunk?


I felt the same way. One of my favs. Someday I've got to track down this manga.

I also have only seen the anime, and it's just one of those shows that you know you shouldn't have, just because the premise for it sounds so...wrong. But it's really good. And the dub outtakes are so funny!

Really liked both the manga and anime. I just wish I could recommend the manga to people without having to qualify it with "provided you don't mind half-naked 12-year-olds".

I've wanted to watch the anime ever since I watched JesuOtaku's review of it. It's one of those premises that's so ridiculous, you can't help but want to take a look yourself. Very Happy

Ah, poor Ayase, she tries so hard without realizing it is an impossible task. She spoiler[even bluts out a full confession near the end and talks the whole thing through with the MC] which I think is pretty rare for a Third Wheel to do.

Too bad it's been out of print for so long. While a full scanlation exists, according to timestamps my collection is from around 2004 so that may be pretty hard to find as well.

Midori is one of those few many I can just pick up and start reading. I've read my sets until their spins have weakened to the point they can rip easily.

I managed to snag all of the volumes off of amazon, after reading the article. Had to get a few volumes in french though. Its a great series and I'm glad I got a chance to read it all.
