I agree, the mismatched pairing in MH is definitely one of the highlights in this volume and in the shoujo crowd. Wink

The review was good enough to warrant a blind purchase from me, hopefully I won't be disappointed.

I kind of liked the preview in SB, but I'm not a fan of One Piece, and putting Luffy in a Shojo manga seems kind of weird. I might consider it down the line, though, along with S*A.

I was planning to make a thread for this.

I pretty much agree with the review although for me I'd rated it "A" for its content.

The main characters are a great change, Machuru is not your typical popular guy that every girl in school adored. I find Haruna great for falling in love with [a baby monkey (well in her opinion)] an ordinary guy. So far the story was refreshing, hopefully you guys can enjoy it as same as me.

I love the part where spoiler[Machuru kissed Haruna (in front of her ex) and she said after she'd runaway that it's her first kiss with him and that she doesn't want to do it on public (or something a long the line). ]

Can't wait for the next volume, I think there are 3 volumes, hopefully it'll be all great! The art is nice reminds me of Hatori's or Fujiwara's Wild Ones.
