Story 7/10
After reading the first chapters, I had so much hope for this manga. The premises of the story were different, appealing and exciting. At first, I loved the dynamic between the main characters and the way the story was going. Surprisingly enough, not too much cliche, apart from main female character being a crybaby. However, midway the manga, the story just started becoming dull, nothing really important or major happening. I felt many arcs were unnecessary and didn't really add to the overall story. At some point, I felt arcs were being recycled for the sake of keeping the manga going. Had the manga been shorter, cutting off all the arc that felt like fillers, the story would have been more impactful. By the end of it, I just wanted to get it over with (because I very rarely drop anything I am reading not matter how bad it is). So summarizing, I thought it was going to be a lot better than it was (mind you I read it without really knowing what it was about). This manga really had a lot of potential.

I did like that although the story was a bit predictable, things didn't necessarily happen the way you would expect. For ex., I really thought Yoh would be the one confessing first as Haruna would be too scared to tell him she had fallen in love with him after he warned her not to do so. Also, I thought it was going to take them way longer than it did to get together. They got into that relationship fairly easy. I also liked how relatable Haruna's feelings were at times. For ex., I could completely understand her sadness and insecurity at thinking what Yoh had done or not with his ex...not that it makes sense that people feel bad about their partner's past, but it happens and it's a valid emotion. Also, bravo!! NO love triangles. Along this line, Yoh's ex was well played for the advancement of Yoh and Haruna's relationship.

Art 8/10
Not bad, not the best I have seen. I did like that attention was paid into drawing the characters and nothing seemed like out of place. I also liked that the physical appearance of the characters really matched well with their personalities.

Character 8/10
I really liked the dynamic between Yoh and Haruna. They were both really odd people in their own ways, but a perfect match for each other. I found it hilarious when Yoh told Haruna he felt he had found himself a boyfriend and how patient he was with allowing her to be who she was without not judgement.
Haruna: I really liked her determination and how she was such a good-hearted person and pure soul, that she didn't even notice when people were trying to be mean with her. Haruna was who she was, not afraid to show it. Now on the things I didn't like, why did she get SO incredibly awkward after her first kiss with Yoh? she made me literally cringe while seeing her reaction...I get we all get nervous after our first time doing stuff, but gheez!! I feel that was exaggerated a bit too much. And I also feel her "male role" (being overprotective and super strong) were also exaggerated. It was funny for a few times, but then it started to get old. Also, why did she have to physically fight girls to demonstrate her love for Yoh? that was a bit out of place for me.
Yoh: nothing particularly stands out from Yoh, but he is a likable character. Although he was the one doing the coaching for Haruna's growth, I feel Yoh is the one who actually grew a lot from their relationship. I enjoyed watching his transformation and very much liked that it wasn't too radical, like he was a very cruel and mean guy that changed into a sweetheart because he felt in love (that is not believable and very cliche!)...It seems Yoh was always a great guy who never allowed people to get too close in order to discover that until Haruna came around.
In regards to the other characters, Mami and Fumi were very nice people. But I Hated Asami, with capital H!...I honestly could not understand or tolerate her behavior at all...suddenly becoming interested in Fumi once she found out Haruna liked him? making Fumi suffer for no reason? hating on Haruna all the time despite all the times Asami took advantage of Haruna and Haruna being so nice to her? it's not just childish...is very selfish and conceited and spoiled and made me want to slap her across the face!...and don't even get me started on that creepy ass sister complex!! I also found Asaoka really creepy too...with his type of personality, you could never trust that what he was saying was real or not. I would definitely not be friends with someone who comes as far as almost kissing my partner "to get a point across". I think he specially meant every word he said when he was making a move on Haruna and not doing it for Yoh's sake.

Enjoyment 7/10
So, for the first 20 or 30 something chapters, I was really enjoying the story. However, it all went downhill until the end, which was a fairly good ending for the story.

Overall 7/10
It is an enjoyable manga, just that the initial chapters made me expect more from the story than what it turned out to be.
