. . .The manga and the anime almost have little or no relation to each other.
I never expected Yukari to be the first person narrator. . .
I love the anime but only just got round to reading this- it is a lot different but it has most of the same events, and many of the same scenes as the anime.
I really enjoyed it- we see some things that were not in the anime such as the battle with the Italian team. Its also very interesting to have Yukari as the narator- we get to hear her thoughts- and in the manga she is even more supportive and 'there for' miho- and seems to really care for her more obviously- wanting to be her strength etc.
Makes me understand why those doujins pairing miho and yukari were made.
BTW- on the scanlators web page the next 2 chapters are up- 13 & 14 - if someone wants to put them on the reader?
