Foremostly, I have a penchant for such stories; to some, a series where every girl is crushing on each other, supressing feelings and having outbursts might be as tiresome as it is ridiculous. But I find melodrama to be quite enjoyable—which is the reason I sought this piece out in the first place. This isn't to disparage the quality of this manga in particular: Of its like it stands quite tall, with very crisp art and a mostly well woven web of conflicting interests, with a very clever setting that allows for much control of interaction without departing from realism.
Of course, even though I think its quite good, it's not without its shortcomings. It's crudely formulaic: part of this is a flaw generated by my prior praise—its setting—as character often have touble distancing from one another. The story jumps between the conflicts between two characters very acutely and in a way that "shelves" the other characters quite extremely. While there is logic to this, giving different characters and dynamics the sole light, it is also jarring to have the focus so jerked and what was so oppressive in the story now so peripheral. It's hard to gague how big of an issue this is, or if it's truly an issue at all. It's quite common in story telling to jump to different angles, but with everyone in such proximity it's difficult to not to feel at odds. We're not even touching the formulas in the arcs themselves of misunderstandings, conflicts, truth and then growth repeat. But if they didn't follow this it would make how the stories are so segregated become quite intolerable as issues won't resolve until the spotlight swings back around.
There's also much to say on the character's flaws. All of them seem some level of mental but if they weren't this would be a very boring story. Their retarded actions and its consequences is what I'm here to read. Somtims its surprising how little these charcts undstand thmslves but its enjyable to read these realisations occur.
