Chica Umino

Another Honey and Clover finished. I watched the movie from 2006 right before I read this one. I had good timing, the movie pretty much stops at the end of Volume 7. (It's not that good, if you're interested.) I liked this storyline but I get a little frustrated with the love triangles. How can you love a guy for six years that will never love you back? Oh, Yamada-san, please. Anyway, it's interesting seeing everyone changing but I'm getting impatient for everyone to end up in a REAL relationship!… (mais)

This manga is about art students in college in Japan. It's mainly the story of the guys (at least for now) and their life in their tiny apartment with starvation wages.

This wasn't bad. At first I wasn't sure if I could get into this but I started getting more interested in the characters as the story progressed. It was weird seeing Haguchan portrayed as a little girl. She's 18, she's in college, but she is very, very small and seems immature. Some of the boys are crazy about her.

I may read more of this series.… (mais)

I liked volume 2 better than volume 1. There is a more in depth look at the characters in this manga and what they are going through. They become much more real. (These are mainly college students in art school.) Some love triangles going on and a lot of sadness.

I'm still disturbed by the drawing of Hagu. She's 19 and is drawn to look and act like she's 9. She apparently does look like she's 9. Is she seriously immature? Is something wrong with her? Mentally, physically? Why are these guys crazy about her?… (mais)
