Side notes: The art of this manga is something that I call "clean shoujo style." It's detailed and clean with characters having big eyes and small chin. The story plot fits also to the "traditional shoujo manga" basis so it's like underlining of its origin to the readers. Still that doesn't make it bad. The story itself is quite decent and characters okay so it's easy to read and enjoy as it is.
