Side notes: This is one shoujo that I'm liking for a long time... well at least the start of it. I've not read it as a whole so I'm not sure how it end but I hope it keeps it's nice feeling and freshness to the end... and manages avoid the most awkward stereotypes that one can have in shoujo in general. The second thing to mention is that the manga is episodic/ constructed on one-shots that aren't related with each other. So you can't expect something like long story arc with the one couple in focus.
