This manga is really great. The characters are all really cute. The romance and comedy is great, and it has some good serious bits too. ( )

I meant to stop reading this series last volume, but I forgot I put a hold on the upcoming volume at my library, creating a contractual obligation for me to read it. Having fulfilled that obligation, I stand by my original decision. This series is just too dull to keep reading.

There's just nothing too original here. All the shojo cliches are trotted out: unrequited love, declaration of love, Christmas, kotatsu naps. The side characters are not memorable, barely having one dimension. And the lead characters have been sapped of everything that made them interesting in the first few volumes. (Maybe that's a Samson effect from Miyamura cutting his hair?)

Ho-hum. ( )

I feel they let me down with the side characters love lives. It's real enough but they dropped the ball. I've seen them do so much better on previous volumes. ( )
