Don't waste your time.

How this has four stars on here I have no idea. I got halfway through and wondered if it was so bad because it was an adapted otome game, but it's not. The characters have some substances and it feels like there could be a story. However there is no real time between arcs so the story ends up feeling rushed; and any pay off you may have been waiting for happens so fast it's not rewarding. Your left sitting there with no fear of what will happen to the MC, despite her life being threatened a number of times (not even a spoiler, there is zero reason to think her life is in danger ever). The ending was not satisfactory at all, felt like a cop out and again they cheaped out on the one thing the reader wanted pay off for. The last chapter, half chapter, is a poor epilogue that starts okay but ends with a sort of weak cliff hanger hint of a possible spin off. Overall the story feels like a manga adapted otome game verison of what a high schooler thinks a shoujo manga should be. The art is fine though and it's not an unbearable read; it feels like it something a middle or high schooler may squeal over (if they've never read or watched anything good).

I love love this manga I have read it twice the only thing I wish is that it would be completed otherwise it would be a great manga. I literally love how the main character is not a typical shoujo type and how all the characters are unique. Definantly recommend you read this, but as I always say it's my opinion so you might not be into this kind of manga but I do love this one a lot.
