We Were There

This manga was like a singer who doesn't exactly have an amazing voice, but draws people in with his/her heart and soul. I was really infatuated with Bokura ga Ita's story. It's hard to describe exactly why. This manga is normally the kind of manga I wouldn't go for. I intially watched the first two episodes of the anime before reading the manga and noticed how the anime's art style appears so manga-like - it was more of "moving illustrations" than an "animated anime" if you know what I mean. I became curious of what the manga would be like, so I dropped it for a while and searched for the manga. I read it all in one go. Took me about five hours to read all seventy chapters. There was just something about the manga that kept me holding on until the end. I feel really neutral for the most part, throughout the whole manga although there were a few WTF moments. Bokura ga Ita was truly a unique story and I have never read a manga like that before. I feel like I took away a few life lessons from it as well. I'll have to post a more detailed review later, I literally pulled an all nighter just to read this manga. ^^"

First-ever manga that made me cry that hard, the story was really great, and usually, I think that shoujo's show impossible standards for love but this was actually a very real story. That's what made it so amazing, complex characters that made complex choices. Overall one of the best mangas I've read personally.

We Were There, Bokura Ga Ita, was one of the first manga where i actually cried. I haven't read it recently so I don't really know whats happening but i can say this much. If you love romance and like reading mangas that are heart touching you'll like this manga.
