Koiso Ryouko! Nice to meet you!!!

I'm desperately trying to laugh silently so I don't wake people up...

this is a very unique and unusual manga. the story plot is not what you will usually find, therefore this is my number 2 (my number 1 is noblesse) favorite manga. yes, it beats naruto, kubera, hunter x hunter, death note and many others, for the reason that it simply is a different genre, sure the art is not the best, but thats even more suprising given that i usually go for good art and ive read as many mangas more than you probably did. i found myself falling in love with kitano, and i am a married person lol. ive read this more than i ever read archie comics and thats saying a lot. the author did touch a very good sensitive part in me, that this world is judgemental, and that you gotta admit it yourself, we go for looks. the fact that this is not a known manga despite its great plot says it it - they say it has a dull art. but read on, and you'll find that everyone even kuruta's annoying face will become tolerateble. whats even suprising is as the story progress, i find kitano to be so handsome, to the point that it has inspired me to write a story about similar plot only to amuse myself because i find that i wanted the life of kitaro to live on amd continue his adventures.

so like i said in my first volume review, if you didnt laugh out loud to this manga, i doubt no one can ever will. you're an evil demon kicked from hell because you have no sense of humour. -.-

On one hand I'm immensely enjoying the characters in this manga, especially Kitano himself. My heart breaks for the boy. On the other hand the misunderstandings are a bit much and I'm glad he finally cleared some of those up at the end of this volume. I'm a little annoyed though at how he can scream 'Kieeeeeeeeeekikikieeee' and he's trying to say real words...

Segundo tomo de la historia de los malentendidos por excelencia. Seiichiro sigue teniendo fama de matón terrible, pero un par de personas ya lo conocen de verdad y empieza a hacer algún que otro amigo. Deseando seguir.

My new idol

Though the art is still a bit ropey, the basic premise is stretched to such a ludicrous length that it becomes laugh out loud funny in places.
As almost all characters except the protagonist are- at this point at least- school bullies, a lot of the jokes involve people getting punched in the face due to misunderstandings, and sometimes this can wear a bit thin especially as it is signposted a mile off.
Would be 3 stars if it weren't for 'Ken the wolf boy' which had me giggling like an idiot

Masih tetap lucu dan lebih bagus dari yg sebelumnya, secara akhirnya muncul juga heroine-nya yg kickass abis! Di sini akhirnya mulai ada orang yg memahami karakter Kitano dan mengetahui kesalahpahaman yg kerap terjadi padanya. :) Oke, lanjut ke next vol. Semoga masih tetap semangat membaca sampe vol 15, soalnya belakangan ini mood baca datang dan pergi.
