Born in Perak, Kaoru has been enthusiastic about comics ever since she was old enough to grasp a pencil and draw. No wonder she became the first female cartoonist in Malaysia to ever appear in manga-influenced style. While her works are very neat simple yet exotic it has revolved around on more love-oriented stories although still preserving the sense of intellectuality and substance. With the likes of "Siri Maskeret Cinta" she also has produced a series of action adventure graphic novels aptly titled "Helios Eclipse."

Cinta tu mahal, tak boleh dijualbeli walaupun setrillion ditadahkan ( ye ke? ).
Komik rom-com klise cinta orang kaya dan orang miskin dari pelukis komik shoujo veteran Malaysia, Kaoru. Sedap la baca komik ni sebab jalan cerita dia smooth je, walaupun predictable tapi kau tetap rasa seronok melayan watak2nya yang berbagai kerenah.Giler, duit terlampau banyak, kalau orang tak suka kau, kau boleh bayar je untuk dia sukakan kau. Pathetic. Layan...
p/s: background theme terlalu japan-ish, nak tiru style manga tak kisah, tapi tak perlu la kita angkut budaya2 dia sekali. Bukankah Malaysia kaya dengan pelbagai budaya?

Lama avoid komik jenis macamni sebab selain dari puas baca komik jenis ceni dulukala at the same time aku rasa macam watak hero macam terlalu girly sangat mukanya. Kadang sampai rasa macam takda beza dengan muka heroin. Dua dua cantik bha~ Haha. tapi tadi baca sekali sekala layan best juga.
Mengisahkan tentang Virgnia yang merupakan seorang anak kaya yang terlalu kaya sehinggakan dia fikir semua benda boleh dibeli dengan duit termasuk cinta. Jadi, Julien hanya mampu bertahan selama 3 hari saja. Nak jadikan cerita, berlaku beberapa perkara -- sehinggakan Virginia anggap Julien sudah mempunyai perempuan lain. Dan Miku menjadi mangsa mereka berdua.
Dan si Miku & kakaknya menghadapi situasi genting sebab pelanggan kedai makin berkurangan sebab ada pesaing baru di sekitar kawasan tempat mereka berniaga dan banyak lagi.
To be honest, aku ada la cam blushing blushing sikit baca especially part si Miku yang nampak macam polos tak tahu apa apa tu luahkan perasaan dia. Nampak innocent amat. Haha. So memang terbukti kadangkala kita memang tak dapat nak faham hati kita sendiri unless bila sesuatu yang kita taknak terjadi tu berlaku. Barulah masa tu kita nak cuba faham kehendak hati.
Jadi anak orang kaya kalau banyak duit tapi hati tak tenang buat apa. Baik bersederhana sajalah. Tapi overall cerita yang very simple. Boleh layan kalau nak bacaan ringan haha. Suka dengan perangai karakter dalam ni. Gila-gila ya. 🫢

Cinta Untuk Dijual is one of Kaoru’s standalone romantic graphic novel about Miku, a part-owner of a failing Ramen shop who met with a rich girl, Virginia who is an ex-girlfriend of one of Miku’s friend, Julien. Virginia is a girl who never know any love besides the love of people with money and she always assume everyone loves and respects her because of her money. When Miku’s sister, Miya came out with an idea to dress up Miku as a girl waitress to help with her business, Julien used Miku (dressed in girl’s clothings) as a reason to breakup with Virginia. This infuriates Virginia and she decided to stalk-help Miku and ruined the business by acting like a spoiled rich girl and made Miku as her slave (*there’s a sponge bathing scene*). Embarassed, Miku tried to tell her the truth but Virginia found out the truth eventually and in her short time with Miku, she somehow developed a strong feeling for him. The novel followed Miku’s struggle to save his parent’s restaurant and Virginia’s journey in finding out the meaning of love.
As a short Japanese-inspired Shoujo manga, Kaoru had managed to weave a decent romance from one of the overused cliched rich boy/girl vs poor boy/girl storyline. The novel doesn’t fall fall short from being unpredictable and unoriginal. The plot does look like it being borrowed from some Shoujo manga. The character Virginia is quite similar to Maid Maiden’s protagonist and Miku does look like he came from Princess Princess.
The artwork is quite basic. Kaoru’s style might change but her overall character’s really doesn’t. The pseudo-manga=comic compacted scenes within the pages so, there’s lesser sense of filler ‘artistic’ page in this book. There are also some Shoujo-theme related to lolita and crossdressing which can be problematic to some local readers.
The story is sweet and such. But it lack depth and although it have some moments, Miku is very one-dimensional and Virginia’s story isn’t well resolved despite the ending. Its an okay standalone but as for a shoujo manga, it does poorly with originality.

Finally, a decent love story from Kaoru! Wow, just wow! Plot penceritaannya simple je, tapi ianya ada bagi vibe yang lain daripada karya Kaoru yang lain. Walaupun plotnya agak cliché dan ada adegan yang membuatkan aku geli geleman, tapi semuanya ok. Aku rasa Kaoru lebih sesuai buat komik cinta yang berepisod daripada komik cinta yang pendek. Secara keseluruhan aku puas hati!

Kisah mengenai cinta yang romantis dan juga kelakar.. Persahabatan antara Julien, Miku dan Pitao memang baik.. Victoria pula anak orang kaya yang kesepian.. Bagaimanakah mereka menyesuaikan diri..
