Ich liebe diese Reihe. Kaum ein anderer Manga kann mit diesem zuckersüßen Zeichstil und der netten Geschichte mithalten.

Review for complete series

I am so sad about this; I really like Yoko Maki and I thought I would love this series as her works have continuously been getting better. Romantica Clock tells the story of twins Akane and Aoi - the former is naive and happy-go-lucky whilst the latter is studious and somewhat stoic. With Maki's beautiful art, this should have been a perfectly lovely story about the dynamics between these polar opposite twins, their family and social life, school struggles and of course romance. And while it had all that, it was just so... boring.

I generally liked the characters but I don't feel as though we ever got to know them properly. I can't relate to why Akane feels so extremely competitive toward her brother Aoi. Most of the other family members felt redundant and friends were introduced left and right without us ever truly getting to know them. The romance was even worse - Akane and her love interest might be very cute but she is much too immature for me to feel invested in them. I don't understand why he likes her and her liking him back feels just like a whim. Aoi's romance on the other hand isn't even cute, it's bland and comes across as entirely one sided.

All in all, it is still a cute manga but it could have been so much more and it should not have taken me as long as it did to finish this (6 weeks for 10 volumes!). It was just so bland and uneventful that the only thing left for me to truly like was the beautiful art. It's also not a genre thing as I can enjoy slice of life stories as well as sweet romances with young characters. There's just something missing in Romantica Clock and it really saddens me given that I like the author.

Beh, la storia comincia a prendermi. In fondo è simpatica e rilassante e i due gemelli sono dei personaggi riusciti. Anche i comprimari, ad essere onesti.

La storia bonus finale, quella sul mago, è tenerissima!

Perché ho aspettato tanto a leggere questa serie?

Locker, leicht & für jeden zu empfehlen, der nicht zu hohe Anforderungen hat und nicht viel über das Gelesene nachdenken will :) (Sonst wäre Romantica Clock nämlich scheiße :D )

It was very cute, and I'm looking forward to reading more. Already there is some character development in main and side characters. The side stories were very cute as well.

The second volume of Romantica Clock was not as good as the first one. One of the reasons for this is that I was more annoyed by the characters this time. Akane behaved very childish and Aoi got on my nerves because there’s literally nothing that he’s not able to do which makes him a bit boring. Besides the twins, there are many side characters and it’s hard to keep track with all of them, and I don’t like all of them.

The side plot of this volume resolves much around cats which I generally liked but the cats were drawn so weirdly. As it’s the norm for a Shojo, romance plays a huge role in the main plot. Sadly, most of the romance is insta love and not so well executed. Other plot points, like Christmas and New Year’s, were Shojo-typical as well and thus not very creative.
