First I thought it was a manga like Citrus BUT surprise surprise it isn't!
The stories are cute but it escalates too quick for me(but again what was expecting from a story with only 3 volumes).
My fav story was the one with this two childhood friends omg I wanted them to end up dating...such a pity

I heard a lot of people saying this was a great manga, and I have to agree with them.

It all starts when Chika goes to an orientation day at a school she is interested in. There she meets Haruna, who gives her a tour. Several things happen and at the end Chika promises she will get in the school and see Haruna again.

And she gets in! Sadly, Haruna isn't who is was, she is sad and something terrible seems to have happened.

I really liked the characters. Though I found Chika a bit young at times, especially if you compare her to the other characters. Chika acted quite immature at times, cried a lot and just didn't seem to do much with school (she had reasons, but even when those reasons fade, you see she needs help with keeping it up). Which is a shame.
Haruna, well she was really an interesting character. She was gorgeous and I wanted to know what happened to her that made her drop school/clubs and various other things.

All in all, it wasn't really much yuri, a lot of just hints of shoujo-ai.

I loved Chika's friend btw, she was really supportive with Chika, and tried her best to cheer her up when she needed it.

I had one character though, that I absolutely disliked. The class president/representative. She was a total (sorry for my language) bitch and acted out of line various times. There are some hints as to why, but it is all too vague.

Well I hope book 2 will be as nice as this one, and I hope less annoying characters, and of course some sweet romance between Chika and Haruna!

A story about a girl who works really hard to get into a high school because she fell in love with the girl who gave her a tour. With the exception of the lovers being two girls, this is the same as pretty much every other high school romance manga.

I really loved this book, I love how their love for each other was really innocent. It should be rather interesting to see how the rest of the story developes... and hopefully I can get a hold of the second book soon...

The story of two high schoolers reminding me o lot of Yumi and Sachiko-sama from Maria-sama ga Miteru. Cute artwork and sweet yuri story.
