I love this gender-bender, funny, romantic, a little paranormal manga.

Ito Miura is a tomboyish girl whose looks and attitude makes her easily mistaken for a boy. As a member of the drama club she always play male roles. Soon she meets the new transfer student Makoto who is a beautiful girl, who is really a guy in disguise. Makoto has made a deal with his father, to be able to follow his dream of becoming an actor, he must attend high school as a girl and nobody must know. So when Ito finds out the secret by accident she swears she won't tell. This starts their weird friendship that soon turns into a strong bond...love...

Throughout the story there were a lot of love stories that come into play as examples which the witness and strength their love.

I torn between liking the main character and disliking him because he seems very possessive.

[cheyenne · Rating 3 out of 5]

the plot of this book is that Makoto and Jto are like best friends now but underneath that is something more. there freindship is on the rocks becuase a new student wants Makoto his. they both still want to be actors and have big surpise's.(they are gender-benders)

i can connect to this book becuse when me and my friends are really close. we dont want any one to come between us just like Makoto and Jto's friendship. and if it does all you can do is try to make it better for you becuse you can possable get back to normal.

i rated this book 3 out of 5 stars becuase it was good and i could relate to it with my own life. also it was at points a bit boring but i got over it. i can recommed this book to people who read the other parts of this series like book 1,2.also to people who like comic books.

Façon "Lovely Complexe"avec une héroïne un peu hors norme physiquement pour une japonaise parce que chez nous elle passerait inaperçue. Même si je lis des mangas depuis toute jeune et suis familiarisée avec la culture japonaise, hors yaoi et son pendant féminin, ça me gonfle toujours ces histoires avec les filles ou mecs tordus qui vénèrent leurs camarades de classe du même sexe, au point de friser l'homosexualité. Non pas que j'ai quelque chose contre (serais je fan de Clamp autrement?) mais ça fait bien trop jeunesse paumée comme c'est présenté. Ils sont flippants!

I thought this volume was a little better. I'm getting more invested in the characters now.
