El último volumen amplia el abanico de historias amorosas; abarcando a las amigas de Yuka. Aquí se dan flashbacks narrativos, para encauzar en el desarrollo el retorno de la protagonista con su primer amor. Igualmente, ella sigue con sus problemas en todos sus idilios (y siempre por la misma causa).
Este es un número muchos más coral, que intenta resultar más lógico y costumbrista, pero en el que continúa habiendo esos chicos (en el presente, su primer novio) que le rompen el corazón con razones injustificadas (aquí le dicen que su otra novia ha dejado de comer, al volver él con Yuka), y muy bochornosas. Para más inri, el manga da un vuelco repentino, y el hermanastro de Yuka le confiesa su amor secreto.
En fin, todo es bastante rocambolesco y atropellado, ilógica la manera en las que actúan ellos y ellas, Yuka especialmente, ya que va ‘enganchada’ de los pantalones de uno a otro, hasta cuando la dejan (y creedme, odio comentarlo así, como mujer de pleno derecho, pero es que no hay otra de explicarlo).
Al final le dejo el dos de puntuación, por ‘coherencia’ general. No es un manga que aporte algo, y más pensando que es infantil. Para nada recomendable.

Read it full. This is a story about Yuka, who, as the name implies, randomly romances the first guy she sees. The characters were not deep nor charismatic but I wasn't expecting anything great in a short series either. On the other hand it was very fast paced so it was entertaining. In the end she decides to end up with HER BROTHER, which is crazy but then I realized this is the same author as Mermelade Boy so... no surprises here.

hace mucho tiempo que la leí... quizás debería releerla pero la historia es buena, diferente a otras de wataru pero como siempre con su historia de amor
