seriously. this is another heart breaking romance manga from io-sensei.
ive been a fan of her manga Strobe Edge. and i loved it very much, so i decided to find for more of her works. and this is how i found BLUE.

STORY:
at the first part, i thought that it would be cliche type of romance. but somehow, its not possible for io-sensei to write a cliche type of romance where the girl meets boy, the girl confessing her one sided love then fall inlove with each other.
i got stucked up with this story too because its too heart wrenching. io-sensei always wins in getting the soft side of a girl like me.
imagine, you've been liking your cousin for a very long time and even tried your best just to be with the same school as him, but then your going to be a witness in his own progress in love. and the worst part is that he is in love with your bestfriend. She is going to be stucked up between the two of them. While im reading the first chapter, i feel sorry for the female lead. she doesn't expect that things would turn out this way and she need to witness all of this heart wrenching events while watching behind their backs.

ART:
im really inlove with the art of io-sensei.:)
cute and fluffy drawings and hot bishies like Ren in stobe edge!:)

CHARACTER:
the female is sure strong. she have the courage to look and still observe even though she knew that her love will never be given to her. the male lead is good too. he doesnt make anything that will annoy you, but its just that i hate him for being too insensitive. but i love his part of being protective.
the bestfriend of the female lead is not annoying too. even if she is her main rival you cant even recognize her as a rival in love. she is so kind and caring.

ENJOYMENT:
i really enjoyed this series. every part makes you want to read more and more. and of course it will always make you fell hanged in every end of the chapter. io-sensei really makes you think what will gonna happen next. and you cant even predict the turns of event!

OVERALL
i really recommend this manga. because it only doesnt show the good side of love. it really shows in how people try to struggle and overcame all the difficulties and anxieties they feel because of love. it shows that love isnt just about happiness. it also have its own sadness. :)
