Mars no Kiss review

Holy heck this was the best yuri manga I've ever read. I'm a pretty selfish person when it comes to crying, but holy shit was I bawling by the end like a baby. First manga that made me cry, maybe I'm just a huge yuri fanatic.

Story: 10
I don't come across well-written manga containing yuri. A lot of it is geared towards men with a heck ton of fanservice geared towards a straight man's mind. I'm a poor woman who just wants to see some girls kissing and happy, and this totally appealed to it.

The pace was just enough that I'm screaming "Oh of course that's gonna' happen!" or I'm sweating from worry. Just enough! A lot of manga usually drags me along with unnecessary crap just to make it long enough. Or too fast where I have to reread it a couple times because I'm super sure I don't know what I just read.

Even though I didn't get my preferred ending, I was HELLA satisfied. It didn't make me happy with the happy ending right after the credits. The ending broke my damnned yuri heart and I liked it. (not a masochist)

Art: 10
Now first thing I've gotta' say is I'm a feminist til' I die. I'm sick of every single woman I see in media with huge boobs and a tiny waist to be worth looking at and not made fun of. The body types were pretty realistic. The girl who you might call a "slut" and "easy" didn't have boobs that could suffocate someone. It was nice!

Even though I don't like judging a whole anime or manga series by art, hot damn am I wooed by it. Any anime could take me with fluid animation, and any manga could take me with art that is just plain out good.

I also enjoy Yukari's design, she looks like a Gyaru girl to some degree.

Character: 9
While the writer had them portray stereotypes, it wasn't cringe-worthy. Which is definitely /not/ easy.

Enjoyment: 10
Sometimes I have to really push myself to get through a manga, but this kicked my butt. I was hurriedly clicking to get through it, on the edge of my seat.

Overall: 10!
I'm not even sure how I could give this heavenly manga less then a 10. I'd be very delighted for a sequel, or simply similar work from the makers.
