What is this manga about?
In a few words "Taiyou no le" goes on the family values in the first place, particularly concerning different types and components of love (almost love-ABC: ~ affair, altruism, attraction, calf ~, ~ for children, ~ confession, conjugal ~,cupboard ~, domestication, empathy, fatherly ~, filial ~, first ~, ~ for friends, haunted ~, honesty, inspiring ~, marital ~, ~ message, misunderstanding, motherly ~, mutual ~, one-way ~, secretly ~, sisterly ~, sympathy, trust, undemonstrative ~, etc, including even devotion of dog to her family members).
Someone can find here something very important that can help to overcome teenage trust issues and some common domestic problems. Among similar mangas this one is less complicated and three-hankie, mainly due to absurd jokes and embarrassing situations, But this is enough indeed!

Story - 8
Is quite plain, and that's the clue to it's cuteness. In the reality XXI century is full of divorced people and abandoned children, some of them willfully escape to other families, spending time with friends and their parents, who may partly substitute the real ones. More than that I myself know more broken families, than traditional and full ones. Some of my friends were just like Mao till they've grown up and separated from their parents completely. The story line is mostly perfect for the "slice of life" genre, except for romantic line.
Some may find extra love-triangles, which may seem unnecessary. For me though it's understandable. What I dislike is reasoning. I know that love is a complicated thing and you can't love person for something, that could be listed. There should have been though some must-have small moments, some jokes that only two understand, something special and intimate, that real partners should share. I couldn't find anything like this in any pairing.

Art - 6
For me it was not the strongest point of this manga. Though the style is good enough to simplify reading and understanding, it's still schematic and plain. Nothing special, as for me. Facial expressions and body poses are not thoroughly drawn.

Character - 7
The most of the characterization is rather thin even considering included side-stories. The only well-produced are Motomiyas: Mio and - surprisingly - her father Kaitou. Even the other main character, Hiro Nakamura, is obscure. His reactions to some occurrences seem strange to me. And still it was quite simple to put myself at the place of Mao, so mangaka really have achieved the main aim, I think.

Enjoyment - 8
I had fun reading this manga and also reconsidered something in my own life. Some little imperfections didn't spoil the pleasure.

Overall - 7
Comparing to other works on the subject "Taiyou no le" can't be considered a masterpiece. It is also not a haunting work, but valuable, so I hope that this review will help myself some years later to remember, what this work is.
