ORANGE YANE NO CHIISANA IE review

Please keep in mind I've only read 10 chapters so far, for lack of more.

Story: 8
It's not like the kick-off is excelling in originality. Two people have to live together because of certain circumstances, we've seen this before. What raises its value, in my opinion, is the fresh look on things. Both persons were married before and have two children. The gender distribution is very clear, which allows for pretty hilarious jokes, and at the same time for singularly heartwarming moments. The story (thus far) follows a pretty likely curve, no surprises there. All this makes it very good, but not great.

Art: 8
While the characters are drawn in a very clean, aesthetically appealing manner, giving the main character depth and likeability, the backgrounds are far from intricate. I like the general feel, but it could be a good deal better. It's really made up by the facial expressions, which convey the characters' emotions very well. Again, very good, not great.

Characters: 9
The character development is the main selling point here. Starting out from seemingly bland and naive people and slowly chiseling out their little traits and worries, social surroundings and how they manage to cope with them. Being bent on build-up in stories, I think great (short of awesome) applies.

Enjoyment: 9
The series manages to deal with a pretty serious topic in a light and playful manner, not overly stressing the disheartening aspects. Its (mostly visual) jokes provide a nice, steady stream of smile-inducing tidbits. With every chapter leaving me waiting for more, I think the manga deserves to be called great in this respect.

Overall: 8.5 (Ratings do not allow for floating-point numbers, so I rounded to the next integer)
For a slice of life manga, this sports a lot of action-rich sequences, but this is necessary to distract from the shortcomings in the plot and art department. Still, it's a very nice-to-read, mostly lighthearted work, and thus highly recommendable.
