Strobe Edge, gosh. I seriously love this manga. Its my favorite type of non shoujo ish standard manga. I really love shoujo mangas, and I was asking around if somebody knew a good shoujo manga, and someone recommended it. I'm extremely grateful they did. The story line is what got to me. So the main girl Ninako, doesn't really know what love is, then she meets Ren, she falls in love yada yada yada, same old thing with every freaking shoujo manga, but halt. The author throws in a twist! Ren has a girlfriend already! *zomg* That seriously took me by surprise, since I thought she was going to be all happy lovely dovey like every other shoujo manga. Then there is the other love interest, Andou. Andou is the sweetest character ever, he is a major playboy but he cares deeply about Ninako, he even changes his playboy ways for him.

As for the art, is nothing spectacular for me, I think that the artist did a good job at the guys, I honestly don't care for side characters that are guys, but she made me honestly like all of them with her drawings. Her drawings on girls showed the true feeling of how girls act. That is what stands out for me, although the drawing style isn't that spectacular.

This honestly, is more realistic in the sense of the meaning behind it. (not bashing on Maid-Sama or anything because I actually like it
