It was not as disgustingly sweet as the 90% of shoujo mangas, so I count it as a win. The male character is intriguing, he seems like a double-faced young man that has more darkness in him than the female lead had previously anticipated. It would have been interesting if, in the end, the warnings of the others had some truth in them and the male lead was indeed heading to a dark path (possibly yakuza?). A refreshing ending twist - the opinions of others were based on evidence and the female character was the one who was too naive and blind to see the truth.
The story itself has potential, the characters have glimpses of depth in them, the dialogues are a bit awkward and the plot seems to be left at a bit of a cliffhanger.
