Phew! Well time for a new review. Spent last three days reading the entire Ichigo 100% manga series. (reason I havent been on here much etc).

I wanted to read a completed series for once and I thought this was an ok series to do.

I would give it a 6/10. The story is fairly interesting, classic boy - girl (many) relationship and the trials he has to face along the way. Its all in a realistic setting so its fairly down to earth.

Reason I only give it a 6/10 though is that it really drags on through most of the series with very similar situations happening over and over again and after a while it gets kinda boring.

A good point of this manga is that it really dives deep into the characters and how they grow up. The series focuses on their dreams and aspirations and how they are all connected.

So if you want a romance/touching story and you have a good amount of free time to make it through all 19 volumes. I would suggest this manga to you.

Also has many Ecchi seens in it as well

Absolute Boyfriend

Series I picked up from my ex over a year ago and just now finished it. Another love story. All in all fairly good series I would give it a 7/10.

Story is about a girl who has no boyfriend but when she meets a mysterious salesman who sells her a boyfriend (literally) who is a machine that loves her the instant she boots him up.

Story goes about how her life is after that and the trouble that follows with not only her boyfriend and the mysterious company that sold her the boyfriend, but trying to keep his identity a secret from everyone around her as well as her next door neighbor who just happens to love her as well.

All in all it has a decent amount of comedy with a fair amount of love. The story is interesting enough to keep interest but it lacks a good amount of detail and many things are left unsaid about some characters by the end of the series.
