Clash

This has to be the least clashing story ever. EVERYTHING was soo overdone and even the cliche parts were utterly lame! Dancing with little children, the doggie dance? Really? The art was bad too. I hate those extremely pointy faced drawings. I guess it was just not my cup of tea.

Very shocking because the girl says "God doesn't care about us" as one of the closing "shoujo bubble" moments.

Looking for the Right Star
Ever since her mother left, this protagonist has had to take care of her little brother. She had become very busy, stressed, and anxious. And her little brother never talks or even smiles.

Very cute :)

It was really weird...they were college kids though so it's not shoujo manga so at least it had a different feel.

Sumire wa Blue

Kinoshita Sumire first saw Makimura Daichi in the library. For some reason, she was very attracted to the way he twirls his pencil, and from then on, she started taking interest in him. Daichi is a member of a famous ice hockey team and is secretly in love with his childhood friend, Shouji. These two people have nothing in common at all, yet they slowly get closer to each other.

Review
I really liked it the way I like Suki Kirai Suki, the other one shot manga of this mangaka. The reason being that her mangas are very slow and realistic. The feelings develop slowly, the characters have very casual and realistic conversations, and the events are not forced. My favorite characters in the story were Sumire and Daichi's respective best friends. Especially Sumire's. They were both very supportive and spunky and funny. I wish there had been a little more focus on them. Shouji was a very selfish girl who was cute and knew it too. Daichi was indecisive and slow and a bit annoying as well. Sumire's feelings were pure but almost stalkerish which was funny and squeal worthy. I just wish that it didn't seem like Daichi choose her as a number two. It was mostly a story of the stubborn Daichi getting over his childhood crush. He got Shouji out of his system and moved on. I still liked the focus on Sumire and her developing feelings. It was an enjoyable story and I had a good time staying up to 6 am reading it. And I just didn't get the point of the side story (Green Apple, Red Apple) which focuses on Daichi and Shouji about 3 years before. It just featured both Daichi's and Shouji's deceitfulness and selfishness again.
