Watashi no Koibito - SAKISAKA Io
One day, Emi receives a call with a confession to her popular and beautiful older sister. Without thinking, she hangs up. But on the day that she enters high school, by some unknown coincidence she meets this caller who had confessed over the phone...
And thus, an overflowing love begins...
And thus, an overflowing love begins...
The story starts of very nicely, it's of Emi receiving a confession through the phone of a guy who happens to be in her class the next day when she enters.. Which was to me surprising to have! I thought that was marvellous! When the register was called, she realised the boy was the one who called up and confessed and she could see he was embarrassed his face had turned red.
The story was really typical of siblings, as in Emi was the one who didnt like how her older sister was the best part of everything. She hated how her mother seemed to notice her older sister more and she always got scolded. Everyone reprimanded her in being the same as her older sister but Emi hated it she doesnt realise this at all. And the day she got confessed over the phone and met him by chance she had falled in love with Junta. Which we now can tell was unrequited love in all honesty. haha!
But I liked the theme to it, sakisaka has a way of making a cliche into a beauty. She's a lovely mangaka with a lot of interesting plots. If you havent read any other of her works you should do, especially strobe edge! which is ultimatum of heart aches! I think she does this beautifully she captures it nicely at the right moments.
We understand later on that Emi had fallen in love eve when Junta knows he can't get anywhere. He feels a tad bit jealous here and there when Emi's first love comes back. Although only six chapters, it has a amazing feel to it. So give it a go and I am sure you will like her works! :D Her artwork is a very cute style with big bold eyes which tear up nicely, and pouty open mouths that look kissable her bishounens are fairly good looking but her heroines arent so much but it was nice seeing Emi, I thought she was really cute in a child way!
