MARRYING A RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE

I'm writing this more as a warning than a review, so I'll keep it brief. AVOID THIS ABSOLUTE PIECE OF LAZY, UNORIGINAL GARBAGE AT ALL COSTS. There's nothing worth salvaging in this manga. The only somewhat acceptable aspect is the art, but even that's just standard shoujo fare—flowery and giant-eyed clichés. The plot has been done countless times before, always executed better elsewhere, and it’s mind-numbingly predictable. The characters are mere stereotypes; not one of them is likable or feels remotely human. I’m astonished at how a manga, a mere 21 chapters long, can evoke such intense hatred from me—it truly does.

Story: 8  
It followed a generic "loner" storyline, but it was handled well without being excessive. The author crafted it in a way that made it relatable to everyone.  

Art: 9  
The artwork is truly exceptional. It's incredibly cute without going overboard on the eyes. The style remains consistent throughout, and Sumino stands out as the most adorable female character in shoujo manga.  

Character: 8  
Not bad at all. Sumino is well-developed, while the two male characters didn't have enough chapters to foster a deeper connection with the readers.  

Enjoyment: 9  
I genuinely enjoyed it. This shoujo story managed to win my heart, and the only reason I didn't give it a 10 is that I wished there was more depth to the narrative.  

Overall: 8  
Give it a read if you're looking for a great story! It's fairly short and doesn't drag on unnecessarily.

I'll cut to the chase - this manga seriously undermines the readers' intelligence.  

First off, the plot is painfully predictable. You can pretty much guess everything after reading just the first chapter. There are a few so-called "plot twists," but none of them come as any real surprise. The story is drowning in overused clichés, and there aren't even minor surprises to make it feel remotely original. But these weren't my biggest issues, as many great mangas have successfully worked with similar tropes. What truly made me lose all hope were the shallow characters and the overly pretentious storytelling.  

The best aspect of this manga, if I had to say, was probably the art style, though it wasn't really my cup of tea.  

I was expecting something mediocre at best, but ended up feeling deeply disappointed. Save yourself the trouble and don't waste your time like I did.

This tale begins a bit too reminiscent of "Kimi ni Todoke" for my taste. Nevertheless, as it unfolded, it turned into an uplifting narrative about the heroine blossoming into a remarkable individual. I appreciated the artwork, and the characters were both profound and joyful, which is always a positive. In summary, it was quite excellent but not among my top favorites.

This manga was absolutely incredible! It was moving and heartwarming. I'm truly glad I came across it. This is a highly relatable story for many people. You genuinely feel compassion for Sumino and hope that she finds friends and won't be lonely forever.  

I also appreciate how the romance developed naturally in the story without becoming too overwhelming, allowing Sumino to handle it well. The focus remains firmly on Sumino, as it should.  

This was truly an enchanting story that offers insight into what it feels like to be completely alone, with no one there to turn to. Many struggle with being sociable, much like Sumino, and just need someone to reach out. This really conveys an important lesson about being the person brave enough to make that connection!

A series about a girl who is a wallflower, with only two strangers from the internet as her friends. This manga demonstrates that you don't need to live in the same town as your friends to form meaningful connections. Sometimes, all it takes is a blog and two people willing to engage with your thoughts. This is at least an easy 8/10. The art is appealing, the story is well-crafted and relatable, even if you do have some friends in real life. It's a series, but I recommend savoring it slowly. I can envision this becoming an anime produced by PA Works or KyoAni. This is something I will always suggest to those looking for something more gentle and grounded.

The title translates to "I am here!" I never knew about this book until I stumbled upon it at my local library. It was absolutely worth the read. The main character is one of those individuals who are just naturally quiet, much like many anime characters who sit at the back of the classroom next to the window.

Now, the protagonist has a blog. She has two friends: Mega Pig and a cat-like guy (I'm really sorry, I forgot his name). One day, a kid from school approaches her and says, "I've been watching you," but in a good way.

Suddenly, she starts becoming a little more of someone who talks. But here's the twist: the kid who spoke to her is THE MOST POPULAR KID IN SCHOOL, and then his friend also takes an interest in her! This book is definitely a very sweet story with romantic undertones, yet it isn't overly romantic. The narrative warms your heart and leaves you feeling good inside.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a tender tale.

This book is just... amazing!! I love love books that capture important stuff and mutism is one of them and I love bully books which made this one perfect!! I totally recommend reading it!
