Another cute and funny story, from Motomi Kyousuke's works. The plot was simple yet hilarious in some way. The art was also good and simply unique, especially the characters' facial expressions. The characters, I must say have very interesting personalities, especially the strong main female character.:) I'm sure anyone will also be able to enjoy it!:))
An obnoxious main character who has the most irritating trait in the entire world of manga: "natural talent". And the main character, Anna, does not let us forget it. If you took a shot every time the word "genius" or "prima donna" comes up, you'd on the floor in a matter of minutes with liver cirrhosis. Her background story is that she was really good at ballet but hurt her knee...somehow...sometime...and then joins archery. Within a couple months (I guess? No timeframe is given) she's on-par with the archery president. But wait, she practiced as much as Naruto did when learning Rasengan, so she somehow doesnot need any instruction in how to hold a bow, shoot it, etc. There was some information about archery in this (and the mangaka is really good at using accurate, interesting information), but not enough. But that's understandable since the center of the story is supposed to be the romance. My favorite character was probably the archery president. Don't understand why he likes Anna, but he's a realistic and kind person. The art, of course, was great. I remember reading a one-shot of this at the end of Dengeki Daisy. This was way, way better than that one-shot but still not my cup of tea.
Katsuragi Anna is a former ballerina who tries to find herself when her dreams of ballet stardom fall short. She is tricked into joining the archery club by her friend... only to find that the president is her childhood rival, Jinnai!? (Source: M-U)
Eh, this story was basic. Cast was decent enough. The romance was predictable, and the story was predictable. If you're into Shoujo sports series, you might like it. It's a short and cute read. Sports series in general are rare, but especially ones with a female protagonist. If you don't care for Shoujo sports series, then you can go ahead and skip this series. You aren't missing much. Honestly, even as someone who does want to get into more Shoujo sports series, this manga wasn't that special. The story is simple: a girl was ballerina andfailed at that, so she pivoted to another sport, archery. This story is a journey of Anna, the main character, learning archery.
