GE: Good Ending

Synopsis

Seiji Utsumi, a below-average member of his high school's tennis club, is hopelessly in love with team captain and upperclassman Shou Iketani—a cute and bubbly prankster who frequently makes him the victim of her mischief. Unable to even look her in the eye without blushing, he often slips away from practice to watch her from afar. In a fateful turn of events, Seiji is caught in the act of admiring Shou by Yuki Kurokawa, a popular and attractive girl in his club. As the only one who knows Seiji's secret, Yuki blackmails him into getting closer with Shou, gladly offering romantic advice along his path to finally confessing. But as Yuki observes Seiji's pure-hearted and gentle nature from up close, can she really accept only being a witness to his good ending? [Written by MAL Rewrite]

The story took a long time for me to really get into after the first couple volumes, but then it gets pretty good in the latter half. The art is great, I love the way the faces/expressions are drawn and portrayed, it really makes it so that you don't even have to read what they say, you know what the characters are thinking. The main characters are quite deep, while I couldn't really connect to any characters on a personal level, I felt like I could still live through them, their past, and their story. My enjoyment really wavered throughout, although I did end up findingmyself really liking one of the characters and stuck through it to find out what happens in the end. Overall I would recommend this for anyone who likes that slice of life/dark romance that has a little ecchi but doesn't go overboard with it. Definitely for 16+ I'd say.
