Junai Bride

Fairly unremarkable. All the storylines seemed like ripoffs and there was little to no plot. It read like a summary. The art was pretty good in most places, but pretty generic as most shojo is. The characters were so plain that I honestly couldn't tell one from the other sometimes. There weren't any real moments of character or action or any real movement. They were pretty stagnant. Having said all this, I still think this is a solid 5. It's alright if you need some boost for some shojo or some inspiration. As a writer, sometimes my characters and plots get a little stagnant andI need a boost or a chance to rework my story. I usually need to read some shojo to get my brain moving, especially if I'm writing romance. For that purpose, this format was great, no matter how cheesy and cliche it was. However, I probably won't be rereading it, seeing that it was pretty boring and I didn't find it to be special at all. I would recommend this if: you like short stories, you don't like committing to long manga, you like fast-paced things, you like shojo I would NOT recommend this if: you want a substantial story line, you were looking from something special, you want development or plot Have a great day everyone!
