This was one of the first mangas I've ever read and in all honesty I think it's the best manga I've read so far.. to me none can compare to it. Now I must admim I have read good mangas after it but I guess the saying "You'll always love your first manga" rings true with me. My favorite character in this manga is the oh-so cute and tuff Kyo-kun! Now I need to set this straight.. I havn't seen the anime but I hear it wasn't as good as the manga (but the anime is never as god as the manga anyway huh?).
