I haven't had as much opportunity/time for LJ lately as I want and I've been in a junkie-like withdrawal. I am waiting for the weekend like mad to catch up...
I wouldn't give up on Tenshi ja Nai just yet. At least read volume two before you write it off. It does have certain similarities with W Juliet (one of my top 5 favorite manga) in the cross-dressing guy. But in a lot of other ways I think it bears a closer resemblance to Kurosagi (read volume 2 & you'll understand
( ... )
I actually read vols 1, 3-6 (2 was out). I found out about his father (if that is what you mean) and trying to kill himself and Isuzu, but the thing is, I am still not warmed up to him, even after 6 volumes. I just...I don't know. He doesn't work for me (not because he's unrealistic, but he just doesn't grab me). And the heroine is a bit too nice. I'd have broken his head :)
I think she's a ditz. 100% totally blonde. He kisses her & she never wonders what the heck that means?! She walks into anything without batting an eye. And she's got 0 self confidence.
But she's so strong when it comes to standing up for what's right or protecting those who matter to her.
And I love how it infuriates him how clueless she is. How he can't understand why he chose her.
It's not one of my favorite manga by any means. But it's sweet & got those classic, hot guy coming to the rescue, scenes.
