Honey and Clover, Volume 1 by Chica Umino

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed reading this series once I got into it. Personally, I had begun to feel like too much of the manga was all the same: over the top drama, near death experiences and girls fawning over guys. Honey and Clover is more light and fun, at least in this first volume. It's just a bunch of friends living in tiny apartments, and just squeaking by while going to art school. There's the occasional romance, lots of practical jokes, and silly misunderstandings, but nothing too stressful.
