Okay, I'm seriously bored. But I don't have any idea what kind of crazy things I should do here. So I decide to do some manga reviews. This thing has been on my mind for quite a while, but it always stopped in the middle. So here's my first review which shines on the manga named (Kingyo Sou) by Fujitsuka Yuki.

This girl's name is Asuka. The main character. |
In the spring of her second year in high school, Asuka sees Masami playing Japanese drums in a festival, and she falls in love with him. However, Masami is deaf, and he has locked his heart in a world without sound. And thus, the two’s melancholic love miracle quietly begins. This is a pure love story in the middle of summer that will make your heart ache.

Of course, it being a shoujo manga usually means romance, but what make this series stands out was the fact that it deals with the handicapped, which, of course, something not easy to do. But fortunately, the author was quite a genius, so she was able to capture(I think) the budding romance and the hardship that comes with it beautifully.
I particularly like the main character, Asuka. She was such a positive and energetic girl. And what's more, she was a very tolerant girl, trying her hardest to make sure Masami doesn't get hurt from her actions. Well, sometimes she does acts childish, which results to disastrous things happening, but that's just plot devices so we could feel the depth of the stories.

The man above is Masami! |
The support of a family was very important in a story which covers about something like this. And so we have Masami's little brother, Asuka's

That's right! Taisei on the upper right ^^ |
My mind rating : (4.5/5) I'm not totally hooked, but I'm not too indifferent to it either. Since the series ended early, it was quite a good rating to get(?)
Okay, until then! Mata Ashita ^^
