No reviews... WHAT??? I'll keep this brief.

Hina Nakamura, a high school girl who's just started a fresh new term is looking to make friends, so in an attempt to make friends, she speaks with her desk mate, Mishima. Mishima at school is your usual soft spoken, elegant, cute high school girl, however. Outside of school, her appearance does a full 180, and she switches to a goth-punkish style that Nakamura can't help but fawn over. This 36 chapter manga mostly focuses on the day to day antics between Nakamura and Mishima as the two grow closer to each other.

As far as the general plot ... goes, there's not much that stands out. We've seen the story between two characters growing closer to each other a million times. However, I do like how this series does make an effort to stand out with the unique punk theme, and the use of darker elements as a way for the characters to stand out. This series certainly does have it's own spin, and I think that adds so much more reason to read.

This series reminds me heavily of 'the guy she was interested in wasn't a guy at all', unsurprisingly. Both series share a vast amount of similar features such as: the dynamics between the main characters: Nakamura is INCREDIBLY similar to Aya Oosawa and Minishima is INCREDIBLY similar to Koga Mitsuki. Both series also have very distinct art styles that allow you to tell at a SINGLE glance what series it is, and I honestly love that. I'm a fan of both works, and I'm surprised that this series has been as under the radar as it has. This series earns the "HIDDEN GEM" stamp approved by yours truly.

8/10, super creative series! (not a fan of the ending, though...)
