I never really paid attention to shojos and majokkos, and the anime made out of this manga fleet under my radar long time ago; causally I ended up reading this manga and imho is a very good piece of art. Characters are very nice and addictive, the story is cool although at time can be a bit formulaic and with some childish moments, but overall is very enjoyable; the romantic part of the manga imho is very well made and exposed, a strong element of this manga that unfortunately is missed out in the anime. Himeko and Daichi love story is very nicely developed along thestory, especially starting from chapter 20 (mid of the manga), while in the anime is not that interesting.

Definitely a very good read
