While I'm not a huge fan of shoujos jumping all over the panel twisting their agile bodies this way and that, it looked cute on our genki heroine Yuzuki, who suffers from what others label a "brother complex". Honestly, I don't see that, all I see is a sister who's accustomed to being the center of attention in her brother's kind eyes, and doesn't want the warmth they share to be lost. So obviously when he gets a girlfriend who replaces Yuzuki's specially prepared for onii san bentos with her own, Yuzuki is feeling a bit low. In a daze she bumps into a fellow wholooks shockingly like her brother, only not related to her (already a sign!). She somewhat stalks him to his school the next day and somehow ends up doing all things weird giving them both a very suspicious opinion of her! But there's more to Atsushi-kun than being critical of her abnormal behavior and Yuzuki feels this chance encounter is fate. Only what will Onii san think of his doppelganger hanging around his precious Yuzuki and won't Atsushi realize what a true head case Yuzuki is if he ever sees her brother and the similarity in their faces?! Eek looks like a recipe for trouble.

What really appealed to me in this very touching and overly sweet (not cloyingly so) story is the female lead Yuzuki and her tenacity. You can really sympathize with every reaction she suffers in the story, regardless of whether it’s related to onii san or not. Her mortification and despondency is portrayed extremely well even though I feel her general facials seem a little over the top to me. Atsushi is drawn really beautifully and his reserved expressions do his serious personality full justice. His personality is developed to be completely dashing and kind which fits with Yuzuki’s idealization of him.

Comic timing is really exploited to the hilt in this story. Normally in a manga, when the heroine is being assaulted, you KNOW the hero is right around the corner rushing to save her. But in this one, whenever Yuzuki is absorbed in her own thoughts and you don’t expect anything any distractions, BOOM appears Atsushi with his somewhat concerned-for-Yuzuki’s-stability expression! This also leads to his first (and second and third) impression of her being rather creepy which is also depicted hilariously.

I especially love the secondary character of the brother here. He's uncharacteristically kind and understanding. The artwork for the bishies was good in that it imparts a happy atmosphere to the entire story rather than a doki doki one, which fits the plot. The situations are unique and a panel or two will really make you break into girlish giggles coz it's just so darn unbelievable how unlucky Yuzuki can get! Reading this is a great opportunity to fall for Seizuka's works and I'm sure you'll be looking forward to more from the mangaka after this.
