Kono S o, Mi yo!
---- This is an interesting series that has some good story and drama to it. And I have to say, it's had some great twists so far. Spoiler for Chapter 22:

Kono S wo Mi yo ranks on top of the seinen batch of manga I’m currently reading which includes Hetakoi, Velvet Kiss, and Nozoki Ana. The concept of the story is similar to Kitazaki Taku’s previous manga, Sakuranbo Syndrome and Cupid no Itazura Nijidama with a different twist added in. I also like the tattoo concept where it’s a gift and a curse. Best thing about the manga is Kitazaki Taku's character designs. Love how he draws women in their 20's/30's.

heh definitely one of the best reads on my seinen/romance list would recommend this also Sakuranbo Syndrome
well i hope the scanlators would catch up |
Kitazaki is one of my favorite manga authors currently, definitely check out this series (on Vol 6 now) and his other stuff if you can.

Loved Sakuranbo Syndrome, even with its rather shitty ending. Kitazaki does some really good romance stuff.
I just finished reading Vol.5 of Kono S o Mi yo!, it finally delivered some explanations for Chizuru's irritating behaviour. Still hope Rin ends up with his childhood friend though. |

It's just a bit of a tease. I have Vol 6 myself and those are a bit misleading. |

Kono S wo Mi certainly has an interesting premise. I liked how in the early chapters Rin went about experimenting with the limits of his powers; that's certainly how I would go about doing it ;). I'm also liking how someone else is using his powers for her own benefit (and amusement?).
I'll definitely like to see how things develop and if there are any new twists. Spoiler for Random Thoughts:

Sorry about being so late with this, I went on vacation so I didn't have a chance to do it.
Anyway, here's a pretty short/basic summary. Spoiler:
Sorry about it being messy, I wrote that all at once and didn't bother to edit it. Anyway, Vol 6 has alot of really nice panels of Makoto and tons of great looks/cute faces for her. Makoto's my favorite character in this Kitazaki series and I love all the time he spent on her. |
Thanx a lot!!

Thanks for the summary Shouta.
A gift and a curse is the best description for the stigma. Spoiler:
|
Manga is definitely not going to wind down. There's been no resolution the origin of the Stigma and no real resolution to who Rin will end up with. Then there's still Takako and Risa around too. I suspect the manga will run as long as Sakuranbo will with how the story is being paced.

The stigma is being treated as if were a macguffin of sorts, I think. Similar to the other works of the author from the Cupid series (a mysterious male fertility disease, an age regressing disease, a super accurate spouse-matching program, and so on...), the stigma is just there to drive the plot while staying out of the actual human drama.
I won't be surprised if it doesn't get fully explained in the end. |
