[camathalion]

do you like it?

wat do you think of it?

personally, i loved the series.

It's a classic. Too bad all the author's other works are pretty much pale imitations of this success.

I OWN IT!

I bought like, volumes 1-10 at a used manga store in LA for $10. hehehehehehe....

Haven't actually read too much of it though, but it was pretty funny.

I really enjoyed it for the first few volumes, but I didn't really like the ending.
I can't say much more than that because that's all I remember, having read the series a long while back.

Love it, one of the good seinen genre out there, unlike seinen that are towards fanservice(and it's getting alot lately).

Can't find anything like Living game now. Mangaka are money greeder.

What are his other works?

In chronological order, (deep breath)

Kiken ga Walking, Ikibata Shufu-ramble, Cocktail Ponytail, Wazuka Icchomae, Half na Bun Dake, Living Game, Kekkon Shiyo Yo, Yume ka mo Shinnai, Om-rice, Ki ni Naru Yome-san, Honki no Shirushi, Luna Heights, Kaiju no Ie.

Mochiru Hoshisato has been around for 20 years, and these are all basically in the same genre of lighthearted comedy/romance for grown-ups. Living Game is easily the longest of all of them.

Dance till tommorow are in the same genre with a little more comedy in a MATURE way. Make sure to check it out, you won't regret.

Apart from that, I don't think any shoujo can be in the same as Living Game, the fact that shoujo are usually towards romance with a non-reality love story(hope you understand what I mean, not too good in english). IMO, shoujo is just not my genres, the only shoujo I like would be please save my earth, it's unique, and I think it's shoujo/seinen, I could be wrong. Hehe

Seconded. More classics of Big Comic Original/Spirits getting translation would be nice.
