Reviews for Pretty Haru

This is pretty dumb in that way that you get enjoyment out of laughing at how dumb something is, but you would never recommend it to anyone and probably wouldn't reread it again yourself. It's a pretty standard story, especially for its time. A male lead who's a pretty big jerk to the female lead (although he often ends up making a fool of himself more than he does anyone else), a female lead who is considered unattractive by the era's standards and is a sympathetic doormat, very little character or story development just hopping from one plot beat to the next, pretty subpar art, anda 'she suddenly becomes pretty!' ending. There are far better interpretations of this type of story, so if you're looking for something good, you should read one of those instead. But if you like laughing at how dumb something is and don't mind the above nonsense, then sure. Give this a shot.

I don't personally feel like my time was wasted, but this is definitely not high-quality storytelling and art. It's just...dumb.
