Reviews for Hiren Trip

I stumbled on this manga when someone posted a screenshot from it. Since it's pretty short, I figured, 'Why not give it a try?' The story is... predictable. I'm not talking about the typical 'everyone knows exactly what's going to happen' type of predictable, but more on 'since this happened, this will probably happen next' sort of thing. But that's not entirely bad, since it makes the characters' actions and reactions to the scenarios that much more realistic. Seeing as this manga is only 8 chapters long, it did enough. The art is typical slice of life shoujo style, but that's what makes it pleasing to theeyes. The characters' movements and expressions aren't exaggerated, but enough to let the reader know what is happening.

The characters are your typical girl that falls in love with the really cool, smart, handsome guy. As cliche as the characters seem, the entire manga is focused on their development, from following their dreams to breaking away from their pasts. Without this development in mind, this would just be any plain old shoujo. The only thing that bothered be about the characters is that they introduced quite a few minor character, but only went up to shallow waters to give them a better background. Since this manga is not that long, I understand that, but I would have preferred it if the author at least paid more attention to the little guys.

For only 8 chapters, this manga was a nice time waster. Not too complicated, not too boring, just right for a quick read.

As you probably noticed I didn't grade this manga very high. Let me just say this manga isn't exactly bad but it definitely isn't excellent either. I found myself skimming through chapters because I didn't find anything particularly interesting. The concept was ok nothing new as far as I can see. There isn't really too much to say about the characters except that they aren't very dislikable but they aren't too captivating to me. The main character actually isn't bad at all just…normal.I will say at the least she isn't annoying or runs away. The art was actually pretty good nothing looked disproportionate or outof place but other than that I don't find myself rereading this manga again. I recommend you try this manga but don't expect too much from it.

My ratings: Story is 6 (fair). Art is 8 (very good). I like the art style; it's clean and cute Character is 8 (very good). The other two members of the student council shine to me! I love them and their roles. I also like Miyu herself, because she is earnest and doesn't shy away from hard work. It's Kousei who I have hard time actually liking. My personal enjoyment is 6 (fair). I liked how it started but felt very uncomfortable halfway in, because I don't like how Kousei treated Miyu, even though I get that he's in a difficult position. Overall is 7 (good).
