S.A, Vol. 7 Paperback – Illustrated, 4 Nov. 2008

the manga I received in the post was damaged. cover and first page are torn. I discoved this a few minutes after opening the parcel, however thankful the other manga that was in the parcel was fine.

I decided to the purchase this manga after watching the anime. I know that the anime is never as good as the manga. That is definitely true here. I loved the anime and I am even more in love with the manga. The relationship between Hikari and Kei immediately grasps my attention. Why? Because I can relate to their competitive and slightly sarcastic relationship. For those who do not like a slow developing relationship, this story may not be for you. However, I still recommend giving it a chance. Something about their friendship and slow developing relationship helps make this series.
