It's not easy to become and live as a mangaka, Mashiro knows that from his late uncle. At his 9th grade, while trying to keep up with reality, school and then normal job, he left his notebook with a sketch of Azuki, a girl he likes. Tamaki, a first rate student found it and trying to convince Mashiro to draw a manga with his story. Mashiro doesn't like the idea and tries to decline. Tamaki, however, tries to stick to dream and found out that Azuki also wants to be a voice actress and already got a good reply from a production company. Tamaki, then, brought Mashiro to her house and telling her his dream.... Mashiro then tells her that he will write a manga with Tamaki and will ask Azuki to voice their anime. Out of confusion, Mashiro asks her if the dreams become reality, will she marry him? She says yes, only if their dreams become true, and not otherwise!! Now, lifes of wannabe mangakas begin!!!

i really like this manga, it has a nice feel to it everytime i read it. the reason i like this manga is bec. at one point in our lives in some of us, we have those childhood dreams of becoming a manga/comic artist. lol.
this manga also gives you an idea about the lives of the mangakas, how to become one or what troubles you have to go through. overall its a pretty interesting manga. especially for those who likes slice of life plus romance.
same ppl responsible for death note. i was surprise the way they follow-up their successful manga by going the opposite direction (in terms of story - from mystery suspense supernatural to slice of life school life romance). lol. i heard they gonna make an anime of this...
read it. must read~ looks like my other thread failed (kekkaishi) lol.
