Review

Oh jeebus' rice, this manga is just so damn good! If you liked Tail of the Moon, you'll like this manga even more! It's filled up with fun stuff like a crazy stalker guy, one of the basic shojo manga stories (girl meets rich guy and they fall in love in some way), a playboy gambling brother, and much more! I looooove this manga! I love how it takes place in a historical setting. I love how the characters aren't totally the same as Tail of the Moon (since authors are known to write mangas with really, really similar characters) and I mean there are some similarities but not too much. I love how it's just kooky and different. It's a breath of awesomeness. It's hilarious and it has crazy drama that isn't annoying. It makes me wasnt to hurry up and finish the ending because it's hard for me to stop reading lol

What are you waiting for, go for it.
