Ao Haru Ride, Vol. 3

Didn’t knew it was used but well it came in great condition and packaging overall good

Got the book in a well condition and I am very happy with it🥰🥰

Their art is so visually stunning. The boys are all unstylishly attractive, and the girls... ahhh, the girls. With their big, deep doe-eyes & ruffled hair. Such beautiful girls. I simply love this author's style. They are amazing with watercolors. The page with the black oil-paint background is also intriguing. Another thing I adore about this mangaka is the stories. So easily relatable to anyone of any age. After all, no matter how old we get, we never forget our youth, our "glory days", if you will. Whether we look back with fondness, derision, or a bit of both, we all remember what it was like during those days. The mountains of homework. Our crushes. Our favorite teachers. Bullying. Making friends. Falling in love. So, I really admire this creator for being able to create interesting, engaging stories of youth that we all easily relate to. Art, well, as I said, this mangaka is one of my most beloved creators, so I can't really give an objective rating. Same goes with dialogue. I so easily fall in love with this author's characters that they could spend the whole series quoting hip-hop, & I'd likely feel it to be on par with Shakespeare. Characters, believable, likeable, relatable, oh, are they ever relatable!

Just like the picture.

Très belle histoire décrite par l’autrice. J’ai bien aimé le relire en anglais, plusieurs fois afin de voir les différentes points de vue de chaque hero/héroïne. Ça touche les thèmes de la morte, perte d’un être cher (père, mère), le deuil, le premier amour, l’amitié, les faux-semblants, la vie de lycéen japonais, le soutien, et bien d’autres

Granddaughter loves these so bought her 4 for xmas good quality great price .
