Might this be even angstier than Fruits Basket, and have an even froofier heroine? I think it might!

No, I mean. Apparently it’s possible to create a shoujo manga heroine even more sweet and pure and self-sacrificing than Tohru. Or at least, I don’t remember Tohru giving me a sugar-headache in the very first chapter. Ow.

The scanlations I’ve seen are deeply dreadful. Even if you’ve never heard the phrase before, is it really that hard to figure out that “has a light rear end” means “is promiscuous”? I don’t think that one’s hard.
