It has a compelling cast that encompasses even the most minor side characters. What makes this series something of a gem is that it succeeds where many of its predecessors and peers have failed. However just because something avoids doing something common and boring doesn't inherently mean that it is good. HnR is not bereft of any of the cliches that plague the shoujo genre, but it does avoid the gag-inducing pitfalls that a lot of them succumb to. Well, of course there is-its a romance manga, after all. It would only sound more cliche if there was some romantic development between the two. Suzume is a country bumpkin that moves to the city, and the mysterious man that helps her when she gets lost in the cement jungle happens to be her homeroom teacher. slice of life shoujo manga you have ever seen.
The synopsis is deceptively simplistic in that it reads like any other school, It's not just about falling in love the first time-it's about picking up the pieces when the first time doesn't work, and eventually learning how to fall in love again. That metaphor is strangely appropriate, especially for this manga. But an amusement park ride always comes to an end eventually, then you're left to wait in a long line before you get the opportunity to ride again. Falling in love has been likened many times to being on a rollercoaster-it has its ups, its downs, its twists and turns.
