Manga Review: Special A (S.A.)
S.A. This story is centered around two high school students, Hanazono Hikari and Takishima Kei. However hard she tries in school, Kei always beats her, therefore earning her the title "Ms. #2". Kei, undeniably, is in love with Hikari, and everybody realizes this except for herself! They were introduced to each other at a young age, as their fathers were friends. Assuming that she was the best in wrestling, young Hikari challenged Kei to a wrestling match only to be thoroughly defeated by him. Ever since that fateful incident, Hikari swore to beat Kei in school grades, a sporting event - anything. To do this she has enrolled in the same school as Kei since elementary. Now she attends Hakusenkan, an ultra elite school, that costs her carpenter father a lot of money. Hikari and Kei are the top two students in the school, with Kei holding firmly to that number one position.
This manga is one of your typical shojo manga; chock full of adorable art and beautiful characters! It is also quite humorous, but light enough not to distract from the romance aspect. Maki Minami creates charming characters, who in the end, all have their own happy endings! Perfect for the type of shoujo-lover who likes it when everybody has somebody to end up with. :)
