Romance From the Thumb

Mangaka: Tsubaki Izumi
Volume: 9 (complete)
Genre: Shoujo, Comedy, School Life
Summary: "Massage Research Society's high-ranking, respected star, Chiaki, is a normal, quiet high-schooler. She falls in love at first sight for the guy with a beauitufl back who rides her bus every morning. but he just happens to be the school's number one good-looking guy Yousuke...?! What will happen....?"

I just read the first few chapters of this one.. and I have to say, it's definitely interesting. The artwork is an unusual style from the manga I normally read, but still very charming in it's own way. And I have to say.. Chiaki is definitely a very interesting character.. she's pretty much completely spaced out unless it comes to things involving massage techniques, myths, ect.. and she happens to be very naive, innocent, and (the only word I can think of to describe it) is a pushover. And Yousuke is definitely a mysterious character.. and I wonder what exactly is behind the bet/challenge he made with Chiaki since it seemed as though he recognized her name. And Saya, her twin sister.. the only way I can think to describe her is, the devil (lol). For being a sister, and a twin sister no less, she's extremely mean/harsh/cruel to Chiaki. I've always thought it'd be really cool to have a twin.. but if they were anything like Chiaki's sister Saya.. I'd rather pass (lol). And the relationship she has with Saya and her mother is quite interesting... (and a little sad). I'm definitely looking forward to finishing this one. To see where to goes with Yousuke and Chiaki.. and the relationship between her mother and Saya (wondering if it changes) and also to see if she learns to defend and stand-up for herself when it comes to her sister. I'd truly like to see her grow strength in that area.

This is so hilarious! It cracks me up that she's attracted to tight muscle pains! This is a nice series though it seems to be losing it's innocence now that the main guy has pheromone power :O

I totally love this manga its unique and a great manga to read though Chiaki is so funny
she must have a hard life having her evil sister living with her xD just sad

I like this manga. The story is interesting and I really like the character of Chiaki!! But they make such a stranger couple, maybe that's why they are cute together!!

I like it too; they're so cute together!

I just started reading this series, but I really like it! It's funny in a really sweet way. It's interesting, because it incorporates massage.

same here
i love that she ended up with him

but must hard moment when Yousuke lost his muscle cramp = he become deadly weapon for all human :)) (i think it in vol5 )

Not bad, really, but not quite good either. It's pleasing to read if you haven't got anything else to read first.

I didn't really get into this one. I actually thought it was boring. I don't recommend it honestly.

Hi!

The story is interesting and wonderful!
They make a couple cute!!
