[Read all▲▼] Strobe Edge (manga) [Rating▲▼] Very good [Comment▲▼] 
This is a very cute story of first love. Nanako has never experienced love until she falls for Ren, but unfortunately, Ren has a girlfriend. The manga is basically about Nanako learning to manage her feelings/expectations. It was great up until volume 6, where Ren and his girlfriend split. After that it begins to drag a little and the reasons he and Nanako are apart feel contrived. The final volume is great though and very satisfying. In the end, yes this is just another high school set shoujo, but I think the writing was a cut above the rest. The characters were genuinely likable and easy to root for and nothing here offended my feminist sensibilities as I really hate deeply sexist material in works for girls. =(
