| Alternative Title: Your Eyes Speak to Me A manga created by Nanao Mio Disclaimer: Photos/Scans - Sound of Jewels Scanlations & MangaChapter.net |
The main characters in the story would be Sekiguchi Aoi & Toujyou. The situation would be Toujyou bluntly
proposing marriage to Aoi in a cafe after their initial meeting. Aoi taking us
down in her memory lane, she took care of an elder man, who actually left a
will stating his grandson will marry Sekiguchi Aoi. The grandson is proved to
be Toujyou, himself. However, Aoi already has a boyfriend which she pointed out
to Toujyou, but Toujyou countered it by saying, he already knows. Thus, Aoi
asked for explanation which the guy gave willingly, saying he already checked
Aoi's background. (Okay! Stalker much?! LOL) Anyway, it came back to another
failed proposal of marriage and an argument about Aoi's useless boyfriend, who
is Yui by the way. Oh by the way, Toujyou is
a really shy guy when it comes to Aoi... later you'll find out why, but first
see what Aoi did to make sure Toujyou looks at her...
 |
| I actually do what Aoi said most of the time. ^ I looked at the forehead to those people I need to look at but is to shy to meet their eyes. *thumbs up* good advice, Aoi! |
So, it continues. Everyday, Toujyou tries to visit Aoi always
asking and requesting that she marries him.
 |
| ^ THAT is one hell of a determination and persistence... phew~ ^_^ |
Until one day, Aoi received a call from useless bf asking her to
send money. This made Aoi doubt their relationship but still goes on ignoring
every warning instincts. (How stupid can you get?) That's when Aoi and Toujyou
also got into an argument about the will and how he never really needed
her. So Toujyou being Toujyou left. However, the same routine of proposing
and declining continues, until Yui (dang, arrogant prick!) called asking for
money. Aoi decided to check out where he is when she heard the background voice
of the campaign she's watching just across the street from the cafe window.
There she heard, how she was fooled by the guy who doesn't even consider her a
girlfriend.
 |
| ^how cool is that guy?! *day dreaming* I hope someone can do that to me someday... |
Toujyou came and rescued her by beating up the guy, but ended up
the one beaten.
 |
| ^ NOW, I just wanna say ... "Toujyou kun... Atashi...Suki!" kyaaaaa~ <3 |
Anyway, the story continues with the same routine, until Aoi saw
Toujyou with another woman (oooooh...). Now, Aoi was invited by Toujyou for a
small talk, which Aoi completely misunderstood since the beginning because of
how Toujyou would avoid her eyes (which for me is completely normal, because
duh!? The guy's shy!!). Toujyou told her about the practical joke (which isn't
funny, at all?!) played by his grandfather. With Aoi, mistress of
misunderstanding, put words into Toujyou's mouth like he doesn't need her
anymore or so, made him very angry and put out that he walked out.
 |
| ^ Aoi no baka!! *grrrrr* |
Aoi, finally (yes~ FINALLY) understood her real feeling followed
and told Toujyou her fears and needs.
After they worked out their difference
and Toujyou stating that even before they met, he was already in love with Aoi,
it ended with a sweet kiss.
And a funny bashful moment for Toujyou. Fin.
Okay! So here's the very short...ahmm-hmm... yeah short summary
of Sono Me, Kuchi Hodo Ni. I
never liked full romance manga but with this one-shot, I may have to rethink my
opinion about dropping them as fast as a gun can shoot. I loved how fast phased
and compact this manga is; nevertheless, the plot is full, funny and direct to
the point that some audience (like me!!) would love to have more! Well what can
I say, if a guy showed me this face...
 |
*nosebleed* Oh my, don't be nervous, I don't bite... unless you ask me too~ *lecherous grin*
|
 |
| *doki doki* OmO, I think I just fell in love... |
... dang it! I will be the one to propose to him right there and
there!! *tries to stop nosebleed*
The characters are funny and quite compatible with each other,
which made this a light manga but not bland. This unique situation with unique
conditions such as Aoi's need for altruism and Toujyou's tendency to be too
blunt, are just some of the best points in this story. If I could petition Mio
sensei, I would ask her to have a serialized volume for this. However, I do
understand that she already concluded the story at the end. But, hey, unless
there's no paper left to draw or write, there won't be a definite ending to any
stories, right? So, I'm still keeping my hopes up!
This is a one-shot romance manga, I would recommend! You
definitely won't regret reading it!
Last note: So sorry if it is far too long~ I just enjoyed doing
a summery and review for this manga~ don't take it against me too much! ^_^
