My Review:

This manga is hilarious and silly which I highly recommend!

I think it's so cool how Kanade is so tall for a 11 yr. old and Kaho is so short and tiny for a 15 yr. old.

Wow all the fifth graders seem to be tall and act mature at times except for their leader who is as short as Kaho and the coolest one of them all.

Even though Kanade looks older and is good looking he is still a 11 yr. old who plays in sandboxes and goes on secret missions which Kaho gets caught up in his childish schemes.

I hated the part where Taga the University student attacks Kaho because he hates how she was raised and the way she acts and feels.

4/5

Thanks Hachette Book Group Canada/Yen Press for sending me this manga to review, greatly appreciated!
