What's with that description? Unless I have my manga mixed up I think I read the first chapter of this awhile back and that description is way off. I guess it's more likely I'm mixed up though.

I kind of forget about this one, even though I wanted to pick it up.

I love Toyama's art, and I enjoy that uniquely shojo ecchi she has in her manga. x'D

This means she's down to three manga, one of which is apparently a yonkoma. I hope she gets to start another series. Hopefully in Bessatsu Friend or something.

Isn't Aoba-kun's Confessions still on-going too? I'm amazed she can work on so many different series at once.

I really love her art, so might have to check this out if it ever gets licensed.

Yeah, that runs in Nakayoshi. I thought she was only working on these two manga, I didn't know she was working on other ones.

Her art is nice, but unfortunately all her characters tend to look the same. The plots are also not that great.

We got the description from the issue of ARIA that announced the manga back in 2014. However, the description of the manga's volume 1 on Kodansha's website does differ a little, so we've changed the description in this article to match the one that's on Kodansha's website.

I like the story for Missions of Love and Aoba-kun just fine, though the former was clearly taking the best concepts from her "failures". (I am Here, Manga Dogs) And at least for Aoba-kun, it looks like her style's been evolving to look less samey.
