Ah, B Gata H Kei. I remember being so reluctant to watch the anime when I first heard about it, yet in the end, I ended up watching it and falling absolutely in love with it. I loved its humor and the relationship between Yamada and Kosuda; if it were any better, the anime could have gotten a perfect score out of me. The manga, which I started reading months after finishing the anime, managed to bring out the best in this series and give fans a satisfying conclusion.

Back when I watched the anime, I wrote a pretty bad review for it which has since been deleted. Now that time has passed and I have gained more review-writing experience, I shall now present my review of the manga for B Gata H Kei!

B Gata H Kei follows a girl named Yamada (first name withheld), whose goal is to have sex with 100 guys before her high school graduation. There is just one little obstacle standing in her path, though; despite the fact that she is popular amongst the male students of her school, she actually has never had sex before. Thus, she decides that if she's going to achieve that goal, she's going to have to lose her virginity. Luckily for her, she meets a fellow virgin, Takashi Kosuda, and decides that her first time will be with him. Yamada then tries time and time again to get Kosuda to have sex with her, but as time goes on, she actually starts to genuinely fall in love with him....

The art from this manga is as good as in its anime adaptation, with solid character designs. For example, Kosuda was meant to be plain, and Youko Sanri definitely made him look plain! Now, the story in the manga is slower-paced than in the anime, and for some people, that can be really irritating. However, the story's slow pace actually works in the manga's favor; it provides character development for its many characters, from the main leads to the supporting cast. The character development in the manga not only made me like Yamada and Kosuda more than ever, but it actually made me like supporting characters that I originally didn't pay a lot of attention to. One notable example is Katase; I didn't really care for her too much in the anime, but when the manga shifts its focus to her, especially her budding relationship with another supporting character named Kudou, she's actually a rather fun and interesting character to follow.

Overall, I absolutely loved B Gata H Kei. If you're a fan of the anime adaptation or just don't mind lots of ecchi moments, what the heck are you doing? You need to stop reading this review and go read it right now. It doesn't matter whether you're a virgin or not; it's still great to see two virgins lose it to each other and find love along the way!
