review 1: I wish a bit disappointed with the ending. I was a bit upset that there was no closure for Azuma and Sachie. When she left, there was no special goodbye for him or anything...and that really bothered me. I know the closure was supposed to be his scene at the hospital with the flowers, but I wasn't satisfied with that. I wanted them to have one last moment together...but basically she was like "Oh my man's here BYE!"There also seemed to be a lot of filler int his volume... for example, the random showing up of Rakuto's grandma.... really had no purpose to it.The one thing I did like was the "10 years after" sketches. Those were pretty cute.Now it's over. It was a decent series. There was a lot more I was expecting out of it. I didn't dislike it, I just think it could have b... moreeen way better if a number of things would have been different. However, I'm not a manga artist nor writer, so it's not my choice. I think overall Fujiwara-san did a good job.
review 2: What a great series! I'm so sad the story's over! But I'm thrilled with the way it ended, an excellent mix of finality and possibility for everyone! I had a heavy heart for poor Azuma, he must really have loved Sachi to help her get together with Rakuto. I almost started crying when he was crying in the rain with Yuzuki - but he's definitely a flower that would live for a thousand days! I wasn't too impressed with how Rakuto confessed his love to Sachi in the last book - after nine volumes of build up, to just sort of say it without fanfare was a bit anti-climactic. However, they made up for it in this book with lots of separation anxiety and angst, and a really wonderful happy ending! I loved the whole dilemma of all their career paths, thinking about what they wanted to do with their lives in the present, with relation to their pasts and the people around them, really gave the characters an amazing, four-dimensional realism that was unbelievably endearing. To sum up, there are a lot of great shoujo manga out there, but most of them have moments that are too heavy-handed, too cliche, the characters are too half-assed and wishy-washy or predictable, etc; but Wild Ones didn't really have any of those defects, it was unique, funny and charming, the story flowed smoothly, yet it took twists and turns that kept me guessing and turning pages. It was really a wonderful series, beautifully drawn, and really just the right length for the story it was trying to tell. I really recommend this to any fans of shojo manga, it will tug at all the right heart-strings and keep your eyes glued to the paper from beginning to end! less
