We Were There

review 1: ***This review is for volumes 1-4***Summary: Nana has a crush on Yano, but he's still upset over the death of his last girlfriend. When the two do get together, it's the stereotypical "girl wants to be loved forever, boy wants to have sex" contrast. Finally, a secret from Yano's past threatens the lovebirds' shaky relationship.Yay!: Well, the portrayal of teen romance is certainly spot-on. The constant flip between whether Yano's deceased girlfriend was a victim or a b-word is interesting.Nay!: Oh, the endless angst! Once again, it's teen heroine thinking she's desperately in love with the cute guy who treats her like dirt. I liked Nana's habit of smacking Yano back into line when they were friends, but after they got together, she turned into an over-dramatic doormat. The... more story is difficult to get into unless you just love soap operas. I wouldn't recommend it.Added weirdness: The heroine shares a name with the dead girlfriend, but not much is made of the coincidence.
review 2: I guess that Yano's inability to get over Nana led to the end of this part of the book. I really hate how Nanami won't notice how Take loves her either. She's so dense, and she never believes that anything is wrong until it's finally in front of her face. This series is really horrible for me now. I hoped to enjoy it, but that's not going to happen. And I know that Nanami's still going to be chasing after Yano, even though they broke up. less
