Imadoki


For Tanpopo Yamazaki, life at the elitist Meio Academy seems way out of her league. The daughters of wealthy families snub her, other students make light of the fact that she actually tested into Meio instead of relying on family connections, and the cute boy she saw tending a dandelion the day before wouldn't even acknowledge her existence. Hoping to make friends and have some fun, Tanpopo starts up a gardening committee, but will this help her survive in a school where superficiality and nepotism reign supreme?

Imadoki is a good, 26 chapter, manga by the great mangaka Yuu Watase. It is short, but very sweet. It is reminiscent of Watase's other works, with the main characters looking similar, and love blooming slowly. The fruitation is not really found until the end, but it's a very nice ending.
