Kuchibiru Tameiki Sakura-iro
(Kisses, Sighs and Cherry Blossom Pink)
Author: Milk Morinaga
Artist: Milk Morinaga
A collection of tales about a group of friends from an all-girls school and them falling in love with girls who either are their friends or school mates. Although drawn in a shoujo manga style, there are some visuals that gives emphasis on the emotions of the characters, be it affection, emotional withholding or confusion.
Although focusing on a different set of characters per chapter, the same characters are shown recurring throughout the series. Just like the approach on "Hatsukoi Limited", giving the reader a sense of continuity.
The direction of the stories are average as they come, but the circumstances and/or premise surrounding some of the tales are a bit more interesting.
A somewhat innocent look into the shoujo-ai genre while facing issues of social norms and possibilities.
