Have you heard about this manga ? If you've read it : how did you find it and who introduced you to it ?

(I'll go first )

I got this manga from my corresponding as a gift for my nineteenth birthday (so... it was in 2007 ? Oo Time goes fast...). At first I couldn't stand the drawing. But I became used to it as the story was progressing ! Finally, it became my favorite shoujou manga.

I really like the way Sumire treats Momo, forgetting from time to time that he's a human being and not a real dog XD
