I was so upset when I realised the second season wasn't dubbed in English, and I've tried to watch it but their voices are painfully high pitched. To make up for the cliffhanger I decided to read all the manga last year. It was so cutesy, but also a little creepy how romance focused it was given that Ichigo was like, 12? Definitely some consent issues there (which is even creepier given it's aimed at kids). All 3 guys were a little weird for my tastes. But all in all I still liked the concept behind it and I wish it had more focus because it's actually a pretty great story with some big twists.<br />Great list :DHelia (Rose Quartz Reads)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00829298596495957165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107658697270291054.post-61894170648514793412017-02-01T01:10:22.947-06:002017-02-01T01:10:22.947-06:00Can you believe I've never read manga?
