What I dislike:
(This is with regard to my website.) Taking anything that BELONGS to MY site without my approval... especially for non-personal purposes (e.g. websites) AND without acknowledging my site. I suppose I have mentioned this numerous times in my website ^^;;... this is because I put originality of my website in a really serious light. Please, please, if you want to take anything from my site, please do e-mail me and I will see to it & reply asap. Thank you. 

-My website and me-

This website was first put up on Yahoo! Geocities on January 2002. However, I decided to change the look of my site and therefore, I decided to delete that site <http://www.geocities.com/itazura_na_kiss> and start 'afresh'. I decided to post my website on Freeservers instead when I had, at last, done something for every section of my site. That did take some time taking into consideration that I have other commitments and that it is not easy to get certain volumes of the manga. (Yay! I finally got the complete set of the manga on 21 April 2002!!!) All in all, I have spent a lot of time on this site and I sincerely hope you will like it. ^.^

-Why I created this website-

o Because I love this manga!!!
Actually, reading mangas isn't really my type of hobby... and the only manga that can captivate me so is Itazura na Kiss! I like the plot and the look of the manga... it's GREAT! And this brings me to my 2nd point (or you can call it my main 'objective')...

o Because I want to share the pleasure of reading this manga with everyone!!!
I want to let people who love mangas know about this manga & read this manga... it's too good to miss and I know they will like it as well.  I want to let people who do not particularly like mangas to know about this manga and read it as well... and develop and interest for mangas or at least Itazura na Kiss (like me!).

-How I feel about the manga-
...or put it as why I love the manga so much ^.^...

Actually, there are many, many reasons (but it'll be too boring for you to read ALL of them)... it boils down to these two points:

1) I like the plot... it is very unique and special. I hate those typical kind of romance stories (esp. triange lovelife), and Itazura na Kiss presents a different type of love story... sweet, touching and humourous all blended perfectly into one! Even though sometimes I will feel sad for Kotoko (esp. before their marriage), this feeling soothes away when I notice how Naoki really cares for Kotoko more than Kotoko's love-rivals (e.g. Reiko) and when I see how encouraging and nice Mama is to Kotoko before and after the marriage (Mama isn't like those Cinderella's-stepmother kind of mother-in-law... that makes me like the manga even more. ^.^)

2) I like the way the characters look. *heh* In fact, the reason why I even started reading a page of the manga is because Naoki looked toooooo handsome. ^.^ Kotoko looks sweet and cute as well... I like the way all, or most of, the characters look.
