Summary / hook: All high school freshman Airi Hoshina ever wanted was to someday live in a cozy home with a loving husband, and find joy in the little things in life. As a result, she makes it her daily mission to get to school on time because school legend has it that the longer one's non-tardy streak is, the better boyfriend one will find. But just when her daily routine is working like clockwork, an occurrence of fairytale proportions threatens to disrupt her grand plan.

Review: 8/10
This manga is probably the 5th manga i have ever read and i can easily say one of my favorites. This manga was what got me really into manga. i believe the reason i llove it so much is because of the cover and the story. the story is very unique and very different. but it is all believe-able. It is hilourous and when the manga ends you get a sneak peak of their future, but i almost makes you want more. oh well.....
Now this is about a magical prince (aram don't ask for the last name there is no way i am even going to try and type it) who is cursed by his elder brother, and so to escape his elder brother who is trying to kill him he goes to the none magical land, our land.
The couple, Airi and Aram, are very cute toegther. Eventhough one is 15 and the other is 12( i thought in the manga he was much younger.. i went to look and no one knows not even my friends) thats a 3 year difference, not so bad on paper but think about it..... but only after the manga do you think wow when he was little that was werid. Oh well. the best part is since he is 12 (or whatever age) he is very cute and is very clear with his feelings. but the hardest part for the fan girl is picking which character she (or he) thinks is the hottest... the little aram is sooo cute that it makes things very hard. plus theres guys like raz and his other brother.. Juliel? start with a j.. they are all sexy in their own right.
Also since he is 12 and in love he loves kissing Airi, but since he's aprince he doesn't know about the process of baby making and doesn't understand his own feelings sometimes. And airi has trouble with her consious, because sometimes i believe she feels like a pedophile. Its funny and romantic and cute.
