Hi there! I would you to know this shoujo manga that I've read. It's really good to read when you want to get motivated and really want to give up. It's Kyou no Kira-Kun, in english Today's Kira or Closest Love to Heaven. Well you'll know why the title like that when you read it.
Title : Kyou no Kira-kun
Mangaka: Mikimoto Rin
Chapter : 34 end
Genre: Shoujo, Romance, Drama,
School life, Slice of Life, Tragedy
Kira Yuiji is a popular, rich, high school student that like to bully other student. He is in the same class with Nino Okuyama also his neighbor. Nino is called "birdgirl" by other student because she is always carry a stuffed bird (actually it's a real parrot and it can speak) in her shoulder. She is known as a strange, weird girl and abandon with other student. She never spoke with Kira until she know his secret. The secret is Kira will die in a year. At first she doesn't believe it, until she saw it with her own eyes. Then Nino tell her that she will be there until he die. Day by day they pass it with doing what Kira want to do before he die.
There always be a hardship between them, like Kira's relationship with school nurse, his friend Yabe that want him to get back to his "bad"old-self, the story of the parrot and so on. The story is really touching. I love how the story and character develop. It's really sad when you know your loves one will be die so soon. I love the main character Kira and Nino, they just too cute. I cried when read the last 5 chapter. The ending really really great. When I read the whole chapter I start to imagine if I was Kira who has only a year to life. Anyway I recommend this manga for you who loses hope and want to give up. Live your life with the things you want to do and for the one you loves.
