Someone recommended this one to me a long time ago, and I decided now was the time to read it. Since I was searching for a good romance comedy manga again. :)

This one was a very cute manga, though Teru is a bit of an idiot at times (I mean seriously, how does she not know who Daisy is. There are hints everywhere! And isn't it a bit too convenient that he (people who read it know who the he is) is always magically there, out of of nowhere?). But I also really liked her. She was brave, she continued living and did her best everywhere. I felt sorry for her that she lost her brother, and that she is now poor and living alone.
Luckily she has Daisy, a friend of her brother, with whom she is exchanging mails/messages. He always helps her out, though she never really asks for help, she just tries to make things seem totally different, much better than they really are.
I am happy with that attitude. I think I would have hated it if she kept asking Daisy for favours constantly.

I didn't like Kurosaki at times. He was at times just a prick and while I am sure he has good intentions (especially when we find out certain things), but I think he should have done things differently. But he is a good guy, he is there for Teru, helping her out, even giving her food (which she accepts very happily).

The situations in the book are a bit over the top. Seriously? Hackers? Pervy guys? More bad guys? Several other things happening? And that all in 192 pages. Nope. I do hope the next volumes will have less of this. I want Teru to find out who Daisy is, I want Kurosaki to be honest and I want several other things.

I will probably read the rest of this manga soon, since (even with the over-the-top stuff) it is a good manga with romance and comedy. Just what I need.

I remember really enjoying this series, but I don't think I ever finished it and I am not sure where I left off...

I need to reread it and finish it.

Awwww, Dengeki Daisy... it warms my heart just to think about this manga. I'm quite serious!

I love Daisy's character and his not-so hidden identity, it is so obvious from the very beginning who is actually is. Then again, Mangaka, Kyousuke Motomi never really wanted to hide his identity from us xD

Interesting developments and concepts. It already sets itself apart from many other shoujo manga. I am however a bit concerned about the violence and sexuality in the story.

Surprisingly sweet, and very true to real teenagers (especially Daisy!). I'd like to read the whole series.

Semi confused with this but it still seems cute. I'm glad I grabbed the first three from the library so I can keep reading!
