Kare Kano volume 1 was excellent and funny too. I was expecting it to be more shojo-ish but this is something that can appeal to both guys and girls. It's rated 13+ due to some mild language but it should be fine for most kids.
Kare Kano: His and Her Circumstances, Vol. 1
By Masami Tsuda, Masami Tsuda
Yukino Miyazawa is the perfect model student. Pretty, kind, good at sports, always at the top of her class. But she's not all she seems. It's all an act of deception; she is really the self-confessed "queen of vanity," and her only goal in life is winning the praise and admiration of everyone around her. When she enters high school, she finally meets her match: Soichiro Arima, a handsome, athletic, popular, and very intelligent young boy. Ever since he stole the top seat in the class from her, Yukino has hated him, and has been plotting on how to take back her former place as the object of all other students' admiration. What she wasn't expecting, however, was that Soichiro, the very boy she hated, would confess his love for her. She also didn't expect that he would find out about her deception - and use it to blackmail her! Together, they discover that they have more in common than they knew, and they promise each other that they'll stop pretending to be perfect, and just be their true selves.

This manga is for anyone who dwells in the romance and shoujo genre! I love it so much! Since I have an account now on MyAnimeList-for anyone who's interested- I have learned (not really, more like reviewed) to find the positive and negative aspects of any anime or manga and make a review out of it! Well, I'm here to say that this series is complete with original drama and characters, has the right amount of teenage and the right amount of angst and the right amount of teenage angst- and all in all, it is AMAZING up to the point where I can say that I have just rediscovered what true love is. That's right, for any manga/graphic novel fan out there, even if you don't necessarily like this genre, you will surely enjoy the intricate plot and memorable characters that this series upholds. Hats off to Kare Kano, or in English as it is called: His and Her Circumstances.
