About book Oresama Teacher , Vol. 1 (2011)

At first glance, Oresama Teacher seems obvious, unoriginal, and a typical shoujo, but by the end there is hope that the series will prove otherwise. Mafuyu starts her new life as a normal girl, only to find her true delinquent nature is not so easily dismissed. While she is far from rude, she finds school life difficult, and is prone to defending those she finds getting beaten up by fighting back. At the moment her personality is a little flimsy, and will need time to solidify into a truly likeable character. The author sometimes dashes from panel to panel, giving a rushed feel to both the story and the humour. When she gets the timing right though, it does produce genuine laughter. While there are some features that need to be improved upon, which they more than likely will, the first volume shows great promise. I feel so conflicted about this series already! While I was laughing out loud during some parts, others made me want to drop it entirely. It's a mess of good things and awkward things and... I just can't help but worry. I give it a three for now, even though a 2 is tempting. Mafuyu, our heroine, is capital-H Hilarious. I loved her right from the start. The immediate counterpart, however--our "teacher"--turned me off completely. I do NOT like this guy, and I get angry at Mafuyu for even considering liking him. Even after she remembers how big of a douche bag he was, and realizing that he's still very much a douche bag, she still gets all shoujo-rom-com around him. Please, girl, cut it out. There are no glimmers of hope, at least not in this volume. I guess girls who like the "ultimate bad-boy" may find him appealing, but I found him to be a Jerk. Now, her friend Nayasaka, him I like. Even though they're not entirely friends yet, they work so well as a duo and the comedy abounds. I hope he'll be a good contrast to crappy-teacher-dude.

3.5 starsLove Mafuyu, as she tries to overcome her delinquent impulses and make friends in her new school. Uncertain about Takaomi, her teacher and childhood crush/tormenter. He seems to alternate between protector and bully as a general state of being. Teacher-student romances seriously squick me out, but it almost seems more like a sibling thing with these two? Maybe? I can't really tell, so future volumes may prompt me to change my rating later. The other primary character is Hayasaki, who is baffled when Mafuyu claims him as her first friend. Really enjoying the zany, surprising ride. Mafuyu wearing a bunny mask to rescue Hayasaki may be my favorite scene, but Takaomi ending the volume with "now the game begins" has me excited to read more.

Some awkward moments here and there but it did get interesting. Wonder what will happen next.
