From Shoujo Manga Maniac:Himeno Ruri is Vice President of the School Council at Seiou Academy! Recently, at a council meeting, a strange matter has come up: "P", the mysterious thief for hire. Who is he, and why does he only steal particular items? 3x5v58
Included in this manga is a oneshot called Baby It's You:
Because of her beauty and status as a school idol, Akami is somewhat forced to take part in a school play. Only problem Akami has is that, the role she's suppose to do is a ''male'' role and she isn't experienced in acting at ALL.
1 Volume (Complete)
I love the main story, but the oneshot was really too fake hahaha
I'm talking about the part where sensei confessed his feelings to the girl when she was in her costume, that was just unbelievably fake feeling haha it's just what guy would ever say it like that, yikes, only in the author's dreams hahaha
The main story, "PxP" is very cute and pretty funny. Both the male and female leads are likable characters and their relationship is adorable. The scene at the end of the second chapter was especially sweet and endearing 🙂 Even the side-characters are well-written and enjoyable to read.
"Baby, It's You" is a great one-shot and classic Wataru Yoshizumi. Great, adorable art... A sweet and romantic couple... There's a lot to like here. I don't have a particular soft spot for teacher/student romances... but this one was done so well that I think even those who dislike that dynamic would be okay with it here. It actually seems natural and the two make a good pair, even despite the age difference (which is shown not to be too great, anyhow).
Overall, this is a great shoujo volume. Don't miss it if you like high school romances, capers and hijinks or Wataru Yoshizumi's work. You won't be disappointed.

I love how the characters are drawn, especially the main character. She looks so confident and refined without looking conceited. It was so short but it had a really good ending which makes up a good manga. Since it is short I would definitely read it over and over again.
A nice light hearted story with none of the heart ache or anything that most Shoujo things end up being. Nice short and refreshing. The ending is just so cute...
I feel like a girl when I read these things... It's kinda embarressing.

Light and cute, with no dramas whatsoever, no love triangles; everything's nice and clear-cut. Everyone has likeable personalities, and the main couple are really cute together. The hint of mystery and the "phantom" thief plot adds a little spice to the otherwise plain backdrop, and it's a little bit of a shame we don't get to see her do more of it. I like the realism of it, too; she's doing it for the money, although she draws a line at small and relatively unvaluable items XD Nothing like the Kaitou Saint Tail "thief of justice" plot that we've seen a million times already.
If you're after something light and fun with a dab of romance, then this is for you. If you'd like more plot, more brainwork, then you'll have to search for something else. This is enjoyable, but completely forgettable brainfluff.
The oneshot, "Baby It's You", is cute as well, but it wasn't what I expected from reading the synopsis. Akami's idol status and the performance in the musical takes a backdrop to her growing romance with her teacher. Teacher/student relationships usually throw me off, but perhaps because this teacher is much younger and looks the part, it wasn't so bad. Akami is also fairly laid back and easygoing, without any shoujo dramatics. Cute.

This story is so cute I just love it, it's a pity that's not longer, I want more.
The artwork is beautiful, the characters have nice personalities, and although the plot is not very interesting is refreshing. I love it.

hmm its a lil too short..and its quite good too.
i like how the story unravels and its nt too cliche or too mushy either.
i love the "Prefessor" (_)
how the love-interests plays out is smooth too.
overall its a good read and very satisfying.
Hmm, if you want something light and simple for reading with decent art, this is for you. But if you want something more concrete and with a deeper plot, try something else. The plot here is nothing complex so it's more of a romance story with some hints of mystery.
