Interesting submitted by takako on July 31, 2019, 4:26pm Interesting to learn Japanese history
ehhh submitted by xijin Hiraga on June 11, 2022, 5:33pm the story is interesting, and hard for the main character, having to move to Japan when she always lived in America. Though, there isn't very much adventure.
