Four handsome, 15-year-old friends get free rent in a gorgeous mansion - if they can transform the owner's niece into a proper young lady. How hard can it be? Enter Sunako Nakaharo, the agoraphobic, frizzy-haired, fashion-illiterate recluse who has a tendency to break into explosive nose-bleeds whenever she sees anyone attractive.

Anime UK News - Ian Wolf
Feb 02, 2023When you compare The Wallflower to other similar series such as Ouran High School Host Club, which debuted two years later and brilliantly parodied the harem genre, you can see how things have changed. Ouran is for me one of the best comedy manga series made. The Wallflower was admittedly a big deal in its day, with anime and live-action adaptations, and the manga having run longer than Ouran, but it just doesnt feel as good, and the series these days seems forgotten. While this edition does come with some nice extras like useful translator notes and an (untranslated) preview of the second volume, I doubt this is a manga I will be returning to. Read Full Review
