Moritaka Mashiro, a junior high school student, content to live out a relatively normal life as any other does, is persuaded by his classmate, Akito Takagi, to become an aspiring mangaka when the latter realizes his natural talent as an artist. However, Moritaka is reluctant to pursue his dream as his uncle, once a mangaka with his own serializations, died from overwork trying to regain his lost status. With Akito's help, Takagi gets another classmate and his school crush, Azuki Miho, who is an aspiring voice actress, to voice in the anime adaptation of their future manga once it is completed. However, Mashiro also proposes to Azuki, who surprisingly accepts only on the condition she will marry him when both of them have achieved their dreams. With a goal set before him, Mashiro begins a long and struggling path to become a famous mangaka.
This anime is really original, two school kids decide to become mangakas and one dreams of marrying the girl he loves after he becomes successful. A simple concept, but it's so well- developed. It can move at a slow pace, but the developments towards the end are nice and quick. The animation is great, I love the references to other anime/ mangas and there are some really cute and funny moments between the characters. Overall I'd say it's worth watching, but if the story is too slow on the anime, read the manga.
