I just finished the manga series and I have to agree that it started out really REALLY slow but then it got pretty good…I love the suspense about who Shia really was and why Misha was there in the first place. I have mixed feelings about the ending…personally I love happy endings. However, I think the whole point of the ending is to tell us that you really can’t have everything in life…you have to sacrifice in order to succeed. I just wonder if there’s gonna be like a second series involving the two main characters since the author said something about this being their stories for now.

ah Pita-Ten! It’s one of my favorite series. It starts out really slow… and I mean REALLY slow. The real story doesn’t really kick in until volume 6 or so… it’s worth giving a try though since I love the ending (although I guess it isn’t that great.)

The Pita Ten manga is great!
I read it before the anime and it is a lot deeper, darker and has a really good story going. The anime is nothing compared to it, the anime was not even half as awesome as the manga. So keep going, you wont be disappointed. Pita Ten is still one of my favourite manga to this day

@TehShaw: I just noticed that Adam Arnold did the translation, and he uses “okies” in Aoi House too! ARGH! That guy needs to stop with the “okies.”

@Mizumi: I figured it would. This must be one of Koge-Donbo’s first manga, because the art is totally inconsistent. However, Shia is consistently cute.

I finished Pita Ten quite a while ago, and luckily, the artwork dramatically improves throughout the series.

I chanced on this one but ended up…well, not disappointed but not nearly as satisfied as I wanted to be. I think you bringed up all the points I can think of.
I’ve, however, no real problem with the “okies” (I tend to use it myself but not having english as a primary language might make it easier to accept it…maybe.
But you’re right, some of the…cute-ish extensions of Misha’s sentences ends up really weird and/or childish.

I was also surprised by the fact that the manga was a bit dark here and there, the cover and description totally made me think otherwise.
