Aozora Yell review
Ono has a dream of playing the trumpet in high school. Daisuke has a dream of playing baseball at Koushien. Ono gets a crush on Daisuke, but they decide to give their all to their dreams over love. Thus Aozora Yell is another will-they/won't-they romance with a sports /after school club theme.
I've read other manga by Kazune Kawahara such as High School Debut and Ore Monogatari. Her strength seems to be in writing romances that have pretty ordinary relationship problems rather than tons of drama, and very likeable characters. Aozora Yell, I feel like, does not really play to her strengths. It's essentially a sports / club manga with a romance B plot, but it feels rather bland, lacking the level of excitement you get from other, better examples of the genre. For one thing, their goals are to participate in national level competition, but then it mostly focuses on the mundane-ness of regular practice, rather than the tenseness of competition, or setting up interesting rivals, or any of the other genre tropes that are tropes because they work well. Another weakness is the side characters, which don't feel that well fleshed out to me. If you want manga like this, I'd recommend Chihayafuru, Kono Oto Tomare, and anything by Mitsuru Adachi. Especially Cross Game. That all said, Aozora Yell isn't bad. It's just that there's much better out there. |
Aozora Yell review
I read this just yesterday. It was the first time a manga has compelled me so much to write a review about it.
The thing I love about Aozora Yell is that the characters don't follow the stereotypes of a shoujo manga. The lead is earnest and determined, but frets about things and breaks down like a normal human being. She's unlike a protagonist whose head is filled with romance, nor is she a superhuman with the best grades or the most talent. She's an absolute novice at what she wants to do, and yet she doesn't give up, with the encouragement of Yamada, the male protagonist. What I like about this manga is that the story is believable. It's realistic, it's simple and that's exactly why it's fresh. It tells the story of a student's passion in her club activities, and how one strives to do her very best despite setbacks. Sure, it indeed sounds like any other manga, but there's just simply something special about this that's hard to describe. There aren't any clear antagonists, and the side characters all have a life of their own as well. They aren't detestable, but they get angry, they make errors just like any other normal human being. And that in itself contributes to the story. Though there are some cliched themes, but I feel that they didn't drag the story down, but gave life to it. What sets this apart from a typical shoujo manga, apart from its realistic characters, is the ''life'' in it. Aptly titled Aozora Yell, when I read this manga, I felt like I could really see the sky. If a sky were to be given a manga, this would be it. A breath of fresh air. |
