Summary:
W Juliet is about the friendship between a 16 year-old tomboy named Ito Miura, and Makoto Amano, a mysterious ladylike transfer student that turns out to be a boy. The contrasts between their personalities, and their common dream ("To be an actor!") make them almost instant friends.

so there's a 2? o_o didn't read that one yet XXDD will go read it now

*btw, i can't really call the heroine a girl, more guylish than the male lead is o_o though that's why i like it i guess*

well that's true though we still lack a jp translator XXDD will need to find one >.< (though i want to continue reading it -sigh- *finding cn version of w-juliet)

Ooh I read this before I loved it. Well... I love gender benders in general~ >w<

I never actually finished reading it. I got my sister to read it and she fell in love with the series. She got so enthusiastic about it that she turned me off from the series. That was like 6-7 years ago and I'm still trying to finish the series. I think I'll be forever stuck on volume 10 for the rest of my life. I kind of want to read W- Juliet II but I feel I have to finish up the first series. lol.

Another Gaylish Manga. Hahaha. Joking. Well, a girl that turns out to be a boy. ~_~ only a miracle can do that.

I've read the whole series, plus the sequel
I really love Emura's art, and it's great how they go through changes from beginning to end, especially love Ito when she looks more like a girl ^^

I think this was okay. But frankly I wished she had a little more talent. Don't we all wish our main characters to be good at something?

Kitteh: You're right. Maybe I was carrying expectations from Skip Beat that Ito should also have some genius acting talent, so I was really disappointed that it wasn't the case. Had she failed the auditions, I would have cried out in frustration. But I enjoyed it nevertheless!

Gotta love this manga. I liked it so much actually that I bought it as soon as it was licensed. I thought it was pretty neat how the rather manly heroine charmed the good-looking cross-dressing male. :X It fits into the 'typical' shoujo cross-dress category, but yet the drama with charm and romance in it make it a nice mixture.

I loved W Juliet. Did you know they came out with a follow up series? But I kind of dug the whole martial arts/ damsel in distress thing. Plus the humorous situations were top notch.

Yeah. The 'follow-up' is called W-Juliet II. That one was rather short though (I think 2 volumes) compared to the original series (which was 14 volumes).

the stoy seems interesting maybe i will read it!
