2/5 stars

I tried reading the manga based on a friend's recommendation. They had told me that it had less fan service than the actual anime. I tried to read it while ignoring the fan service, but I couldn't understand the plot and where it was heading. It did have fun moments, but I don't believe their worth reading through the whole manga for.
