what do you think of ichigo 100%

Warning! If you have not read this manga, please refrain from reading this post. May contain spoilers which I really don't want to spoil for possible readers to have their own appreciation and/or disappointments with the manga __________ I share the same sentiments that you have for the conclusion for this series, planswalker. Though it was a good long series for me, it took me a long while (and still trying) to accept how things have ended up as the mangaka intended and not the usual conclusions that I have so far could anticipate in most of the shounen mangas that I have read. Though the mangaka shared her thoughts on why she decided to conclude it in an unexpected way, I still find it difficult since I wasn't in favor on the girl that Manaka chose. My own biase about the matter though could also be explained on how I've grown accustomed on other shounen mangas that have pairings that were predictable and even though that those pairings were expected, I still kept on reading them due to the interest on how they would end up together. With Ichigo 100%, it totally caught me off guard and got me hit severely. I was like stacking my anticipation for the ending that I was expecting yet, it all fell down on me when the very last piece didn't stack properly. Wishing that Manaka and Aya didn't have that romantic misunderstanding, that Manaka wasn't so indecisive on such matters while Aya didn't hesitate and kept all her feelings when it wasn't yet too late. Even though that I have also felt this way for other characters in other mangas with similar genres, the ending just took me by surprise since the other mangas would be concluded with the expected pairings yet, this one simply didn't.
