I do, that's exactly how I felt with this one. It's like, if I could read Japanese life would be simpler, but alas, I can't so PPPPPLLLLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEEE translate!
Also, i did the same thing where I read the descriptions of a lot of manga's and then decided maybe not and put it on the backburner and now that I am literally out of things to read, I find myself going back to those stories and thinking, what the heck, why didn't I give this a chance in the first place. Give it a shot, it's a really interesting read that has great characters, art, and storyline. I hope you come to like it as much as I do.
