I love it! I love the main characters! It's such an original story. Every episode, I always wish that they'd end up together. There's this hope in my heart that they'd see each other in real life, alteast. I was a little dissappointed in the ending as it looked so cliche', when they have been battling cliche' the entire story.
Two endings would have made me very happy:
1. A girl in college reads the comic book under a tree. She sighs, tells herself that this book is such garbage, because the author doesnt have originality and goes for cliches. Then she sees boy shoes in front of her shoes. Slowly looking up, she sees a boy, who abruptly gets the book in her hands, signs it, and goes. She is shocked, gets up, and chases the boy. Reveals(drum roll!) he(Haru character) is the author of SECRET. He smiles, and explains to her(Dan Oh) why that is made like how it is in real life.
2. The boy(Haru character) walks in a school hallway. He bumps into a girl and the girl drops her comic book(which is Secret). He chases her, grabs her in the arm. She turns ever so slowly(the excitement!), and we see the Dan Oh character smiling. She gets the comic, drops more of her sketches(of the comic!) on the floor. They pick up the sketches and manuscript(of course!) And smile at each other.
That wouldve been so beautiful! An ending within a beginning! All in all a great story. I will never forget it. Thank you to the makers.
