One Pound Gospel is good story but it isn't Takahashi's best. As I mentioned before, it is her transitionary period. I am really looking forward to seeing where she goes with the story. Keep in mind that this was only for volumes one and two! I have read/own almost all of Ranma and Maison Ikkoku. One Pound Gospel is good story but it isn’t Takahashi’s best.

I really loved volume 1 and haven't read volume 2 yet - and I've only read one volume of Ranma and haven't read Maison Ikkoku... But I think I read One Pound Gospel after reading some really bad manga and learning that Takahashi studied under Tezuka. I was really impressed with her panel-to-panel storytelling ability, and her talent at getting across the characters' emotions. Plus I was struggling to lose my last two pounds, so I could identify with the ramen-loving protagonist... I'd give it an A- since it's a title I could easily recommend to almost anyone.
