Romeo x Juliet just wasn't for me, but it could be for you, if you like the extremely-cheesy romance shoujo types in mangas. I did find Romeo and Juliet's fate a bit courageous and sweet, but nope, it didn't give me feels. I just didn't feel attached to the characters. Once I reached the ending of Volume 2, I couldn't feel a thing. In fact, it's too fast-paced that I couldn't digest each scene one by one and I was thrown tons of scenes all at once to the point that I'm left a bit confused.

I also don't know if it's just me or it's just because I'm reading too fast, but the story is quite fast-paced. Though I could see its comparison to the orignal Romeo and Juliet, I just wasn't a fan of the insta-love, and I couldn't root for Romeo and Juliet's romance.

I dived into this book expecting that I would love it or at least like it, but unfortunately this manga isn't for me. 42-56, online: (5 April 2011).This is a review for both volumes 1 and 2. “Inter-Semiotic Translation: Shakespeare on Screen” in Journal of Specialised Translation, Iss.5/ January 2006, pp. The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare and Popular Culture.
