Inubaka is not exactly ground-breaking, but there is nothing wrong with being a good example of teen appropriate manga. For me, and for a few of my friends, it is the first manga I have ever read. I picked it because it had dogs on the cover and I was absolutely overwhelmed by 200 books I knew nothing about! But, it has introduced me to a new genre and I am definitely becoming a fan. So...it did a good job for me! There seems to be a service every manga can provide.

Sakuragi-san does a good job of keeping the characters dynamic and entertaining, though the addition of Momoko has me just a little annoyed (not a triangle fan at all-- I get attached to pairings). I particularly enjoy the way in which Sakuragi-san approaches many sensitive and very plausible situations. She gets close to the line but never goes over. I could do without the panty shot 'tweeners, even though they do sort of serve to add that certain awareness of sexuality that seems to pervade everything in the young adult life... they don't detract from the stories, but they're a bit gratuitous. Overall, I think I'm quite hooked. I want April to get here already! :) I’ve really found myself attached to Inubaka, actually.

I think I'v been underestimating the appeal of successful entertainment. That observation is how I feel about Inubaka. I think I’v been underestimating the appeal of successful entertainment.

Just when I think it can't get sillier, it gets sillier; just when I think, ok, this is *too* silly, it has a touching moment. There's no doubt that it's fluff, but it's fluff that keeps inching higher on my looking-forward-to-the-next-volume list while other, better-illustrated and more ambitious are wearing out their welcome.
