Failed Princesses Vol. 5

"Certainly Nanaki's use of the phrase "repay you with my body" (meaning her make up and shopping skills) is loaded, with Kanade giving it a sexual connotation in her mind, but right now that's less important than the validation the girls bring to each other: that they are worthwhile people no matter what anyone else says. That's a story worth following, no matter what your memories of high school are." --Rebecca Silverman, Anime News Network

"[Failed Princesses] is highly reminiscent of Milk Morinaga's schoolgirl Yuri works with enough original flavor to feel refreshing. If you enjoy titles like Girl Friends and Secret of the Princess, I highly recommend this manga." --The Holy Mother of Yuri

"Fans of school drama Yuri and Morinaga Milk will be rewarded by these characters who exceed their stereotypical origins." --Erica Friedman, Okazu
