weLL I reaLLy Like the story of it...
I wiLL give some little info regarding the story...



Ayu Tateishi is a normal middle school student, until the fateful day when she finds the crying Nina Sakura outside the school, looking very dejected. Nina explains that she lost something very dear to her earlier during the day so, Ayu, being a kind girl, offers to help Nina find her lost item. The girls hunt for Nina's lost mini-computer, which is eventually found by Ayu. To repay Ayu for her kindness, Nina struggles to decide whether to let Ayu in on her 'big secret'. Nina is actually from the Magic Kingdom and is a magic-using witch. However, Ayu doesn't realize this immediately, being sort of clueless with computers and merely thinking that Nina is somewhat geeky (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek). Nina struggles with her secret overnight, and in the morning before school confides her secret in Ayu. Of course, Ayu doesn't believe her, since magic is the spice of fairy tales in the real world. The story continues as friendship between Ayu and Nina blossoms, romance between Ayu and Kaji grows, and Nina's magically-inclined friends visit from the Magic Kingdom, to the chagrin of all involved.
The anime is very different from the manga. The story starts after Ayu and Nina have met.It focuses on when they meet. In the anime, Nina came to Earth in search of the 5 "Holy Stones". If she collects all 5, she will qualify to marry the prince of the Magic Kingdom. Also, she has a magic school uniform that she puts on to use magic. In the end Nina collects all the stones but gives them to Maya, her childhood friend who also was a candidate for the princess, because she learned that the prince was truly in love with Maya.







weLL feeL free to post everything yOu know about the story of it :p or add some other info.regarding the story :D

I prefer the manga over the anime. The anime's story was cute and light, but when I saw the story of the manga it was pretty deep, and made me like the characters even more.

But the anime is still good. I particularly like the artwork, and the voice acting (Japanese) was pretty cute.

I love this anime! Ayu’ character is awesome, Sakura is so kawaiiii … And their relationships are described in very interesting story, Ayu got romance with Kaji, Sakura found herself to be in love with Tsujai (Kaji’s bestfriend) but her duty to collect all of the holy stones and become Prince’s bride make her ignored her true feeling. The happy ending of the story is so sweet !

I haven't watch the anime yet, but I already read the manga!!!
The story is funny with Ayu as the main chara. I like Ayu 'coz she's cooL although it's just her acting to attract Kaji.
And what I'm sure about is I like that manga!!! ^.^

Ultra Maniac was one of the worst, poorly written, and extremely annoying manga I have ever read. It was too short. The characters were extremely predictable. The story line was slow and not well thought out. The author actually said she lost interest while writing it and did not enjoy it much, so how does one expect the reader to like it? The first volume was cute but as it got to the end, it was like a very short version of all the overplayed Romance Manga. I'm not criticizing the anime because I have never seen it, but this is not something I would recommend.
