I found this story at Borders, about two years ago during Christmas break. I ended up buying the first volume, on a whim. And, I recently just finished the entire series. But, I felt a little disappointed. Anyway, here's my thoughts on Instant Teen.
For one, the plot was pretty good, for the most part. The artwork was okay. I have definitely seen better. Then, I kinda liked the compare and contrasting both of the life between a child and an adult.
However, I didn't like how harsh everyone was to young Natsumi. I mean, she was in third grade. Her best friend Asuma and the doctor (as they both knew her secret of changing ages) they expected a lot of maturity from her. The doctor didn't yell at her best friend when he was acting somewhat childish. I found that pretty unfair.
Anyway, I give this a two out of five.
I felt that way about the manga too: I read the first volume on a whim and when I finished the series I felt disappointed. I expected too much from it so it's partially my fault for my disappointment. :P
