YES! This is still a shoujo manga. And if a shoujo manga is not magic-inclined, it is romantic. Apparently, as what the plot states, it is a romance-shoujo manga. I find it a bit cliche, but not cliche.
I mean the idea of having "a relationship that shouldn't be discovered by anyone else" can be common-ish. The situation is kind of the same with the classic "Romeo and Juliet" by yours truly, William Shakespeare. BUT it's also unique in it's own ways like "orphaned girl and her brother, adopted by a teacher."
There are things that make Faster than a Kiss stand out. It's a must read for people who want to laugh and love [both at the same time]
