This is one of the best comic that drawn by Ben, a malaysian（chinese) who have drawn many love story comic on Comic King(漫画王) and gempak..
Besides, this also a best campus love-comedy that takes place in a faux-Venetian looking place that’s definitely not Malaysia before a sad,complicated love story base comic drawn by him, Fishes if i'm not mistaken... Since then, i start to pay attention to his works.....
According to the Synopsis of “Le.Gardenie”:
“Orange is a 15 year old boy who shares a wisecracking friendship with a perky young girl named Kiwi. When the new school term starts in spring, Orange finds himself instantly falling for the smart and attractive Apple. But when the bewitchingly beautiful Lemon shows up, Orange’s heart starts to pull him in both directions at the same time. And as Kiwi worries about what’s becoming of Orange, cracks begin to show in their friendship…”
These are the 3 girls, they are Lemon, Kiwi and Apple respectively
KIWI
This is Kiwi, a tom-boyish girl who likes to dress in guys’ clothes. She’s Orange’s osananajime (幼馴染/Chinese: 青梅竹马) - his childhood companion and playmate. Now, Kiwi and Orange are high school mates.
APPLE
Apple is the pretty tenkousei (転校生/transfer student) who took Orange’s seat in class. She blushes when Orange is around.

LEMON
…And this is the royal-looking blond-hair chick who has a crush on Orange. She’s pursued by other guys but she only has her eyes for Orange. She’s the tsundere (ツンデレ) character in the story. Third moé factor.
Although I have a limited grasp of the Malay language, it’s not difficult to know what’s going on in the manga. That’s the beauty of visual narratives.
Besides his award winning “Le.Gardenie”, I also made a clean sweep of the magazine racks of his other works.
ORANGE
And Orange is the shujinkou (主人公/protagonist) of “Le.Gardenie”. He’s a wuss who gets bullied by the a bunch of rich-kid seniors (who seem to take after the four guys in “Hana yori Dango” (花より男子). Kiwi would usually come to his rescue. But in one encounter, this royal-looking lond-hair chick intervened….
