So does the manga ever go into Hina`s past?

while its true they only show just a little bit of her past without going into much detail, I'd say it's worth reading either way. since hinamatsuri is the funniest manga I ever read. Not reading it for a small reason like that would be a shame as you'd be missing out on everything else it has to offer

@YotsubaEnjoyer

Read what's written before posting, he said he is considering buying it, not just reading it, there is a difference.

I say Hinamatsuri is worth reading but it's not good enough for buying.

@JoeChip Exactly, I could just go ahead and pirate it like most people, but I stopped doing that personally.. I notice when I actually own the manga, its a totally different experience than just binging it on some piracy site (ex: I take my time reading it, and I tend to retain the story better and value it more with physical books). Anyways.. you said it wasn't worth owning but ultimately I decided to buy it, I did enjoy the anime and lots of replies/reviews etc etc that I read say that the manga version is even better.. hopefully its true otherwise I just spent 300$ for nothing lol

So update, I did end up buying it, and just finished reading it. I am so glad I asked for a second opinion, the anime skipped alot of stuff, and the manga does go into her backstory and Hina definitely changes... so yeah all those ppl saying otherwise were absolutely lying. I do see myself re-reading this manga in a few years, and even if I dont, I do think it was worth the purchase.

One small complaint is that some chapters felt out of order, for example in one chapter character X gets mad at character Y, but then few chapters later they are in a meeting acting like everything is cool, but then few chapters later they go back to remembering they are mad at each other?

And then, the manga just kinda ends? But its not a big deal, the manga was fun enough.

The car chase in the last volume is probably my favorite scene lol would love to see that animated someday.
