Reception section
editPlease consider adding the following quotations to a "Reception" section.
- "Alice the 101st has a fair number of things in its favour, from the strong musical execution to some fun characters, but it still lacks that real oomph factor needed to keep readers hooked." — Lissa Pattillo, Anime News Network
- "Alice the 101st charmed me with its enthusiastic characters and expressive, detailed art. For a book I had zero expectations for, I enjoyed it a lot." — Julie Opipari, Mania
- "None of this would be very convincing if manga-ka Chigusa Kawai had skimped on the musical research, but she avoids one of the most common traps of this genre by showing us that native talent alone isn’t a guarantee of artistic ability; practice and a solid grounding in the fundamentals play equally important roles in a musician’s development." – Katherine Dacey, The Manga Critic.
- "Alice the 101st is a cute and prettily drawn manga, created by Chigusa Kawai, the same mangaka behind the La Esperanca series. It feels like a mostly carefree read, though there are parts that get more dramatic and sad." — Danica Davidson, Graphic Novel Reporter

Why "Alice"?
editThe article should mention something about why the male protagonist is nicknamed "Alice" even as a university student. Is he genderqueer, or does he just differ from all his peers in not believing, or not caring, that playing the violin is somehow effeminate? NeonMerlin 23:41, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
