Is the manga Gakuen Alice worth reading?

[MADISEN]

*I apologize in advance if I'm not making much sense, or if my spelling / grammar / ect.. is wrong.

I read only like.. I'm not sure how many, but only a few chapters.
I don't like tragedy. I mean I'm okay with other characters dying, even frequent side-characters. (Like in Tokyo Crazy Paradise where whats-his-face-father-figure died. (I loved him, just can't remember his dang name.) But I heard the bratty black haired kid dies. Which from what I seen he was one of the mains. (Main male/love prospect)
Is the heartbreak that goes along with the tragedy worth reading?

*I don't mind spoilers at all. In fact, I encourage you to spoil away.

If you do not like Tragedy, your going to hate this manga. THIS manga has so many good characters that die . *****SPOILER***** Natsume is going to die. Yes, the love interest is going to die, and pretty soon it seems due to his alice. BUT YES IT IS DEFINETLY WORTH IT. Oh my god this manga is ONE OF THE BEST! But it has some really dumb moments when they traveled through time or when she was locked in a dungeon ROFL. This is definetly NOT a waste of time.
