This first volume was felt too short. I didn't feel there was chemistry between the main characters, but it gets better towards the end, though I feel like I need to spend more time with the characters to know if I like them or not. What leaves me on the fence is how pushy Sakura can be and how hesitant Hanasaki is. It doesn't seem healthy and leaves me wondering if they are a good fit together. While reading the relationship felt there was pressure to make it work and a little forced.
I think I will need to read the next few volumes to see if I would invest in the series.
Thank you Netgalley for providing me an eARC for an honest review.

I was kind of surprised how fast Hanasaki accepted Sakura, since the whole blurb seems to be about how he pursues her and she rejects him. But it was really cute so I'm not mad about it

This adorable shoujo was one of the cutest romances I've read all year. After breaking up with her ex for cheating on her, Sawa is suddenly confessed to by her classmate Sakura. He's really not her type at all, but she finds herself falling for him hard and fast.
Sawa and Sakura are both adorably shy, and I loved seeing their relationship grow! If you're interested in a romance in a high school setting, I cannot recommend this enough. It was just super cute, I loved how forward Sakura was while still having his cute moments, and seeing Sawa struggle with learning to accept affection based on her bad experiences was really nice to see.

Thank you Netgalley for the eARC! This manga was not really what I was expecting, but it was still a decent read. I thought Sakura would spend a lot of time trying to win Hanasaki's heart, but they end up dating hella quickly. I thought it would take at least a couple volumes 😅 They are an interesting match though, and I like how straightforward Sakura is with his feelings. It's also nice to see Hanasaki learn what it's like to be genuinely cared about, compared to what she went through with her ex. I can't wait to see how her relationship with Sakura progresses!

This manga follows the main character Sawa, who has just broken up with her boyfriend because she found out that he was seeing another girl, Then a classmate, Sakura, confesses feelings for her - but she’s never been interested in him and is just getting out of her previous relationship. Sakura really likes her, and is determined to keep confessing his feelings.
This was a pretty cute manga - Sakura really likes Sawa, and both of them are pretty awkward about their feelings. I liked the character designs, and the artwork was pretty and cute! With a storyline like this, I think it’s easy to fall into the male love interest being creepy or overbearing, but I didn’t think it was too bad in this one - he was very honest and expressive in his emotions and just really liked Sawa and complimenting her.
This was a very quick read, and I enjoyed how easy it was to read but I wish it had delved into things a little bit more for a first volume. I am interested to see where this story goes in the future!

OMG! I can’t! They are so cute! Sakura is such a great character, he is so open with his feelings and wants Hanzaki to know how much he cares about her, but he never goes over the line.
Hanzaki is so cute trying to keep up with Sakura’s constant confessions.
The artwork was gorgeous! All of the characters looked amazing! This was adorable and I really can’t wait for more!
