Koyuki is 16 while her husband, Shin is 20 years older than her. They're newlywed and this is their story navigating their life in the new phase.
Honestly, the age gap cannot be more revolting than this but taking the historical setting, it makes sense. It's a cute story; romance with a pinch of fantasy. The ending was kind of abrupt but everything tied up nicely.

very cute and short read :)
Me ha parecido un manga tan tierno... Me ha hecho reír en varias ocasiones y el carácter mimoso de ella junto con la inocencia de ambos personajes en ciertos asuntos es una exquisitez. No le pongo las 5 estrellas porque me ha sabido a poco y tengo la esperanza de que se escriba algo más sobre ellos en un futuro.
It’s cute and okay for a one-shot manga. I think my younger self would enjoyed it more. I wished the authors revealed the man’s face behind the mask at least. Overall it’s 3-stars.

This is the type of book that is best reviewed with gifs...which I don't have...but that little snippet of Despicable Me with the little girl hugging the plush unicorn and shouting, "It's so FLUFFY!" That's the gif I'd use for this. SO ADORABLE. Not much plot, BUT ADORABLE.
4/5 Stars: ‘NE NE NE’ by Shizuku Totono and Daisuke Hagiwara.
→ Age Range: Young Adult.
→ Genre: Manga, Historical Romance.
→ Trigger Warnings: -
In-depth Rating:
→ Plot: ★★★
→ Character Development: ★★★★
→ Setting: ★★★★
→ Entertainment Level: ★★★★★

General Comments: Age-gap romance; the impact is lessened by Historical Context. Not clearly stated, but based solely on background and conversational details, it is early 18th Century Japan; when arranged marriages were often fuelled by political or financial gain. The translation reads smoothly; the simple and sweet art adds to the light-hearted nature of the plot.
Favourite Quote: ‘Now I have you.’
