Solid, not remarkable, start to a fun little slice of life romance comedy. Basically Kubo has a crush on our main character, who's invisible to the world. So Invisible I even forgot his name. But these short chapters ranging from 10 pages to 19 basically have her usually tease him, or help him, and give a nice school crush feeling with humor that improved a lot by the end. The boobs chapter and the cutest chapter with the little brother were great. I'll check out more!

I bought this manga off of a comrade of mine and eh... it's weird! But also kind of intriguing in that way. It's just manga being manga (and I'm not a big fan of manga), but it's kind of funny. And I think Amanda Haley's English translation really adds to that, so I want to highlight her translation work too. Also, I want to know the story behind Shiraishi's Skirt Steak shirt...

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read a digital copy of this book in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own.

This manga was a very fluffy, cute, silly read about a kid named Junta Shiraishi who is practically invisible to others around him due to him being extremely unnoticeable. His classmate Nagisa Kubo never fails to notice him, however, and seems to take a keen interest in him. There isn't much to this story, but if you are looking for something light and cute then I'd recommend it.

I think this was super cute. I like the subtle art style and how delicate it is. This feels like a shojo wrapped inside a shonen casing. I recommend it if you are curious. I'm hoping to continue the series. The main characters are likeable, although I'm ready to learn more about them.

Shiraishi is invisible...no really, it's like no one can see him except Kubo. Follow along the journey of these two becoming friends, and maybe something more. Kubo pushes Shiraishi out of his comfort zone in a good way. It's almost like the more he hangs out with Kubo, the more people are able to see him.

I thought this was a cute little read. It is told through a series of short events that happen throughout the school year. This manga has a similar vibe to that of Sasaki and Miyano as far as storytelling goes. The story itself is a slow burn so if that's not your thing, be warned. It's all cute though. No real plot other than these two getting to know each other more. A nice easy read.
