This was...fine. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with it, but aside from the adorable artwork, nothing grabbed me. Shiraishi's gimmick was fun at first, but got old pretty quickly. And while Kubo has more depth than Shiraishi, her character got annoying after awhile. I get it, she teases him to hide her true feelings, but that doesn't make her a particularly engaging heroine in my opinion.
This was an okay start to the series, but didn't really grab my attention. Not sure if I want to continue or not. If you want a cutely drawn gag manga, give this a shot.

I don’t know, I suppose it was fine, but nothing to hold my attention.

What a cute first manga! I can't wait to see where this series goes. I love the meet cute with an invisible boy!
Thank you to NetGalley and VIZ Media for a free review copy!
I have read so many manga that start out just the way this one starts out. That being said, I enjoyed this one much more than others. There was no insta-love, love at first sight, making out after five seconds of knowing each other, ect. I really appreciate a manga that can take things slow. The two main characters are slowly getting to know each other throughout each volume and I'm really enjoying reading that. I also love all the gag involving Shiraishi not being able to open an automatic door. Best bit in the whole story. I can't wait to read the next volume!

Another manga cafe read! I am a sucker for a good slice-of-life story and this first volume just oozes charm and sweetness. I don't think I would rush out to read the next volume, but I would definitely read more of this series in my future visits to Haru Cafe. 😊
