It’s honestly fluff and easy to read, although I will say in the middle it was draggin on so I skipped a few chapters til the near end. I do wish we could see the kiss as I felt the ending was rushed enough.
Still it’s very adorable and highly recommend people who like fluff to read it..

I think it is cute, but I'll reread Komi or read Miss Nagatoro instead. This feels like it is for a much younger audience.

“I guess I have less presence than most people. I realized it when we took our class photo for the yearbook… and they edited me on because they thought I wasn’t there.”

The shirt with words that don’t make sense together was iconic. This manga was hilarious and I loved all of the funny faces, but I wish it had more of a plot because I can see it getting repetitive. 

I don’t think I’ll be continuing.

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!
