I had a feeling I would like this and it did not disappoint. The FMC is pretty relatable, I saw myself a lot in her. She's not only relatable but also really sweet and endearing. When you see a character like her, I mean, how could you NOT like her? I love the MMC too. It's refreshing to see a guy character call up a girl to apologize for making a bad first impression (that came off as a little rude and was unfair to her) and to genuinely befriend her without any ulterior motives or lewd thoughts. Iori is genuinely a great character who I already adore!! I really like the relationship blooming between Yuuki and Iori. Although it isn't romantic (yet), I like seeing their friendship for now. Besides, I don't like when things move too quick in romance anyways! This is a good pacing to see them get closer and get to know each other as friends first. He genuinely cares about her so much, truly just wants the best of her, looks out for her safety, pays attention to her emotions... all u rlly want in a guy tbh...

Tbh, I'm not rlly into love triangles... but I'm just rooting for Iori to win until the end. Seno is a nice guy too but TEAM IORI!!!! Anyways, this was a nice first volume to a realistic college romance manga series :) WITH NO TOXIC CHARACTERS! Def gonna continue reading this to see Iori & Yuuki's relationship develop further.

This is such a cute, wholesome, and somewhat timely romance manga. Although the characters aren't that developed first or like there's not much of a depth into them so far, I still did enjoy it.

I also wasn't expecting a love triangle, but it was a lovely one. This is the first time I did enjoy a love triangle in a story and is really hyped for the 2nd volume.

Guys, I already know I'm going to be obsessed. This manga started out *strong*. Gosh, it's so cute and already had multiple blushy, kick you feet happy moments. I am liking the plot so far. A cute but lonely girl looking for a soulmate similar to her first childhood crush, gets set up by a guy she just met. Honestly, the story is a classic and I love it.

This was unexpectedly great! This Shoujo manga is a romance lover's dream, and I just ate it all up.

This story follows Yuuki, a 20-year-old college sophomore who hopes to one day find her soulmate and ends up finding herself in the middle of a love triangle!

I really love how the different characters motivations and personalities are explored, and there are so many things I can't wait to find out about in the next volume!

This is going to be a fun one to see who's team everyone is on *ahem team Lori* and this would be a great starter manga for romance lovers who have never read manga before and want to try it out.

I will absolutely be reading the rest of this series and checking out Anashin's other series which is a basketball romance!

*Thank you to Netgalley and Kodansha Comics for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.*
