A review by meepelous
Love★Com, Vol. 2 by Aya Nakahara
3.0
So the "they only act like they don't like each other because they are uncomfortable admitting they like each-other" plot continues. Nakahara ups the tension a bit by first introducing an old girlfriend of Otani and then an old schoolmate of Risa's with a huge crush on her, which was honestly a real relief because oh my goodness is the gender policing and pressure to conform strong with this one. At least once her old schoolmate shows up we get to hear at least one person appreciate Risa for who she is and not wish she was shorter, more delicate, and/or more ladylike.
Unfortunately for myself, this sort of gender policing probably made the series that much more relatable to my own life. I assume that things will become a bit more accepting once they finally admit to liking each other, which I do believe happens before the end? Honestly, I have no idea. I decided to reread this series and by gosh that's what I'm going to do.
