 This was exactly what I needed right now. I’ve been trying to get into something with no luck it feels lately. I’ve been liking things but not enjoying them, and reading this, I finally enjoyed something recently.

This is a pretty basic plot but we follow this girl named Ninako and her friends admire this boy Ren from afar. Then one day on a subway the two meet and Ninako falls for him pretty quickly.

This is one of those few instances that I actually rooted for the main character to be with Ren over her friend Daiki. Ren is really sweet and kind. I’m excited to see these two grow closer and fall for each other. This story isn’t anything extraordinary plot-wise, but I really needed this right now and I enjoyed it a lot. I definitely would recommend it!
