How I Met My Soulmate, Vol. 1 by Anashin

4.0

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.
