nini's manga / #shoujo(23)

this made me want to read shoujo again >< it was pretty cliche but gawd i love it <3 i really like pairings like this idk im like soft delinquents hihi i love chihiro, shes not your typical shy, dumb, and weak MC. shes pretty straightforward but not aggressive, idk i didnt really find her attitude annoying not like other shoujos i've read :> i love how shes smart and she never gave up on kisaragi shes an understanding person i really love her personality as for kisaragi hes quite mean but not to the point that it pisses me off, like i get why he was doing those things and it was "for the sake" of chihiro bc he didnt want her to be involved with him :> i found him quite cute esp at the last panel of ch 8, theyre so freaking adorable i squealed >< overall the plot was cliche yet still very interesting and not cringey (i tend to cringe a lot at shoujo mangas but i never cringed while reading this ❣) it had a pretty light storyline and all in all fluffy in my opinion <3 im sad though bc i found it quite short :( i wished they showed more of their relationship and they never really introduced each other to their families but still i liked it this was an enjoyable read <3 i also feel inlove with the art style !! both kisaragi and chihiro look so pretty (usually i dont like how the FC looks like but i really found chihiro pretty ) great read

ok so imo this is one of the best shoujos i've read with a contract relationship trope, i really love erin and henry's dynamic !! theyre so so funny and they werent the cringey type of couple ^^ they are so adorable and we really got to see the development of their relationship tbh the ending felt rushed and incomplete for me bc why are we getting greg's past just now what was the purpose helpsnjsjd but anyway the overall story was very light and fun to read <3 theyre one of the couples that i really looked forward to reading every week so i didnt expect the abrupt ending D: i wish we could've seen more of erin and henry's relationship rather than making us feel bad for greg :< i mean im happy they explained the backstory but why was that the ending that could've been put in earlier chs but i still loved the story !! i really love the pacing of this story, it didnt feel fast nor slow as well (i think it took a year ?? in the story's timeline before they got tgt) <3 the couple are so funny and cute, they always bicker with each other i love it theyre both strict at work but clingy with each other at home :( sad hours ㅠㅠ there also werent that much drama but the thing im pissed abt is deborah i dont get her (°д°) like shes literally erin's best friend why does she keep on getting in between her and henry ಠಿ_ಠ like ik its bc she wants greg to be with erin but girl thats your friend's happiness and lovelife why tf would u meddle in it (๑•̀д•́๑) i almost forgot to mention that there were also some parts that were left under the rug, like abt erin's past trauma with her parents, as well as henry's thats why i really think this felt rushed bc those werent addressed :< anyway enough of my rant so yea overall, really liked the story !! its a really good romcom story, wish the ending could've been longer and better but it still was a great read also the art looks stunning all the characters look stunning
