It was okay overall. I wasn't a big fan of the first to stories, but the 3rd and 4th were pretty cute. First story: Gosh. Mc is not only selfish, she's also a lier. Miki was wasted on her. I like it when the protagonist is not the typical cute girl and the ML is not the usual alpha male. Nice to see an effeminate guy not portrayed as gay for once. Second story: God. Girl, have some more self respect! You're too good for an asshole like that. This trope of "a guy acting cold and selfish because he's just emotionally scarred" is so stupid and being reused over and over has NOT made it any better. Third story: This one was cute. Both characters were funny and they were adorbs together. Fourth story: Aw, that was sweet. I'm a sucker for the cute, innocent type of guy.

Crappy read. Ch. 0: Boring. Ch. 1: Wait, what? You're telling me you'd rather have that good-for-nothing playboy senpai, than your devoted childhood friend?? (Well he turned out to be a rapist, so maybe you should just skip both guys...) I totally thought this story would be about her realizing her feelings for her childhood friend. I was fooled. O.o I didn't like any of the characters, though. So, I guess it didn't really matter who she ended up with. Ch. 2-4: So over-the-top...

It was a sweet story. I really liked how chiharu slowly made progression on changing and getting better at communicating with people. Sonoda helped him begin that journey, but Chiharu wasn't reliant on him and continued to grow even as they were apart. They were also able to resolve their issues without major conflicts or drama, and there were no annoying antagonists or romantic rivals to add unnecessary drama. Also enthusiastic consent and mutual sexual interest is always a plus! I hate it when the uke goes "no" but the seme just continues or goes "but I know you like it"...

I'm usually not a big fan of shoujo, but this one was just too cute. I love how the characters communicate with each other before misunderstandings get out of hand. There is no unnecessary drama and clichés are kept to a minimum. Also the two main characters are the cutest and their chemistry is amazing.
Since I was reincarnated as a heroine who lost the profession of brave childhood friendship, I changed jobs to a compounde
