zefuri's manga / #sweet love(2)

A Zuma's character isn't that bad y'all I love him

This took me a while to pick it up again, but here I am:) I discovered this through Pinterest, which immediately interested me because of Suiren's visuals. During my first read, it didn't really spark to me, but as I reread this again, I realized that I almost fumbled a good manga. A quiet pair isn't seen much, in fact, this is my first time reading two awkward individuals falling inlove with each other. It's cute how Kawasumi and Suiren's relationship progressed, despite their tense relationship with the opposite gender. At first, it reminded me of a cutesy crush relationship where Suiren's constantly gets teased by her friends, helping her get close to Kawasumi, and Kawasumi who's secretly flustered towards Suiren. But then as I go deeper into chapters, i realized that what makes this story intriguing and unique, is that it describes real high school love. Not the shoujo cliches, or part those loud charcters.. Just two introverts in a high school love that I wanted to experience too. Suiren's glances towards the hallways, school grounds, etc..just to spot him has me on chokehold. That is the realistic pining and yearning someone could ever have for someone. It's so adorable and precious She really likes him from afar, ohhhhh I don't normally like Girls falling first but damn, this changed me. ------ Seeing their relationship progress to strangers to friends to lovers is definitely awesome. Their relationship definitely wasn't easy, as shown that they face some difficulties, they're only young and new to love, but the determination from the both of them to stay together forever is what carries on through their tough times, I really like that. Overall a nice manga, definitely recommend this (Im curious to see a timeline where Atohira and Suiren ended up together)
