kunii~<3's manga / #school life(20)

omg I fell in love with this right away, everyone is so lovable and the main two are sooo cute!

My first shoujo manga, so glad I picked up the first volume in the library that day

I didn't expect to like this so much, but between the adorable and expressive art, the sweet and interesting storyline that uses cliches in a way that isn't annoying, and the admirable character growth, I was hooked! I admit I was iffy because I remembered not liking Moe Kare when I was younger, but it's very sweet, though admittedly dramatic and sugary at points. I wonder if I should reread moe kare lol!

Omg the rlly special thing about this manga is the relationships and the comedy. I was smiling ever chapter and I really love how protective Kumiko is of her class and how their relationship grows. I admit I wasn't really into Kumiko and Shin's relationship, but it's not the focus and only really becomes romantic in like the last chapter. I DID really like all the other different relationships, like Kuma and Shin's friendship, the siblings relationship between Tetsu, Minoru and Kumiko, and just the way everyone acts with each other in general. Very funny and sweet! (Kuma is so cute and a vry kind boy, lowkey my fav)

Soo cutee, seems cliché at first but the main couple actually have character and are really sweet together. It's very heartwarming with rlly nice relationships, a cozy and turn your brain off sort of read. I also like how you can clearly see the author's art improve lol, almost in a way that makes the characters look like they're growing up lolll

FAVOURITE

Omgg this is so sweet First of all God bless thy angels that are Saori and Maru Also Tsubaki's pixie cut? Acc ADORABLE my heart rlly squeezed she's sooo cute, joined the pixie cut club with Saori and Maru fr lol Tsubaki and Mamoru are sooo so cute together, and they're relationship is so nice, I was falling in love with tsubaki in the beginning I could see exactly why she likes him Her growth is great too, she's a genuinely amazingly kind person with a lot of integrity, Noa is so right (love Noa too she's funny and keeps things interesting)

Annoying as hell, hattori and taketu should just date and leave Mao to do whatever she wants or smthing The prequel was rlly interesting and the first few chapters were nice, which is unfortunate because it made me care about the characters which made me rlly Irritated when the story turned bullshit. these two literally never talk to each other and have no proper moments at all that aren't some form of them making up after a fight. Hattori mentions feeling like he loves Mao way more than she loves him and, yeah, he's RIGHT, it just seems like she's going along for the ride and forces herself to do everything he likes Also, not her getting overly jealous of that girl Rika when?? There was only rumours of her and Hattori dating, and they werent even true?? Insecurity is completely real and valid, but i cant feel empathy or even sympathy because her reactions are just ridiculous, and very hypocritical considering she actively interacts with fuse and even scolds hattori on behalf of Fuse, who has literally kissed her, hugged her, confessed his love to her multiple times, joined their date, and does all this crap in front of hattori. Bro at first i was like some of this shit is prob comeuppance for hattori being a brat in elementary, but now i just feel rlly bad for him. He's always trying really hard and mao doesnt at all, it's actually painful to read. I'm glad it seems like they've separated in the latest chapter and I won't read past it because I choose to take that as the ending, Mao doesn't seem like she needs or even wants a relationship, and hattori needs something other than Mao to care abt

they're both assholes lmao, blondie is manipulative and cunning while black-hair is careless and can't establish boundaries. they deserve each other ig, not really a romance, more like watching a meteor fall and waiting for it to inevitably hit the ground, which was kinda fun

I immediately approve of the male lead, he drowns his pancakes in maple syrup as you should Yeah they're each cute and together they're both cute, it's a fun read. The angst was nice and it lowkey felt deserved on both sides, yknow? They both hurt each other, so anytime either of them were hurting I was like nice, deserved, but also this is so sad. When they finna got together I was vry glad and not annoyed at one of them for getting off easy, it just felt like they were finally looking at each other properly. I also really love subaru's costars, their friendship is so fun
