izzieꨄ's manga / #school life(33)

this is both a shoujo + shounen ai manga ꨄ aoki and ida are my fav pairing by far, they are a breath of fresh air and there is so much fluff too.

the movie brought me to the manga (a must read) i remember watching this years ago and to this day it still breaks my heart, a beautiful story nonetheless.

i love this, the mc is not “stupid” or “clumsy” she is representative of normal women. the male lead is so sweet and kind-hearted, not toxic as they usually are.

the male lead is really funny and the mc is independent and strong. i vaguely remember watching the anime a while back and was obsessed with the manga afterwards, rereading it now: certainly not worth all the hype but was a decent read.

regardless of the uninformed criticism in the comment section, this manga is a gem! the male lead has a strict family which makes it hard for them to be “lovey-dovey” with each other but the whole concept of this story is so fun to indulge in.

another sun ☼ and moon ☾ dynamic. started as a fake dating trope and ended with a she fell first but he fell harder concept (imo) the anime did not do this manga justice whatsoever because there was a lot of character development on both sides.

i should have known this was an unrequited love, a very beautifully written masterpiece that i will never ever be reading again because i value my mental health.

did taichi and touma end up together because i am pretty sure that the last chapter was insinuating that (?) would have preferred more scenes of them as adults but either way this manga was a rollercoaster of emotions.

the chapters for this manga are set out in a weird format and are pretty short but despite that, so far this story is really cute and has so much fluff. they both have their own issues and each character is likeable.

read and completed this manga ages ago. (spoiler) so glad that haruhi ended up with tamaki in the end even though my opinion is pretty unpopular.
