Synopsis

Maki Maehara is always on his own at school. He has no friends or hobbies others share, and he doesn't expect the upcoming academic year to be any different, even surrounded by new faces. And six months later, it seems like he was right—until he runs into his popular classmate Umi Asanagi at a video store! Always at the center of attention and called the "second prettiest in class" by the boys, Asanagi's from a totally different world. But it turns out the two have more overlapping interests than just the B-grade movies they came to check out...and Asanagi asks Maehara to be her friend!

Preliminary (32/? eps)
Just when you think this series is a classic rom-com that might lose its spark once the romance peaks, it takes a sudden, sharp turn into the protagonist's confrontation with their parents' divorce. It portrays a child facing these traumas with such grounded realism that it makes you feel as if you’ve lived through it yourself, all while staying true to the core concept.

It had me sobbing for several chapters. It broke my heart into pieces, only to put them back together and leave it even stronger than before. Please give this manga a chance; 32 chapters are all you need to experience exactly what ...

I love it. It's sublime. Probably my second favourite romance manga series of all time (word-play with the title, get it? I'm serious though). It's your classic extrovert-introvert plot, yet it's so well written. There's depth to the characters, they're not just empty personalities that just love each other. The relationship could be said to be a slow burn, and I love it. Needless to say, both MC's feel awfully cute. I'm kicking my feet constantly, as I always do with qualified romance series. I'd definitely recommend to give it a go.

Note: There's a huge downside to the series, being that the release schedule is ...

A romance where the girls have more balls than the guy does. Why is there no femdom tag??? No I’m ragebaitinf here… This is the series of when an extrovert steals an introvert… If you love a submissive guy trying to get dom girls this is for you mf.

I don’t like no balls romance stories. So cliche, so boring, where are the chp1 confessions and following through that confession romance stories at???? Is rentarou becoming a rare legend now??? So go ahead and mark this review as confusing and or funny because you love submissive little femboys that the mc here is and enjoy you ...
