Feel-good story of healing, but a few caveats...

This review contains spoilers. There is more to Yoh's "hatred" of men than meets the eye, and it has to do with a traumatic incident in her past. First, about the good parts: Yoh is a sympathetic protagonist who takes the initiative to get over her "hatred" (actually, genuine phobia) of men by asking out a handsome man she found at a guitar shop. Her naivete and stubbornness are realistic for a high school girl and they make you want to root for her as she gradually starts to open up and reembrace her passion for the guitar. The main lead Tono-san helps her along in this healing process through his patience and understanding. Now the caveats: this depicts an age-gap relationship between a working adult and a highschooler - I feel my discomfort would be less if he was made younger. I'm also not a fan of the romance subplot with the brother, even if they are not actual siblings, which overly complicated their dynamics. Lastly, it feels like a copout that she wasn't "actually" assaulted and that it was only a failed attempt. Feels like they stopped short to exploit the trauma aspect but still keep Yoh pure. Judged by its merits, it's still an enjoyable read though overall.

Weird. I gotta stop reading these age gap stories.

This review contains spoilers. I gotta stop reading these age gap stories. It's so unrealistic and gross when one is in high school and the other is a full-blown working adult. Make them both high schoolers growing up together or at least a college student and a working adult if the story needs age gap/life experience wish fulfillment. Spoiler alert: he waits for her to grow up and is a gentleman and they get married, but in all circumstances it is super weird and inappropriate for an adult to consider let alone date a high school student. Yucky.

包容力

Inclusiveness

This review contains spoilers. 男性恐怖症の女子高生とギター職人の男性のラブストーリーです。最初は男性恐怖症といいながらヒーローの顔だけをほめて付きまとうなど行動に一貫性のないヒロインをあまり好きになれませんでしたが、とのさんと付き合い始めてだんだんトラウマを克服していったり相手を思いやる言動ができるようになってからは応援したくなりました。とのさんの包容力がすばらしかったです。

This review contains spoilers. It's a love story between a high school girl with male phobia and a man who is a guitar craftsman. At first, I didn't really like the heroine whose behavior was inconsistent, such as praising and following only the hero's face, even though it was called androphobia, but after starting a relationship with To-san, she gradually overcame trauma and was able to speak and act with compassion for her partner, I wanted to support her. To-san's inclusiveness was amazing.

So is the heroine in this film. I respect the way they persevere if they don't lose to the rough past. what's more, cute? Well, it makes me want to protect my boyfriend with all his might.

心の底から湧き上がる…

It springs up from the bottom of my heart...

キュンをありがとうございました(*´˘`*)♡画とお話がマッチし世界観で幸せをもらえる上、読んだ後も心に残る…このフンワカした気持ち。。。わたしにはなかったJK時代を瑶が代わりにしてくれてるような（んな訳ナイ）そんな妄想を持てる、ずーっと最初から最後まで楽しめた作品でした。

Thank you so much for Kyun (*'`*) ♡ The picture and story match, and in addition to receiving happiness from the worldview, it remains in my heart even after reading it... this puzzling feeling... It was a work I enjoyed from beginning to end, with such a delusion that Ko took over the JK era that didn't exist for me (that's why not nice).

Very good!

最近読んだ中で久々にヒットでした。主人公の謡ちゃんが前向きで頑張り屋でかわいい。そして、とのさんがかっこよすぎるー！謡ちゃんを大事に想ってて、あんな愛され方されて羨ますぎる。弟くんも登場するキャラがすごくいい。感動あり切なさあり、すごいキュンキュンあり。見応えのある作品でした。

It was my first hit in a while since I read it recently. The main character, Yo-chan, is positive, hardworking, and cute. And Tono-san is too cool! I take good care of Yo-chan, and I envy her for being loved in such a way. The characters that my little brother also appears in are really nice. There is emotion, there is sadness, and there is so much excitement. It was a spectacular work.

It's been a long time since I started to cringe (*≥∀≤*)

こんなにスッキリするエンディング久々！

It's been a while since I had such a refreshing ending!

結構モヤッとしたりその先が気になるエンディングの作品が多い中、この作品は沢山のキュンを残してくれて、学生時代に読んでたら恋愛に憧れを持ってしまいそうだな〜と思いました！とても大好きな作品です！！

While there are many works with endings that are quite fuzzy and I'm worried about the future, this work left me a lot of questions, and I thought that if I read it when I was a student, I would have a longing for romance! I really love this work!!

すっごく良い話でした。

That was a really good story.

This review contains spoilers. 最初はよくある少女マンガだと読み始めましたが、内容が進むにつれて内容が深くて、登場人物の感情や心理など、うまくできてるなとあっという間に読み切りました。始めは顔が好きと突然の告白でしたが、なぜそんな事をしたのかなど、わかってくると登場人物全てに愛着が湧きました！面白かったです。

This review contains spoilers. At first, I started reading that it was a common girls' manga, but as the content progressed, the content became deeper, and I quickly read through that the characters' emotions and mentality were well-made. At first, I suddenly confessed that I liked the face, but once I understood why they did such a thing, I fell in love with all the characters! That was interesting.
