sweet slice of life

Love this sweet slice of life. No major drama, just soft moments. There's also a more realistic depiction of a LGBT character than what you usually see in manga.

A manga that will leave you hungry but also full

This is such a beautiful heartwarming LGBT story! The characters feel like real people and I can definitely relate to Haru! I didn't expect aromantic representation when reading this! The vibes remind me of She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat, especially with the recipes at the end of each chapter! Every chapter leaves my heart full and my stomach hungry!

Sweet and simple

Incredibly wholesome story. Means a lot to see relatable themes like these conveyed in a manga. The story can be a little repetitive at times with the heavy focus on the lunches but there is an ongoing plot and a lot to learn about all the characters. Feeling hopeful for this!

大当たりです

It's a big hit

This review contains spoilers. 面白そうな作品に出会いを求め初めて読み始めましたほのぼの癒しです自分が稼いだお金ですきなことにつぎ込む没頭するそれはなにも悪くないよでも誰かと一緒に過ごすそれも幸せだよね

This review contains spoilers. I started reading it for the first time in search of interesting works. It's heartwarming healing. It's a heartwarming healing, spending time with the money you've earned, immersing yourself in something that's not bad, but spending time with someone is also happy

心が平らかになる漫画

A comic that calms the mind

試し読みの時は主人公のハルちゃんのキャラが、自虐的すぎてちょっと…と思ったんですが、読んでいくうちに好きになりました全巻通して、切なくなったりもしますが何かこう…幸せってこういう日常だなぁ…って読んでて多幸感ハンパなかったですもっと読みたかったーー！続編希望！

At the time of the trial reading, I thought the character of the main character Haru-chan was too self-deprecating... but as I read it, I fell in love with it. I went through all the volumes, and it felt sad, but something like this... happiness is this kind of everyday life... and I wasn't too happy; I wanted to read more! Hope for a sequel!

オネエとオタク

Oneye and Otaku

This review contains spoilers. ドラマ見たかった~。知ったのが遅くて残念…それほどこの作品が良かったのですよ~オネエのアオとオタクのハル、余りにも違うこの二人のルームシェアそしてお弁当を通しての様々な出会いや話がとても良かった！暖かい気持ちになれる素晴らしい漫画でした。

This review contains spoilers. I wanted to watch dramas~. Too bad I found out so late... this work was so good ~ Ao from Onee and Haru the Otaku, and the various encounters and stories through these two very different room shares and bento boxes were so nice! It was a wonderful comic that made me feel warm.

オタク女子とオネエのルームシェア

Otaku girl and one woman share a room

お互いが作ったお弁当を贈り合いっこするっていいな。焼き鮭と枝豆の混ぜご飯とか美味しそうだけど、それで足りる？と思ってしまった。

It would be nice to give each other bento boxes made by each other. Rice mixed with grilled salmon and edamame sounds delicious, but is that enough? That made me think.

オタク女子とジェンダーレス男子の恋

Love between an otaku girl and a genderless boy

This review contains spoilers. このオタク女子ハルとジェンダーレス男子のアオの組み合わせとそれぞれの人物造形がまず面白い。ほんわか系同士で会話が絶妙です。二人を結ぶ絆というべき「お弁当」があまりに美味しそうで・・・いったんこのムードにハマりこむと気持ち良すぎて時の経つのを忘れてしまいそうです。

This review contains spoilers. First of all, the combination of Otaku Girl Hal and Genderless Boy Ao and their respective figures are interesting. The conversation between these warm and fuzzy people is exquisite. The “bento,” which should be called the bond between two people, seems so delicious... once you get into this mood, it feels so comfortable that you almost forget the passage of time.

ホッコリする

I'm going to get dusty

This review contains spoilers. 優しい漫画だなと思います。料理を通してコミュ症だった主人公の女の子が友情と料理の腕を磨いていくというお話。何回読んでも飽きないし料理の勉強にもなります。

This review contains spoilers. I think it's a gentle comic. It's a story about the main character, a girl who has a social disorder, refines her friendship and cooking skills through cooking. No matter how many times you read it, you won't get tired of it, and it also helps you learn how to cook.

I was surprised not to know that it was the last volume in volume 6. It was a very good comic that taught me that I want to meet Haru-chan and Ao-san again~ be kind and just be yourself. Thank you

I wonder if it will be made into a movie (even Yasushi Seto would like to see it!) Also, I want to immerse myself in the atmosphere of Haruao World, not just that fluffy and warm...!

I am always healed by Ao Haru-chan's kind interactions. The pictures are also kind and I love them, so I got into it right away. I'm looking forward to seeing Haru-chan grow while getting involved with those around her.

ひょんなことから同居が始まり流れでお弁当を作りっこする。誰かが自分を思って作ってくれるご飯がいかに貴重か、再確認できるお話かと思います。

By accident, they start living together and start making bento boxes as a matter of fact. I think it's a story where you can reaffirm how valuable meals someone makes for you are.

I learned from other people's reviews that it had been discontinued. It was a work I loved, so it's really disappointing... thank you so much, author, for making it complete. Thank you for your hard work!! It really was a wonderful and soothing work! Someday... I'm looking forward to seeing you draw a sequel or extra edition!

終わったことが残念

Too bad it's over

連載開始から読み続けて、ドラマ化での蒼さんの違和感も乗り越えたのにここで打ち切りとは本当に残念です。ハルちゃんと蒼さんのこれからをもっと読みたかった‥。

It's really unfortunate that Ao-san was discontinued here even though they continued to continue reading from the start of the series, and even though they overcame Ao-san's sense of incongruity in the drama adaptation. I wanted to read more about Haru-chan and Ao-san from now on...

お弁当いいなぁ

Bento is nice

This review contains spoilers. 日常にあるお弁当。日常にあるからこそお弁当は飽きつつあり楽しみでもあるんだと思う。完結しちゃったけどこれからも二人でお弁当を作り合いながら仲良く時に喧嘩したりぶつかり合ったりして暮らしていくんだろうなぁ

This review contains spoilers. Bento is a part of everyday life. I think I'm getting tired of bento boxes because they are in my everyday life, and I'm also looking forward to it. It's finished, but I wonder if the two of them will continue to live by fighting and bumping into each other when they are good friends while making bento
