Fantastic story writing!!

One of the better romances I’ve read! It’s not a slow burn and there are no miscommunication or other drama tropes. It’s just pure, swoon-worthy romance with two characters who know what they want and are honest about their feelings. It’s so endearing and refreshing to read. The side characters are also written very well and add a lot of great moments to the story. Even the possible love triangle is so intriguing and I can’t wait to see how things develop for all the characters!

Very cute!

As of writing I have only read up to Volume 3, but it's a really great start. I like the female and male lead a lot! Though with the nervousness and clumsiness of being high school students, they are straightforward and earnest. I find Yamaguchi's gap cute (he won't like that lol). Shinohara is likeable and someone you want to cheer on. The named side characters are still few, but they are good too and I hope they get expanded on. The artstyle is simple and charming. I'm glad I was able to pick this up!

Not a Slow Burn

For those more interested in the dynamics of an established relationship (they get together in Volume 3), this is the manga for you. For my slow-burn loving heart, however, I'm not compelled by these two since I don't know enough about these characters to care about them. That's what I felt reading the free three volumes, anyway. That said, toward the end of the third volume, we're starting to learn more about the female lead outside of her interest in the male lead, so maybe we'll learn about them in the context of their relationship.

In love with the first three chapters

So very cute! Wholesome, too :)
I wish there were more chapters included in the free read of premium. I hope in future volumes we get to know the side characters more!

キュンキュンしちゃう♡

I'm going to cringe ♡

この作品が読みたくて登録しました。全体的にキュンキュンすることが多くていい！主人公の友達の行動までもが良くて、自分がそこにいるかのよう、友達になったかのようにハマった♡続きが気になる‼︎

I registered because I wanted to read this work. Overall, it's nice that there are a lot of things that make you cringe! Even the behavior of the main character's friend was good, and I was addicted to it as if I were there and as if they had become friends ♡ I'm curious about the continuation ‼ ︎

Anyway, it's cute. I was able to see more and more of Yamaguchi-kun's gaps from the beginning, and it was amazing! I want Satsuki-chan to continue for a long time

ピュア

pure

This review contains spoilers. ヒーローは見た目が強面でワルに思われがちですが、実際は真面目で勉強もできる優秀でピュア男の子。そしてその事に気が付いてくれているヒロインも素敵です。関西弁とか方言が好きな人にもおススメです。

This review contains spoilers. Heroes are strong looking and tend to be thought of as badass, but in reality, they are excellent, pure boys who are serious and can study. And the heroine who noticed that is also wonderful. I also recommend it to people who like Kansai dialect or dialects.

めっちゃはまった

I'm really addicted

何年振りかに漫画買いました。皐ちゃんと飛鳥くんの名前もいいし、２人の掛け合いもその場ですぐに解決するコミュニケーションも二人が二人を見る目が愛おしかったです！最後まで読もうと思います！

I bought comics for the first time in years. The names of Satsu-chan and Asuka-kun are nice, and the way they both looked at them was lovely, both their interaction and the communication that was quickly resolved on the spot! I think I'll read it to the end!

何度も読み返す作品

Works to be reread over and over

好きで何度も読み返している作品です。なんでこんなに読み返すのかな〜って考えると、モヤモヤすることがないからだと思います。ちょっとすれ違いそう…ってなっても必ず山口くんか皐ちゃんのどちらかが歩み寄って解決するから見てて気持ちがいい。皐ちゃんがちゃんと自分の気持ちを相手に伝えられる子なのが素敵。それはそれとしてキュンとできるポイントもたくさんあるのでおすすめです。

It's a work I like and have been rereading over and over again. When I think about why I reread it so much, I think it's because I don't get confused. It feels good to watch because either Yamaguchi-kun or Satsu-chan will always walk up and resolve it, even if they seem to pass by a little bit... It's wonderful that Ka-chan is a child who can properly convey her feelings to her partner. There are plenty of points you can do with that, so I recommend it.

キュンすぎて苦しい

It's painful because it's too loud

This review contains spoilers. 久しぶりにこんなにときめく少女漫画に出会えました。全ての巻で、もれなくキュンキュンします！！アラフォーBBAですが高校生に戻った錯覚に陥りました。山口くんの見た目と真面目さが良い。皐もかわいい。ぱっちり二重じゃなくて、一重っぽい黒目がちな大きな目が、少女漫画のヒロインにあまりない顔のような気がして、新鮮でかわいくて好き。真面目な2人のじりじりと縮まる距離感…良い。キュンしすぎて動揺してページを飛ばしすぎることもしばしば…だがそれも良き。とにかく読んだ後に毎巻いつも心が満たされました。続きが早く読みたい…！！！！あと、石崎くんには幸せになってほしい。切ない。最初の頃よりイケメンになってて普通にかっこいいし。琴音ちゃんの気持ち…違うの？どうなの！？今後が気になる。石崎くんサイドも丁寧にやっていただけるとなおありがたい…。

This review contains spoilers. It's been a long time since I came across such an exciting manga for girls. Every volume makes me cringe!! It's Alafo BBA, but I fell into the illusion that I was back in high school. Yamaguchi-kun's appearance and seriousness are good. The thighs are cute too. It's not exactly double, and I like her large eyes, which tend to have single black eyes, and I feel like the heroine in girls' comics doesn't have many faces, and she's fresh and cute. The sense of distance shrinking between the two serious people... good. I often skip pages too much because I'm too nervous and upset... but that's good too. Anyway, my heart was always satisfied after reading every volume. I want to read more soon...!!! Also, I want Ishizaki-kun to be happy. It's sad. He's been a good-looking guy since the beginning and he's usually cool. Kotone's feelings... are they different? how is it!? I'm worried about the future. I would be even more grateful if Ishizaki-kun was careful on the side...

きゅんきゅんが止まらない…

Kyun Kyun can't stop...

40代オバハンですが、あの頃に戻れるのなら山口くんと恋愛したい…キュンキュンしながら最新12巻まで読了。正直なところ、ヒロインがあまりにウブ過ぎて、せっかちなオバさんはイラついてしまうこともありました、特に最初の頃は。でも2人の進展加減がほんとジリジリ、でも確実にヒロインが成長し関係が成熟していく様がすごく丁寧に描かれています。山口くんの強面関西弁と真面目で誠実なキャラのギャップがホント愛おしい…。我が娘には是非山口くんのようなステキな男性とステキな恋愛をしてほしい！という一心で読み続けることでしょう。

I'm an old man in my 40s, but if I can go back to those days, I want to be in love with Yamaguchi-kun... I've read the latest 12 volumes with great pleasure. Honestly, the heroine was so stubborn that the impatient old lady sometimes got annoyed, especially at the beginning. However, the progress of the two is really jittery, but it is very carefully depicted how the heroine definitely grows and the relationship matures. The gap between Yamaguchi-kun's strong Kansai dialect and his serious and sincere characters is really adorable... I want my daughter to have a wonderful relationship with a wonderful man like Yamaguchi-kun! I'm sure you'll keep reading it with all your heart.
