Stellar. Read this right now!!!

This review contains spoilers. How refreshing to read a story written by someone who's done a thorough amount of research, or at least has a personal understanding of workplaces, business practices, and employee dynamics. The two main leads are wonderful too: both are sweet, beautiful, and good to each other, but are written with enough care that they don't come across as boring or cardboard cutouts. The villains are interesting too; the ex has a certain kind of romantic delusion that I find both repulsive and fascinating on a psychological level. The story is also pretty sexy without going into full-on r-rated territory, which is a plus in my book personally. Really well done!!!

A CEO who actually works for once

Let me preface by saying the thing I appreciate most in this story is that the two leads are actually passionate about their work and it's not just a character trait mentioned once while they focus more on romance than their career. I'm tired of CEO types who only attend random "meetings" and spend more time splurging money on their partner lol. While the story does more telling than showing when it comes to romantic development, it's good to actually see the viewpoint of not only the male lead but also the antagonist, who is with all his audacity intimidating and not only comically villainous. A bit put off by the male lead's "you're not like other girls" shtick but overall he's a good guy who makes this a feel-good read.

Super cute, straightforward love story

I loved this story. It was so cute and realistic. The pace was perfect for me and I even found the ending satisfying (thats rare for me cuz I’m greedy). No unnecessary 3rd wheeling intruders. Everyone had an actual purpose in the story. A great read!

Simple, refreshing story

I appreciate how rare it is to see a story that explores the male lead's inner thoughts and emotions. So many stories focus primarily on the female lead's perspective, often portraying male leads as distant, mysterious, cold, or hard to read. This fresh point of view feels incredibly refreshing. It's great to see a male lead with genuine emotional depth, facing real dilemmas and expressing his feelings openly.

The story itself is simple yet relatable, which makes it all the more engaging. I also enjoy that the female lead is capable and smart, rather than the usual passive or clumsy stereotype.

関係性が素敵

The relationship is wonderful

This review contains spoilers. 高校の先輩後輩関係。お互い想い合っていたのに思いを告げないまま、大人になってからの再会。よくある話ですが本作は、女性環の意思を尊重してくれる先輩健介が素敵！高校時代からリーダーシップを発揮できる人って、大人になっても変わらず器が大きいんですね。漫画ですが?すれ違いそうになってもお互いの気持ちを確かめ合い、またお互いを尊重し合う。現実でも大事な事だとお話しに感銘しました。

This review contains spoilers. High school senior junior relationship. They were reunited after becoming adults without telling them their thoughts even though they had feelings for each other. It's a common story, but Senpai Kensuke, who respects Onna Kan's intentions, is wonderful in this work! People who can demonstrate leadership from high school don't change even when they become adults, and they have great talents. it's a comic, though? They confirm each other's feelings even when they seem to pass each other, and they also respect each other. I was impressed by the story that it is important even in real life.

大人

彼がすごく大人で素敵。出会いもなんか良いし、主人公も感じが良くて、これからが楽しみ。彼がまだまだ力出て来そう。また絵がとても上手くて描きすぎてなくて読みやすい！

He's so mature and nice. The encounter was kind of good, the main character was also pleasant, and I'm looking forward to the future. It looks like he's still coming out of his strength. Also, the pictures are so good that they don't draw too much and are easy to read!

This review contains spoilers. すごく興味深い作品だな。絵もキレイだし、なぜか女性に魅力がありすぎ。ストーリーも特別っていう内容ではないけど主人公に魅力があるから良く感じる

This review contains spoilers. It's a really interesting work. The pictures are beautiful, and for some reason they are too attractive to women. The story isn't special either, but I feel good because the main character is attractive

強引社長いい。

Gokiksha is a long time.

This review contains spoilers. ヒロイン仕事は充実してそうだけど、男を見る目がないみたいで元カレがストーカーみたくなってるし、男が寄ってこないように上司と不倫してるとか噂流したり、最悪な思いをした分、せっかく高校時代の先輩と再会したから先輩と幸せになって欲しい。

This review contains spoilers. Her heroine job seems to be fulfilling, but she doesn't seem to have an eye for men, and her ex-boyfriend looks like a stalker, and rumors spread that she was having an affair with her boss so that men wouldn't stop by, and that made me feel the worst, so I want her to be happy with her high school senior.

Ex-boyfriend ‼️ what is he doing. It's probably no good to hurt your own career, but ‼️ women who have fallen that far are amazing.

元カレしつこい

My ex boyfriend is clingy

元カレがねちっこくて、しつこくて異常すぎる。ヒーローの秘書も嫌そうな女だし、あまり味方がいないのはなぜだろう。ヒロインは美人で控えめで素敵なので応援したくなる。

My ex boyfriend is naughty, clingy, and too abnormal. The hero's secretary is also a woman she doesn't like, so I wonder why she doesn't have many allies. The heroine is beautiful, modest, and wonderful, so I want to cheer for her.
