I don’t think I liked this story as much as Ao Haru Ride. I like the main character to have a little bit of spice and bite. Ren-kun was too monotone. 

Despite that I enjoy the love story, and the side stories of the secondary characters. I also feel that situations that happened on this story line are a bit similar to the other manga I mentioned at the beginning.

I don’t know if I mentioned this on the review of the other manga I looooove her her drawing style!! The eyes are the best!

Recommended!

I think it don’t matter how many time I read this story I’m still going to like it.

Our heroine Ninako is pretty clueless when it comes to love, until she experiences a side of Ren Ichinose that no one know and she falls in love for the first time.

The only problem is that Ren already has a girlfriend 😱 Her first love was doomed even before it started.

I realized I can go through these type of stories like water this is the type of love story I crave.

I love Io Sakisaka art but you can tell this was before Ao Haru Ride some scenes look a bit stiff sometimes but still pretty cute.

Also even though Ren might look a lot Kou their personality sooo it’s different. 

I’m already starting the next volume. Can’t wait!

I do find it funny how fast does Ando falls for Ninako. Like all of the sudden hot boys start falling for her 😂 poor Daiki he never stood a chance! 

Ugh I just love how natura Ninako and Ren are when they are together, and Ren doesn’t even realizes he is catching feelings for Ninako… but his girlfriend knows and she also realizes that Ren does not know. I don’t think she is a bad person though. 

I totally ship Sayuri and Daiki 😍

Already starting the next one!
