Playboy Kai definitely knows his way around girls' hearts, but when he has a run-in with tomboy Riko, he may be in for more than he bargained for! Riko definitely doesn't fit Kai's usual type of girl: she's short-tempered, scary, and can (has) easily beat him up. There's no way a rough and tumble girl like Riko is capable of a delicate feeling like love! So imagine his surprise when he finds out about her secret, one-sided crush... But it's none of his concern, right?

When it comes to mangas I either like them or I don’t on the first chapters. I feel in love with this story. Love the fact that it’s a shojo, but out main character is a boy.

The background story of this two main character do not disappoint. The art is so beautiful too.

Can wait to keep following these babies!

Kai, ever-suave, is used to being the target of affection. But deep inside, he's in turmoil because the girl he loves has eyes for another! Can he find a way to be direct and confess his feelings? After things on the school camping trip don't go his way, Kai's left dumped and convinced he's better off just giving up on girls and dating altogether. Yet somehow his friends rope him into a group date, and he ends up at the amusement park with...Riko!? But when Suwa-sensei turns up at the same park with another woman, will Kai be able to hide what he saw and protect Riko from experiencing heartbreak like he has?

Insta love its no my cup of coffee but I find endearing that he’s head over heels with her, and she is oblivious to that 😂

They say idiots don't get colds, but Kai sure has been love-sick over Riko. There's a fireworks festival around the corner, but instead of asking Riko along, he decides to just not go! When Class Representative work keeps them late at school anyway, it looks like the perfect chance for Kai to collect his feelings and confess...With summer vacation approaching and fireworks booming overhead, will the feelings Kai's precariously kept under wraps finally explode?

This broke my heart in so many ways. Seriously how can she be so dense and so smart at the same time 😆 lord!

On the heels of his inadvertent slip (which went right over Riko's head), Kai's spiraling into depression all over again. He's so befuddled with thoughts of Riko, he even fails one of his finals! While he's preoccupied with makeup exams, his friends are still determined to make Kai and Riko a couple. So when a study group is formed, guess who turns out to be Kai's tutor...Will this study session cover an extra subject-love?!

Oh boy! I’m in love with Kai. He’s so dramatic 😂 and I live his niece and nephew they are so dang cute! 😍

Kai just can't shake his feelings for Riko, no matter how hard he tries (or how many other girls he dates). When it comes to first loves, though, Riko knows better than most how hard it can be to let things go. With Suwa and Akemi's wedding fast approaching, will Riko be able to finally tell her most important people a heartfelt "Congratulations"...?

Finally the wait might be over!!! If this doesn’t get through that dense head of her I don’t know what will!

Someday I want to fall in love and be happy. That's a dream everyone shares, right?Former ladies-man Kai has fallen hard for tomboy Riko, and he finally managed to confess his feelings to her. But will Riko's more subdued feelings clash with Kai's sensitive side?

Finally! it’s been a journey and probably they still have more to go through. What I like the best is that we got to see Taka’s history it’s a bit like “Love me, love me not” (another manga, but this is by the “Ao Haru Ride” mangaka).

I see love blooming in the horizon for our mysterious Taka and our favorite shook reporter!

After an uneasy start to their relationship, Kai and Riko are officially dating! But now Kai has a new ocean of relationship questions to cross -- first up: what kind of lunch do you bring your girlfriend?!

Takaya and Shimura's dating relationship is supposedly just for show, but after introducing his "girlfriend" to his parents, something seems to have changed. The tables have apparently turned, as now Taka needs Kai's help for his relationship!

Relationship woes are plaguing Aoba High...! After confessing his love to Shimura, Taka must now suffer the waiting game: Will she accept his feelings, or was their "relationship" just another headline for her paper? Also trapped by fear, Kagura begins to worry that she has placed her heart in the hands of the wrong boy. Amidst all this, Kai struggles to read Riko, wishing he could be as affectionate with her as he was with other girls. Will these couples work things out themselves, or will divine intervention be required?
