8 /10

tl;dr: A not particularly deep but humorous and cute manga about a girl trying and failing to lose weight. This manga was funny and really cute. It’s mostly structured as a 4koma with punch lines in each fourth panel, though it breaks from this quite often when it feels it wants to show something more in depth. It felt like there were some light themes about accepting yourself for you who you are but this largely didn’t seem to be the focus as Chihaya never really has any sort of realization around this regard and remains wanting to lose weight up into the ending. Hence, this aspect isprimarily used for comedic purposes, as well as being one of the key things part of the relationship between Chihaya and Shima. The relationship development between them is great and quite adorable at times, though ultimately I wish we ended up getting more of them actually doing couple things after that had been established. The other relationships, by which I mostly mean Rui and Kishibe, were less solid and actually felt kind of annoying in that nothing happened in the end. The art wasn’t terrible, but in general it was pretty rough, and the shots that felt like they were meant to be especially good generally didn’t look all that amazing either. Also, Chihaya doesn’t seem fat at all, though I’m not sure if that’s due to art style or my perspective based of of being an American where being overweight is a much larger issue that most everyone simply ignores.
