7.5/10 I’ll be honest: Although I love the romance genre, I prefer subtle ones that develop in later chapters. To add to this, I’ve only read ones with drama or a harem, so this is one of the few romance mangas I’ve read with no other competing love interest. The manga is jammed packed with wholesome moments while progressing in character or plot. It’s a nice read considering there’s actual progress in relationships, and the story containing other plot points besides romance. If there was a fault, then it would stem from the predictability/lack of originality. On a side note, the mc can definitely be “cringy”or “simp-like” which can definitely turn people off; but he gets better and do note that it’s the love of his life in front of him, of course he’s not going to be calm minded. Anyway, enjoy a rather wholesome read.

I saw this on a manga recap and I thought to myself, “why tf am I watching a recap and not reading this crap”
