Tedama Ni Toritai Kurokiya-San is a light-hearted and genuinely funny romcom between a “gal” and a “straight-forward” boy in high-school. The characters are portrayed pretty well with the male lead in particular being unexpectedly direct (something that almost the polar opposite of how most are portrayed in manga). The female lead also, is characterised with some exceedingly funny reactions and facial expressions which leaves you almost laughing out loud every chapter. In addition, alongside this is the recent introduction of an equally likeable side-cast. The balance between humour and touching moments are pretty spot on with the various antics you’d expect to develop as the charactersand backgrounds are introduced. Interestingly whilst the series should probably have an ecchi tag, it is minor and not overplayed at all so it fits the theme well. It’s still early in the series so the story hasn’t expanded much on wider locations or drama. Relationships are developing not too fast and not too slow so it’s a fairly entertaining experience so far.

The art is good and panelling clean so it’s a really easy read. If you’re a fan of light-hearted wholesome romcoms between unexpected pairings then you will enjoy this too.
