Her given name isn't actually western - translation notes near the start of the series pointed out it is an actual native Japanese name that just sounds like a western name. Chapter 1, page 6, for reference, all the way in the lower right corner.

She's not 15 here, she's 14. She's 15 as of current-year chapters, though, I believe.

You mean this?

SukiMega has this sort of shit, too. But then, that series is so much purified sugar, just about everyone is nice to everyone nearly all the time, except any backstory moments. You read it to contract diabetes. I finished a romcom with a really drama-heavy final third just before, so it was a...

I totally had the same worries. In fact, when I saw this scene in the anime, I had watched through everything from the Rascal Does Not Dream series not that long before (the whole first (and currently only until later this year) season and the three movies), and my mind immediately was comparing...

This was a refreshing thing in SukiMega, too. I loved the 'future dad-in-law in his head' bits and how they evolved. That series was pure sugar. I wonder if the fact both stories were/are written by women has anything to do with it... They're also both about middle schoolers, too, which...

Not even that. Gravure would imply she's a provocative model for advertising purposes. They're not going to exploit a 14 year old girl like that. All her modeling work has been pretty tame and generic. Like what @LemonLies said, she's just a fashion model trying to break into acting. She...

I don't think he was even trying to pedal in the moment. Her just getting on the bike suddenly without him finishing his thought caused Kyo.exe to hang unexpectedly, and the delay caused her to take a moment herself to reconsider riding in favor of just walking slowly wherever they were going.

Didn't we already kinda get this with Adachi talking with Ichikawa on the steps because he knew he spends time with Yamada now and wanted some insider details?

Everyone thinking the lightning hid the date proposal as an accident, but that rumble just before she spoke, maybe she was expecting to have her words drowned out. It felt like she was dragging out the syllables until the lightning, then she just blurted out the date idea during the lighting on...

Looking forward to the chapter when his sister Kana meets .

Why am I not surprised. And that probably also means Yamada likely retroactively imagined he was hugging her once she realized she was doing the same with his jersey.

That's not his actual height- he was slouching when she took that measurement (trying to hide his 'involuntary physical reaction' to her chest proximity). Is it really hard to notice that? He's also a 13 year old- he has several years of growing yet to do. Did people forget this is a story...

As the translator note on the credits page says, it's miss Sakurai Norio-sensei's cat, the creator of the manga, and her cat was used as a model for the mantis-cat thing that's in the stickers used on LINE by the characters.

To be fair, this is an Extra chapter that might actually be set later on in the narrative, anyway, when they're even more comfortable than they are now. Maybe closer to the end of the school year or something, or into their senior year. I feel like all the 'numbered' Extras specifically are...

Hachi (the person Ataru was responding to) said 'uping his fluff game', though. They weren't talking about the 'dude' part.

*her

This creator, she's just phenomenal. So real, the interactions and reactions. This story keeps proving how much of a masterpiece it is. The subtleties and not-so-subtle moments. I will never not praise Sakurai Norio for what she's achieved with this whole story. And reminder, these are middle...

Heh... I like that this cover art already shows Adachi hanging out with Sekine (Moeko). Foreshadowing, perhaps? I mean, at this point, he's still gunning for Yamada, but ...

The only other middle-school romance I've experienced in manga/anime so far is SukiMega (The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses), which is also written by a woman like BokuYaba, if I'm not mistaken. Though I will note that Komura and Mie's first year of interacting goes by pretty quickly with a...
