Le design est vraiment bon mais l histoire est pas ouf . Le protagoniste est mauvais et cliché . On retrouve toute les scenes classique du genre avec plus de fan service . C est fanchement moyen

I'mma be honest it's a very good manga. The only thing I dislike so much and that's where the most of the drama occurs these MCs being so pathetically weak like bro grow some balls get the courage leap sheesh.

this manga is really good

the fanservice is exactly the right amount and the mangaka knows how to make their characters really expressive

the height difference is also appreciated and I love twintails heroines

I love how she always wear different clothes between each chapters

it's a fun read especially because it's fun to see someone grow to become a good artist

both couples complement each other and thy grow each other and alongside each other. They are so perfect for each other

the ecchi is to put simply very well drawn and it makes me wanna draw ecchi scenes like that too. the ecchi scenes aren't only great because it's hot but also because it is very beautiful the mangaka put a lot of thoughts in the clothes in those scenes as well, the clothes are great too and very well drawn

its nice art
pretty ero too
its just very convenient
cute gyaru girl has the same hobbies as you
cute gyaru girl likes the same obscure manga you do

jus in line with all the others
hey look a cute girl can have social anxiety or be asocial just like insert obese 30 yr old otaku dreaming of what could have been 18 years ago.
still i find these to be more dishonest than anything
its a nice casual read tho, jus not in public spaces
I feel like reading this in public is fine since the ecchi feels more artistic to me than just horny

like the ero scenes are genuinely beautiful and the MC is a cute shota too that meows at cats

Eu não sou de reclamar não, mas eu literalmente fiquei bipolar lendo esse mangá, uma hora eu tô com raiva do protagonista não conseguir com uma mulher e na outra hora eu tô triste porque ele não consegue se confessar ou quando se confessa fala que é brincadeira, eu tô estressado e isso foi um desabafo 🖕🖕🖕

The art is fantastic and both MCs are relatable despite all odds. One of the few mangas i've actually lol to. As much as i like it and as great the two characters are, its just as basic and uninspred as a "cheap" romcom can get. The author seems focused solely on getting the (insert generic trope here) scene in the manga at the cost of the characters. If one was to argue that fan service should have strict limits, this would be the absolute best example. The FMC just flips a switch for the audience it feels like.

With all that being said i still recomend it. just don't let anyone see you read it lmao.

8/10

Well written rom-com with an interesting premise.
Art is excellent, obviously a lot of detail on the FL but also nice background scenes and funny facial expressions for comedic value.
While the premise of two different students aspiring to be mangakas is mostly used as a setup device in the beginning, it shifts towards actually pushing character development later in the series. Chapter 32 probably pushed the rating up a whole star at least; having both characters actually sharing a major interest and goal/dream to work towards already puts it above all of the slice of life romance mangas with no real premise.

ML: I feel like the author could've made him a little less plain, and at least could've made him taller than 5 foot esp since the FL is like 6 feet tall. But at least he got a unique hairstyle for a romcom MC. He does go through character development, but it makes it harder to relate to the character when hes legit a midget.

FL: Shes basically written to be perfect in every way, which is maybe a little too much, but she does show some moments of vulnerability (a few times) and one moment where she actually messes up and hurts his feelings (once) later on which gives her character more depth. But idk if it was necessary for the author to give her like H cup as a HS student.

Also I don't like the fact that they introduced a childhood friend and made the readers sympathize with her, when we all know she's gonna have her hopes dashed in the end.

All in all, good rom-com but over the top on fanservice for my taste. But if you don't mind it then its good.

If the MC isn't relatable to you because he's 5', it's important to keep in mind the author was not trying to make it relatable to you. It's a manga -- as in, it's Japanese.

This was a good one.

I always like a confident lead character (whether ML or FML it doesn't matter) and this one is no different since Miyamoto does a lot of the leg work for both her and Uehara. I can often excuse (within reason) a ML's lack of self-confidence if it's balanced out with an over-the-top FML—Dress Up Darling does it like this too. That being said though, Uehara does get a little cheekier the more comfortable he gets, which is always fun. Gojo from Dress Up Darling didn't really do that.

If I had to say something I didn't really like—it would be the lack of variety perhaps? The timeline of events is usually, Miyamoto does something daring, Uehara gets embarrassed, Miyamoto gets embarrassed because Uehara got embarrassed, the two run away from each other, then apologize a day or two later. Rinse and repeat. Throwing the childhood friend in is a cliché move for sure and I have a lot to say about the trope itself, but it does break the current dynamic, so I can give it a pass so long as it doesn't lean too hard into it.

That being said, I do like that Uehara noticed his feelings pretty early, which put all the emphasis on Miyamoto. And so now we're seeing how she navigates falling in love with him. It's messy and it's complicated, and it's hard to put words too—so it feels like a first love, and that's awesome. Especially since it's very easy to create artificial conflict by making the FML and ML know they love each other but not communicate it at all and be swept up by their own delusions. I abhor that trope with every fiber of my being, and if it happens here then imma be so pissed... However, so long as one (Miyamoto) is unsure, the conflict feels real. It's hard to understand yourself so intimately when you're that young after all.

Overall, a solid 8/10 — it's a cute story between two very passionate, aspiring mangakas, with a healthy dose of ero as well—good for the soul XDXD In all seriousness, I could've done without so much, but that's more of a personal opinion than a critique on the work itself so I'll leave it there.

I'm really enjoying it but I don't like that a new girl at chapter 10 was introduced I'll pray it doesn't go down that route

TLDR: Starts off as a strong pseudo-relationship, ends up a mid "Pick me" harem story with loser childhood friend. Don't be shocked if we get another mediocre losing heroine.

It started off super strong but I feel that with the introduction and progression of the childhood friend's romance, it'll be annoying given there's no way she'll be the winning FMC. She's a pretty bland plot device that stands no chance (it's establish the MC likes the FMC since like chapter 10). Meanwhile the main couple are incorrigible, the MC is a wuss and the FMC is just as bad, if not worse at times. I get it's supposed to be a cute romance but it comes off as frustrating to read when every time the couple makes a move or confession they play it off as something manga related, so there's 0 real progress.

To make matters worse, with chapter 36 or so, their entire pseudo-romance thing is ruined because the FMC tells the childhood friend about it. So now, instead of a pseudo to true romance story, the childhood friend is doing some fake relationship thing too making it a bland "Who will he pick" harem. I get that someone in the chain of this mess wants more money but the direction is so bad. The entire pseudo-romance arc could've been solved by chapter 30~35 as it becomes evidently clear they like each other, and yet they're somehow so dense to each other.
