Its cute how innocent when she is in love, and you will see it in the end chapters which is probably what the author like to portray.

I used to read this in a blog few years ago. But that owner unpublished her scans and the translations.
It's good that I finally can binge read all chaps.

This is a great story. I'm glad I ran across so many excellent ones recently.
No, I don't recommend this story. There are no characters or plot development. Even if you skip from chapter 5 to 30 you can jump back in just fine and that said, the characters just don't mature.
It does not earn the genre drama, and definitely does not belong to josei demographics.
The female lead is an idiot, who does not learn from past mistakes. Male lead is a flat character without realistic flaws or supporting backstories.
Even though almost all characters are in their late twenties, they just act like teenagers.
I think it is okay if you just want a mindless story to kill time, but that is basically all you can expect from it.
Don't get me wrong, it's a light romantic comedy but a shallow one at that. If you are here for comedy, it's probably enjoyable if you look past all the above-mentioned shortcomings.

Back in the day I was crazy for Nakahara Aya's works. Rereading this one now, I am really confused at myself. It is such a dragging story, I couldn't even enjoy the comedy bcs the ML is ruuuuuude af. I guess our perception of relationships - and apparently manga as well- change in time. I agree wholeheartedly with the two posts before mine.

Um bom mangá, quase desisti de ler logo no começo mas fico feliz de que não o fiz. Mesmo com poucos capítulos realmente focados nos sentimentos de ambos foi capaz de me fazer feliz, ficaria mais ainda se tivesse mais, mas consigo imaginar como é o final. Uma obra muito boa.

I came in with lower expectations, but MAN I was wrong. This is a phenomenal work that should be talked about far more often!
Both of the main characters are fantastic in their depth and growth in the series, but every character is amazing in their own right. Shibata is a very stupid girl that has had one of the roughest nontragic lives, but she keeps moving forward. Watching her struggle with her weakness and find happiness is as equally entertaining as her natural silliness and expressions. Of course Shunin/Kurosawa is the perfect counter to her character, as he is able to keep up with her jokes and support her any time she needs it. He is strong, but he is not perfect. Their interactions had me laughing constantly, but the heartfelt moments were just as strong. Even then, every character was great and I loved all of them (even the one I love to hate). The interactions and conversations really made this world feel alive.
The story is rather simple, which is very fitting for the slice of life setting. What makes it interesting is the ages of the characters. This isn't a struggling teen or even college student; this is a group around their 30s starting over after life had its way. There is so much comedy that the hard and scary moments really hit. The conflicts don't linger too long, and they feel very much real.
10/10 If you like slice of life with adults, then PLEASE read this. It is a wonderful tale of fighting for happiness in a world that will take advantage of anyone willing to allow it and finding those that one can depend on in times of need. It is a long series, as each chapter is 40-50 pages, but it is worth EVERY moment. This is one of the greats that was somehow missed, and it's a damn shame.
