@SuperOniichan what do you mean by hanakana girl? And who's this kouhai you're referring to?
Overall it's a good read, it feel rushed for me but maybe it's for the better, and Idk what's inside the author's head for him to pair Shinako with Rou it definitely is bad idea but whatever it's his manga he can do whatever he wants with it.
For me overall it's 7.5/10 but because you can't put decimal here I will rate it 8/10 , it was a good read and it's original... I mean the story, the plot, and the character it's different and rare, unlike other romance this one definitely is better, some chapters make me shit, mad, and all but it still give me some...idk how to say it.. I will say it curiosity, there's time when I want to drop this manga but I'm too curious to see the ending, well in conclusion: character 6/10, story 8.5/10, art 8/10
OVERALL 7.5/10
