Cheeky Brat

Yo, I ain’t a reviewer and I have never reviewed a manga before but this manga pissed me off so much that I had to write about it. First of all, Yuki, (the female protagonist) doesn’t take any of Naruse’s (the male protagonist) feelings in consideration. Let’s say if you had a partner, and a friend of the opposite sex just kissed her or hugged her. How would you feel? How would you feel if your partner talks about things that they should be talking about with you to that friend. How would you feel if that friend has conveyed their feelings to your partnerand your partner is still in contact with them? Every chapter is always the same shit but it gets worse. First someone hugs her, then someone kisses her. In the end, the male protagonist doesn’t do anything about it and Yuki continues to give that “friend” attention. Along with this comes with a sense that Yuki thinks she’s “changing”. I may be speaking from personal experience, I may be insecure and have trust issues. But Yuki annoys me so much. Naruse deserves better. If she saw Naruse get hugged, or even kissed by another girl. How would she feel? Terrible right? So why can’t Yuki put herself in Naruse’s shoes and try and understand what all these things make him feel. If you wanna read this manga, get ready for a terribly written, but sometimes wholesome manga. Also, if you have had past relationships like this, I completely understand.

So late on this manga but I finished it yesterday and absolutely loved it! The artwork is nice and progressively gets better, I loved how fast pace the story was. usually, we need to wait a bit longer for the romance to begin but the ML was straightforward about it. Need a bit of patience with the FL as she can have some very annoying moments, but the whole point is their growth development and them navigating their relationship all through high school :) some moments were frustrating but overall the story is sooooo cute and I'd die to have a boyfriend like Naruse :3<3 so excited to read the last few chapters releasing this March!

I'm honestly not sure how to feel about this one. The first quarter of the series is great. The characters (in theory) are amazing. The concept is very enticing and I feel like I blew past the first part of this series. The second quarter builds up a lot of expectation, but nothing ever happens. The third quarter is an absolute repetitive pit where ideas to to die. It was almost unbearable to see a protagonist that refuses to change, refuses to get better, to learn, to become kind. She has no dreams, nothing to look forward to (not even the LI). I fell in love withevery single character of this series but the lead ruined the entire story for me. I have to say the author actually did something decent and finished the series in a very nice and original way that made the nightmare of those 40-something unbearable chapters feel like a dream of the past. I guess I'm glad I read it but I'm also glad it's done and I don't have to go through this again.
