Hatsukoi Harinezumi

I was quite skeptical when I picked this up, as the plot seemed very well suited for kids. I still think it is, but I still very much enjoyed it. A story involving magic isn't new, but the way the spell had to be undone is cute and romantic. And I was surprised how much I liked the romance, because love as depicted in oneshots is incredibly rushed and makes no sense. But with Sora having already been in love with a girl and then showcasing their daily relationship little by little, the mangaka did a superb job of letting things progress at a smoothpace, possibly done easily in 50 pages. The art also has this carefree look to it which reminds me of a simple breeze, adorable and yet not too sweet. If you don't mind it being a oneshot, I'd recommend this to anyone who'd like light love: 8/10.
