Both main male characters have already a girl on their sight but being "bothered" with an another girl which they find annoying.
Both manga titles shares kind of the same plot and character relations.
Great character designs and artworks.

Sep 26, 200811 of ? chapters read 12 of 16 people found this review helpful Watashitachi no Tamura-kun (Our Dear Tamura-kun) is a Slice of Life, Romance, Comedy, Drama that has a characteristic love triangle set-up, but is really absorbing and unpredictable.
Just like with your average romance manga, the story is told from the point of view of your ordinary teenage boy named Yukisada Tamura. He becomes romantically involved with two very different girls, during two separate points in his school life and this eventually becomes a problem as the two converg...e. The way the story’s told is rather captivating, because the reader follows the experiences of the protagonist. Seeing how he becomes acquainted with each girl, the way he gets to know them and then learns of their troubled past. Though for such a short manga this certainly went off to a slow start and it didn’t really pick up until the end of the 1st volume. Nevertheless the lack of clichés certainly makes for a great romantic story. So far no serious love triangle dilemma has kicked in, though I’m expecting great things from this manga.
When it comes to the characters, this manga undoubtedly has a great bunch although I have mixed feelings about the protagonist. Sure Yukisada is a normal guy who can act like both an upstanding guy and a total jackass; however his fickle attitude tends to get a bit annoying from time to time. Then there are the perplexing girls Komaki Matsuzawa who initially felt like a real weirdo & Hiroka Souma who came across as a cold-hearted bitch. What makes them the more interesting has to be the narrative style of writing, because you’ll learn more about them as the protagonist learns.
Even with such an above average story and characters, the artwork for this manga is rather average. Strangely enough it is the scenery that stood out to me and not the characters, which were quite roughly drawn on the other hand the rough style did help in portraying the protagonist’s erratic thought patterns.
Overall Watashitachi no Tamura-kun is an absorbing narrative of the inexperienced protagonist and his trials of romance and the hardships that come with it. Though I had a slight problem with how overdramatic the characters tend to get. It’s quite odd how such a guy ended up with the two of them, but the circumstances that got them together are what made the story interesting in the first place. People who enjoy ‘shipping’ would certainly like this romantic set-up, because your favourite heroine may constantly change as you progress.
