Synopsis

Tall, busty high schooler Hitomi Takano has shark teeth, a looming presence, and a truly terrifying face. As an upperclassman named Yuu Usami finds out, however, looks can be deceiving. Beneath her massive frame and intense glare, Hitomi-chan is a sweet girl who just wants to overcome her social anxiety and make some friends. As Yuu gets to know her, they grow close—so close that maybe friendship won't be enough! Don't miss this charming romcom between a scary-but-sweet girl and her smaller, loving senpai.

Preliminary (15/144 eps)
Hitomi-chan wa Hitomishiri or Hitomi-chan Is Shy With Strangers, is a manga about a socially awkward big tiddy tomboy who has trouble talking to people, because she has anxiety and of course, because of the cliched 'I look too scary to make friends' trope.

While the premise has been done to death in many other manga, Hitomi-chan has a certain charm of its own. The character design of the MC is pretty unique and likable. The overall art and other character designs are hit or miss most of the time though.

I don't get the hype for this one. So, quickly:
The story is meh. Bland. More like a slice-of-life rom-com. Everyday stuff that sometimes also gets some romantic tangents. Thats it. Yes, some of it is funny (it really made me laugh in the first chapters), some of it is quite romantic, but still nothing to write about (not even in a review). People around them do stuff for/with the main couple. There is no character development, nothing "heavy". Ok, maybe a little bit of character, but mostly its implied and with some low effort. She changed because she wanted to and because the people around ...

It just kept going, man.

The story is about the normal guy, suddenly finding himself interacting with a tomboy, shark teethed girl who's strong as hell. Shenanigans ensue.

I'm glad all the “Normal guy, girl with a surprise element” manga that I started reading years ago have been finishing up. One of two things usually happen. The story grabs its little premise, and throws it away when it finally ran its small course. The story continues to evolve, and explore the characters as people who change with time, and it becomes a good, proper story. The second one, is staying true to the premise far ...
