Man, this was comfortable... It's the simplest concept possible, pure school slice of life, but somehow I couldn't stop smiling all the way through.

The art isn't anything special, though I personally like these individual styles that aren't just basic shonen/shojo. It still manages to convey the characters well and that's what's important.

The story is suuper basic, uses as much tropes as it can, but I didn't mind them. The chapters we're short enough so the scenes didn't drag and the jokes landed.

The characters are the weakest part here imo, they serve their purpose well but could be literally anyone. The two friends of Nakajima might ... as well be called Friend 1 and Friend 2. And only Friend 2 gets one page of hinting on a development with one of the girls. But the manga is short so it can be forgiven a little.

All in all, I personally enjoyed this one, it was like a little breath of fresh air. 8/8

This manga is, well, not very interesting if I have to be honest.

It plays on the idea of a girl with a scary demeanor who is actually really sweet and blushes easily. Not a very uncommon trope but the whole series is placated around this and it gets stale at times. Of course there are the romantic moments that really shine but that could be said of any partially-well written romance manga and I don't find it to be anything special.

All characters except Tanaka-san, the title character, are rather forgettable to the point where the night after reading it I've forgotten all of them. Along ... with this the art isn't anything to gawk at and it's by definition the average romance manga in my book.

There's nothing stopping you from reading it but there's nothing that compels me to recommend it to anyone.
