This is a really cute manga, I'm really glad I found it. It's the perfect mix of cute and funny. All of the characters are interesting and enjoyable, and the main couple is very cute.

The comedy and way the story moves reminds me a bit of Tanaka-kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge, but this one has more of a romance focus, and a softer sort of comedy. More of a chuckle than a burst out laughing. There's also a lot of nice friendship between the characters, and the main couple is supported by their friends, which is nice to see. The cast of characters is fairly ... solid, a good mix of different personalities that work well together. And I really like the dynamics between the main four or five characters.

The art is simple and clean, which I think fits the tone of the story very well. You won't find lots of flowery backgrounds or other screen tones that Shoujo manga is usually saturated in. It's cute and happy, and the facial expressions during comedy scenes are funny.

Overall, it's a lighthearted, cute, slice of life romance. No unnecessary drama or misunderstandings (at the time I'm writing this, I've read the first volume), just smooth sailing for our main couple. I find it extremely enjoyable, it's just a lot of fun to read. Cute couple dynamics, funny moments, lots of delinquents, good cast of characters and good friendship....I highly recommend it.

Soushi Souai can be categorazied as a typical fluff romance between a prim delicate school girl and a delinquent. The majority of the chapters released from the start up till the 40+ were somehow enjoyable, but the story could've been written better. The reason being there are too many gaps between events that viewers will have a hard time comprehending what's happening, causing them to go back and reread some chapters, only to find that they didn't really miss anything.

in regards to the character writing, which greatly contributes to the story, the characters didn't really have a solid foundation/ establishment. For example, there is ... little to know about Wakamatsu's(mc delinquent) past as a delinquent. Though it seems that the author seeks to write about them properly some few chapters into the future, it feels as if they're only dragging it on.

on a side note: The author really has a habit of creating annoying situations without any conclusions such as Megumi(main heroine) having a kouhai (that doesn't really show respect to wakamatsu) try to court her. In this situation, she even calls the kouhai cute.
^^^^^^^^ this part may seem subjective and personal already but I really found those chapters leaving a bad afterstaste as well as some frustration, because it seemed as if Megumi had no respect towards her boyfriend regarding the boundaries that their relationship should have with outsiders.

This story is cute, funny and romantic at first. There isn't much drama but when there is, it's solved rather quickly (at a good pace). However, the more you know about the male characters, the more you dislike them. It was light hearted in the beginning and now its just not as great.

Most of the story is okay, some parts will make you question the male lead's past (since he didn't really have anyone he truly liked until he met the female lead) but overall you will like all the characters. Especially the female lead. She is straight to the point and communicates.

Edit: I take ... this all back. As the story progresses, the story gets darker and the male characters are all (most) trash
