This manga right here is so sweet and heart warming. Compared to other slice-of-life style romance, this is by far one of the best already.

The main premise is about two students who are classmates and sit next to each other, Mie and Komura. Mie, since the beginning, has almost always forgotten her glasses or broken them in some way which makes it really hard for her to see. Komura is the one to always help her out since he sits next to her and worries about her.

Throughout the rest of the manga we see cute interactions between Mie and Komura, slowly building up their ... relationship as friends and possibly a romantic one. And that is what I adore about this manga. It's very simple, but the romance is so well done that I feel so happy by reading this. I hardly feel this level of cuteness in many manga, so this is definitely very special.

The art is nice and cute, which compliments how the characters act and how the story is paced. Also, there really isn't much story besides the main problem/plot of every chapter, being Mie is blind and Komura helps her. So don't expect it to be very compelling and innovative. Rather, it's refreshing and heartwarming. "It has a little something for everyone"

I highly suggest to read it if you want. It's easy to get into and very fast to catch up.

this series has now become my all time favorite, right next to Spy X Family

Story & Character: Both 10

I am grouping these 2 categories together cuz they go hand in hand

Kaede (the male MC) is crushing on Mie (the female MC). However, Mie is basically blind as a bat without her glasses, and she forgets them a lot. Since Kaede sits next to Mie, he offers to help Mie whenever she forgets her glasses. Gradually, the two becomes closer and closer.

Kaede may first come off as a typical, dense and easily embarrased male MC, but he is quite brave for a romcom MC at ... his age, as he follows through with a lot of (seemingly) embarrasing situations. Keep in mind that he is just a kid, and kids are quite shy about admitting their crushes (when I was a kid I would get flustered when my friends bring up my crush's name).

The romance is slow in this series, as Mie is kind of an airhead and does not understand relationships and such. However, it builds on really naturally, and you can see Mie slowly falling for Kaede as well as the story progress.

Art: 10
The art is good and cute. Not much to say.

Enjoyment: 10
I've been rereading this series over and over for the past few weeks whenever I am feeling down. Its quite fluffy, so its good for the soul.

Overall: 10
Its a really cute slice of life romcom and is really heartwarming. It's becoming one of my top favorite mangas and I really hope this series continues for a long time because I really see a lot of potential for it (and I want more fluffiness in my life).

This was a well-done, fantastic romance.

Art was very good; it was clean, crisp, and had a recognizable style.

Plot and development were excellent. It didn't feel like it dragged on too much. The side characters didn't hog entire arcs and were appropriately given a respectable amount of spotlight, development to support the main duo, and character to keep them somewhat interesting to not be forgettable the next time you happen to see them. The main duo's individual developments were acceptable. Rather than change each other drastically, the development instead focused on them covering for each other's shortcomings like forgetfulness or timidness to progress their relationship ... further - they are still as forgetful and they are still timid as they were in the beginning, but they make up for each other. The plot and development ticked off all the things I like and didn't tick off all the things I don't like.

The conclusion was very good. The final 10 or so chapters were just part of the conclusion in my opinion - Reminiscence, reflection, romance, plans for the future off the pages, and most importantly hope. Everything I want to see in a romance I saw in the leadup to the last chapter. I got a good serving size amount of what I wanted to see too. The leadup and conclusion of this romance manga were excellent.

This is a good example of an innocent and pure-love romance manga that ticks all the boxes that I expect to see in a romance. Highly recommended.

This story is whipped cream. Fluffy and sweet but it doesn't satiate.

Good:

The art is cute. The way the characters act is cute. The slice of life aspect is done well. The MMC is not dense about his feelings, and the FMC also is pretty good about this.

Bad:

On the other hand, we're told they are sixteen. These 70 chapters take place over the course of 6mo-12mo. However, they act and talk like they're twelve about 75% of the time, and they're also drawn like they're in middle school. I don't like this. If you want to write a story about highschoolers, make them look and act ... like it. If you want them to look and act like how they're drawn here, it should be about middle schoolers. This may not be a big deal to you, but it caused me to feel like the entire story was off.

Weird:

The MMC takes home the FMC's glasses one weekend when she forgets them at school. He seriously considers this an indecent and perverted action on his part. This is not made into a joke in the story, its not a set up, its serious on the characters part and bothers him for a few chapters while he has them over the weekend. I'm not sure what the author was going for, i think hyper innocence on the MMC's behalf, but its just off putting and weird. Its a running theme, and I didn't like it.

I think if you like something like Komi you'd like this. Its the same style of slice of life; cute but unrealistic and not really satisfying to read about. I personally think there are way better romcom's out there that are just as cute but actually have a story and more than minor character development.

i found a part of this manga on instagram so i decided to look for it, and that was one of the best decision i've made in my life.

At first i thought it'll be just another plain romcom coming from a romcom reader since the nisekoi days, but turns out this manga was something else on wholesomeness. you can't really know what to expect from it.

It's a classic middle school romcom with a lot of monolouge from the protagonist but you just can't get bored by his act. I wasn't trying to overrating this manga but this is it, I'm not lying when I say ... that this manga worth every second of your time so be sure to check it out!!

Trust me when i say that this is something else

We're reaching the fun part, It's gonna get much better but also sad because it maybe ending.

But this is truly one of the cutest manga I've ever read. I highly recommend reading this when you have free time. It's super wholesome.
The character and the story is just good. It's not boring, it's not cliche. This manga is different from the others in it's genre.

The setting might be common but the execution is really good. The 2 main character alone is enough to make me rate this highly. They make progress, they hesitate but soon build up the courage to finally confess (Unlike some other MC).

10/10 ... Would recommend this to a friend.

I was bored, so I wanted to read manga, I didn't decide what genre I wanted to read but I randomly saw this manga and decided I'd give it a go cuz it looked cute.
I am so glad I read this. This is a super wholesome manga about a dude who likes an airhead girl, yes very common troupes but what made me fall in love with the manga is the spectacular way the main characters are written. The main dude is a very beautiful soul as you will gradually see in the span of the manga and the girl is also a spectacular and ... cute person. This manga is set in middle school so you will see the characters grow up, and it's so beautiful. It was as if I was one of their guardians watching them grow.
The amount of wholesomeness is unreal. My heart is too full from this manga.
DO READ IT, YOU WON'T REGRET!

*Rapid Review*

It's a low 8/10. This is the peak of wholesome romcom for middle-schoolers, providing a believable romance for such a tricky genre as they are too inexperienced due to being young yet old enough to realise it's love. Some manga with very young romance is either too mature or too childish, but this hits everything perfectly and believably. The art is great, the romance is butterfly-inducing, and the story progression is natural.

Though just don't expect much scenery changes, the majority of the manga happens in a single classroom, leading to a repetitive binge reading experience, but a solid one or two chapter per day ... experience.

I'm NOT a contrarian, and if your opinion differs, be civil. Your opinion is as valid as mine. Don't rate this as "confusing" just because you disagree with my view, instead, criticise the actual writing of the review. That's what it's there for. Don't be a child. Thank you for reading my rapid review, have a nice day/night!

It was one of the best romance mangas I've ever seen and I can even say that it is the best.

For me, what makes this manga really uniqe compared to others is its characters and the devolopment of the story. Even though it includes misunderstandings just like any other romance mangas do, the story still gradually devolops and our main characters start to realize some things.

It also talks about issues like lack of self confidence which makes the manga really relatable for us as well. This manga is not only showing us the wholesome relationship between two middle-school students but also shows us ... the daily life problems that most of us have especially in our relationships.

For me, only disadvantage is that, Manga doesn't focus on the side characters. We do not know much about them since it only focuses on our two main characters which might make the manga a little bit boring.

But still, it is a really wholesome and funny manga that should be read by all romance manga readers.

This Manga perfectly portrays the innocence and mystery one can get themselves up to. Tropes are either perfectly fitting or flipped on their heads to make for a wonderful balance of story telling. The story's main plot points hit perfectly as they progress the narrative enough to not feel stagnant while also not skipping a step or two and losing its grip. The story's sub or side plots are too cute and wholesome to really call repetitive or lazy. The main male, Komura, is your typical light hearted and reserved MC but that doesn't mean he can't take the next step when necessary. The main ... female on the other hand, Mie, is an adorable MC that is actually dynamic due to the many (plausible and fair) scenarios she is faced with Komura due to her eye sight or lack there of. Overall, it's a wonderful read that, for now at least, tells the heart warming story with the right length and story beats and it will not take up much of your time even though you will yearn for it to do so afterward.

10/10
I always recommend this manga to whoever I met IRL that likes to read manga love story, The author showing us each chapter how he keep falling deeply in love with her in every chapter.
The art is amazing, hoping in the future we can see it get animated.
Been reading it since pandemic and waiting for every chapter monthly or finding people to discuss it with. First time in my life that I want to reach and support the author so bad and praise her for the amazing story.
Would keep reading and help it reach more people.

Stumbled upon this gem, got to a point where I was screaming like a fangirl every chapter, here we go:

10/10 in everything, why? Because:

This is a slice-of-life manga that has a realistic progression of a relationship. No gimmicks, no other convenient plot device to push two people together, nothing. Just a boy who likes a girl that forgets her glasses. Friends at the start, and somewhat develops into something more naturally.

The manga itself is so wholesome that you can't stop grinning after reading a few chapters, the interaction between the two is so cute that you can't help but wonder what will happen next in ... future updates.

Kaede is a shy boy and a lovable dork. Ai (Mie-san) is also the same with or without the glasses.

It's that, the whole setting of this manga is really cute, it captures the idea of an innocent crush between two middle schoolers as they spend time and learning with one another.

Overall, I really recommend this manga to anyone who wants a normal slice-of-life, innocent, romantic subtext manga. It's worth the read.

This Manga is really cute😍, its bad for my heart, really!! I really Recommend this to all of you.

The Mc is a Great man, not a typical Mc that is an pervert or something, literally be one of my favorite romance manga now.

I think you guys will enjoy this too, especially the single one's (like me)😭😭😭

But this is truly one of the cutest manga I've ever read. I highly recommend reading this when you have free time. It's super wholesome.
The character and the story is just good. It's not boring, it's not cliche. This manga is different from the others in it's genre.

The setting might ... be common but the execution is really good. The 2 main character alone is enough to make me rate this highly. They make progress, they hesitate but soon build up the courage to finally confess (Unlike some other MC).


10/10 Would recommend this to a friend.

since finishing it, i've viewed megane as the inferior but more popular koume romcom compared to tonari no onee-san. to me, the latter is just a fucking masterpiece, demonstrating extremely realistic, detailed, admirable character growth in just 4 volumes. despite reading the whole thing, personally i did not enjoy megane as much as i thought i would, as i feel it's too melodramatic for a middle school romance at times. the "fluff" everyone looks forward to in this manga became like a miasma of mild cringe (although this may be because i have mild sensitive young man syndrome)

towards the end of it's lifespan i ... lowkey started to detest it to a degree as i literally thought to myself reading the last chapter "dude i am just sick of this" but, personal feelings aside, it truly is good and i respect it for that. all of koume's works give me very visceral reactions good or bad, and i hate to say it but her characters have had spellbinding levels of rental space in my head. 6/10 didnt enjoy it a lot but i respect it. did i reread this at all? no. did i rip this from a 4chan post i made? yeah
