Since there aren't any reviews for this manga, I thought I'd write a short one.

Story 8/10
I'm only at chapter 5, so I can't comment much about the story, but so far there hasn't been much drama (which is good) and the fmc has a special circumstance (no spoilers but you learn about it in the first chapter) which makes the story slightly more unique.

Art 10/10
The art is great, it really fits the tone of the manga. I especially like the cover art for vol 1 where there are stars in the fmc eyes.

Character 8/10
The progression between the 2 MCs has been pretty fast and they ... are very cute together.

Enjoyment 10/10
I've really enjoyed reading this manga, it's very fluffy.

Overall 9/10
Recommended if you want to read a cute romance manga without any drama or rivals (so far)

Edit: IT'S GETTING AN ANIME!!!

After only five chapters, I can tell this will be a GREAT series! Not at all surprised that this is getting an anime adaptation come 2023.

Quick premise. Most of these details are revealed on the first chapter so I do not consider these as spoilers.

MC is a competent mangaka down on his luck a bit financially and is also taking care of a couple of siblings to boot. His latest deadline is near. In comes the FMC sent by his editor which has a bit of a fantastical backstory (but easier to swallow after a few chapters.) The FMC is what they call a ... "god-tier" assistant and helps MC beat the deadline. After finishing the project, there's a bit of an accident (NOT SEXUAL) which causes them to be "bonded" with our MC getting the short end of the stick. He cannot harm or even touch the FMC in any way else he will physically suffer. He cannot be separated from the FMC further than a short distance else he will suffer as well. She opens up that she left her island to look for genuine love. They both agree their accidental bonding doesn't favor either of them and will try to work around it while trying to possibly break it.

If you didn't notice yet, except the out of this world backstory of the FMC, everything about the premise isn't taken to extremes. These are two level-headed adults that are trying to deal with the situation they found themselves in. There is no love at first sight here. It's a slow but pleasant burn. Their development is gradual and very interesting because none of it is cartoonic and played for fun, though the situations themselves will pop out some chuckles from the reader.

This is definitely a series to watch out for not only because it's good but because we're assured to see a lot more story coming in the near future.

This review may contain some content from chapter 1
I had a thought of reading this for a while but there weren't that many chapters so I thought that I should've waited a bit more till there's at least a decent amount to read, but the cover and the title of the manga caught my attention. I really wouldn't have ever given a thought that it would've been a "manga" Manga, I don't really have any complaints though since I loved reading and watching Bakuman and nozaki-kun.

Overall: 7

Story: 6
As soon as i started reading it, the manga went into a route I've seen a lot ... of times before but one thing different about this manga is that the mc provides the family by becoming a Manga author instead of a business man unlike every manga that starts off with a route like this. I have also fairly enjoyed this manga because of the Peaceful atmosphere.

Art: 8
The art was wonderful, very smooth, soothing and its just like a manga with good art, I really cant say anything else except for saying it was smooth and good.

Character: 5
The male lead is a manga author who earns money for his siblings School and University funds because of they have lost their father at a very young age. The Female Lead is a beautiful blonde woman who is a Princess from another Planet and so on we get the 2 supporting siblings which makes the full slice of life set

Enjoyment: 7
I had a good time spending 20-30 mins on this short manga :)
