I don't have quite the best experience when it come to shoujo, so when I went into this I did not have much expectations. It was a two part one-shot, I don't know what that is because if it is two parts, how is it a ONE shot? But nonetheless, it was 2 chapters so I thought it to give a read. It was half-good, half-bad.
I am a "save the good for the last" type of guy so let's go with the bad part. And the bad part it is that it is shoujo. It has weird behaviours common to the genre, like the male
...
behaving oddly off and cause I am one too, can't help but cringe at his actions. I know that shoujo itself means "teenage girls", that it is not focused to what male audience prefers, but still cause I read this one shot, I had to point that out. Also the first chapter was basically similar to most of the other shoujo mangas out there and this type of story is all too common in smut mangas, so that is one thing more. I don't know if this manga is a smut too.
Now onto the good part which is introduced with the second chapter, as it has some backstory for the boy, and this single addition made me separate it from the other clichéd clutter. Yeah maybe it was not that much of a deal, but that single thing gave the character a depth, even if only a little bit. Also, thank god the FL is not a pushover and thank god it did not go the clichéd way. I mean it did go the cliché way, girl ends up with the boy, but it did atleast something different.
If you are a fan of the genre, then sure go for it, but if you are a male audience like me and do not personally enjoy this, then I would advice you to give a bit of a thought on whether to read it or not.
