Synopsis

Despite being adjacent to one another, Chidori Public High School and the all-girls Kikyo Private Academy seem to exist in two different worlds. While the latter boasts an immaculate reputation and favors students from wealthy backgrounds, the former is a nest for dim-witted delinquents. Everyone at Kikyo harbors a deep hatred for their Chidori neighbors.

Sixteen-year-old Rintarou Tsumugi is a student at Chidori whose intimidating face leads people to avoid him. Rintarou pays no mind to this, as he is content with his group of friends. However, there is something he has not told them yet: sometimes, he helps out at his family's cake shop.

One day at work, Rintarou sees a customer at a table, but she runs off before he can talk to her. The next day, he receives an apology from the girl, Kaoruko Waguri, who explains that she did not run away because of his appearance and that she believes Rintarou is a kind-hearted person. Although he is not used to Kaoruko's bright personality, Rintarou looks forward to forming a friendship with her. There is just one obstacle that stands in his way: Kaoruko is a Kikyo student!

Hey! Just ignore the bad and mixed reviews. I’m here to tell you that if you're into a romance filled with emotion, funny moments, good character development, and a light plot without any intimate scenes, this manga might be just for you. From my personal experience, I’ve been reading a lot of action-packed manga with heavy twists and complex stories for a while, but taking a break from those and reading something wholesome like this makes me feel great!

I love ts but holy lord, every character is an overly saccharine bundle of honey, always apologising for shit that doesn't matter or thanking profusely for holding the door open for them. the manga's a fun read but you'll have to accept that this doesn't take place on Earth, it takes place in the fuckin halmark christmas universe where no one's an asshole in any way, at all. even kaoruko's kikyo friends come around eventually. if this manga had a few characters that acted like fucking human beings once in a while it'd be a bit easier to read with eager eyes. but some of ...

This series is so monotonous and flat that the only way it has to convey the emotions of its characters is through words, this series doesn't trust you as a reader/viewer and your ability to read between the lines, it tries to be emotional most of the time through words and that feels so artificial and forced at the same time, the emotions of the main character and his progress/development in only 20 episodes is excellent as well as the communication with his parents, in my opinion that's the only thing that is really worth it.

Words are not enough to express how good something or ...
