I caught up to the latest chapters in a few hours, this is a unique series. I saw randomly on various websites "Jirai nan" has been getting a lot of views within the past few months, so I gave it a shot myself.

This series is completely and utterly simple to the point where it works so well. Our MCs consist of a girl who is bold and brazen and a guy who is unraveling and learning about social experiences. No super serious stuff, adult things, or dramatic twists of any kind. It's only a mild light-hearted romantic comedy with two people changing together.

Jirai nan desu ka? Chihara-san is your typical "yankee girl x shy boy" rom-com. The art style is cute and fits the characters quite well.
The story is your average slice-of-life comedy manga with hints of romance, although in the later chapters the romance is more apparent. There isn't much of a clear plot since each chapter is so short, but it's still good enough to understand the direction of the story.
The side characters are also quite likeable.

It's not groundbreakingly good, but it's good enough for what it brings to the table. If you're a fan of trope-y slowburns, this is for you. If you ... want something refreshing, maybe leave this for a later date.

This is one of the worst mangas I have personally every read.

Everything is just so low quality I have absloutly no idea where to start.

Let's start with the story, boy sits to a girl that has rumors around her being "dangerous". throughout the entire story, we never see anything that warrants the "dangerous" label, you might say that the characters are being unjust towards her just like in any bullying/singling out trope, but we see absolutely zero reason for her to be left out in the class, this is a sign of weak writing. The author didn't portray in this state inside the class ... because of anything that happened in the past, it's just a shameless plot device for the author to let the main character feast on her alone.
Nothing in this manga will ever interests you, thankfully there aren't many chapters so far so I didn't have to suffer for that long, everything is so typical. Every overused trope in romance Manga is being relentlessly displayed here non stop, at one point, if you have read five or more romance mangas, you will be able to accurately predict what gonna happen in the next page.
There is no actual story to be invested in either, it's your sterotypical loner bozo Mc who the busty Mc slowly falls for, for simply existing.



There is nothing redeeming about this Manga, the art is one of the most mideocre and oversimplified mangas I have personally ever looked at. Nothing has any kind of detail at all. all the characters have 3-4 face expressions that are so recycled that I'm confident I can draw them from memory alone. If there is any effort put from the person drawing the manga, that would be him drawing the main heroine just so he can sexually appeal her, obviously he knew the plot wouldn't get him anywhere so he decided to out some effort into the girls fat breasts. Oh wait don't get me wrong, she actually doesn't look any good or any detailed at all, it's just, in comparison to the rest of the cast, she seems decently drawn.

One of the reasons I really despise reading manhwas is how lifeless everything displayed looks, from character expressions to backgrounds to the non-existing details. This Manga's art in particular was so undetailed that I double checked on whether I was reading a manhwa or not, the art is just that lacking.

As for the characters. The most lifeless overly clichéd characters I've seen. Loser Mc with no friends to exist happens to be next loser heroine with 1 friend only (waow). Heroine is wierd and busty and she becomes interested in the MC the moments he spouts half a word in her face.
