Synopsis

Niina Aoyagi is an 11-year-old girl who claims to be in love with Atsurou Itami, a man 15 years older than her. In Niina's past life, she was a girl named Chitose Amamiya, who was infatuated with the same person when they were middle school students. Before Chitose's death, the two had made a promise, that Niina intends to fulfill while hiding the precious memories from her past. Can Niina heal the wounds in both their hearts?

I directly love these cover.. Very cute art and their synopsis interested me..

First, this story kinda strange to me. it mean, why Niina still remember her past? How to explain this while she too young for know everything that no longer excist... but, I decided to ignore it & just focus for story....

From the beginning, she meets the old boyfriend from her past life, so that's the running plot in the start. I thought that the whole manga would be about Niina as an eleven-year-old girl, but there is a time skip right after chapter one, which was surprising but well done. It made the story much more enjoyable. After reading the first chapter I think many people would drop the manga, thinking it to be about a silly little girl pining over an older man, but it really does get better. I liked her as an older girl in high school.

For example, the mc realizes her immaturity and reflects on it. The male character is very smart and understanding too, and lets the mc find her own path in life. The other characters are also well developed. The "past life" part is actually read more

I'd been on the hunt for a good Shoujo manga, before this story I read a few boring ones that didn't leave much of an impression on me. I came across this one and read the reviews (all that highly praised this manga btw) So I decided to pick it up and read it AND BOY I"M SO HAPPY I DID.
Hajimari no Niina made me ~almost cry (I sucked it up because I was reading it at work) I'm not crazy about romances with a huge age gap, at some point in the manga I was rooting for another guy, but I quickly ended read more
