You pretty much get what you should expect.

It's a series of yuri one-shots. Overall, they follow a pretty light-hearted theme, and obviously (since we're talking about one-shots), you won't see too much character depth or dramatic story development. That being said, most of them were actually pretty good, and managed to tell and wrap up the story nicely within the given time.

I feel that some collections of one-shots have an issue where the different stories or characters just feel like re-skins of one another. However this is not the case here. The characters, visually as well as from their behaviour, are all across the ...

Otome Danshi is about Mayu, a shy girl who is scared of men and Yuki, a boy who is into cross-dressing (how convenient!).

One thing you should be aware of; cross-dressing plays a big part in this, at least visually. For a vast majority of the time, the male lead Yuki is dressed up as a girl. Together with his mannerisms the manga often gives off some Yuri vibes. However, he is still very much a boy, and shows that on many occasions as well, especially since his female mannerisms are just a part of the whole cross-dressing getup in a way.

The general story-telling reminded me ...

A couple, arranged for marriage by their parents. Unfortunately, they don't get along at all... or do they?

Overall, you won't find anything revolutionary. It's a typical romcom setting, focusing nearly entirely on the couple and their interactions, in relatively short and in pretty episodic feeling chapters. But personally, I don't think you need to reinvent the wheel for something to be enjoyed.

The characters are both somewhat tsundere. Already in the first chapter it's made clear that they both have in interest in the other, however both unable to either notice or approach it properly. But, pretty much in every chapter their facade starts to crumble ...

For the most part, I think it's a pretty sweet story. It's relatively short, with 24 chapters in total, so it's a rather quick read.

The story follows the two young adults, Daisuke and Matsuri. They were very close childhood friends in the past, but got separated and are now reunited at university. And as you'd expect, love is blooming between them.

Character-wise they're nothing out of the ordinary. Daisuke is pretty much your typical nice guy, Matsuriis more of a tsundere, although nothing extreme.

Slight spoiler ahead.

The only thing I really didn't enjoy was the female Senpai love-rival. She just came across as overly pushy, ...

Pretty much what you would expect from a typical romcom in that genre. High-school, an unusual boy x girl coupling, light-hearted with funny interactions between them. It mostly feels episodic, although the manga makes it already very clear early on that there is some romantic interest involved too, so there may also be a chance for actual development further down the line.

The characters should be no surprise, considering the title. A boy (Oobayashi) with a ridiculously loud voice, so that he's basically screaming all the time, paired up with a girl (Komori) with a practically non-existent voice. Apart from those aspects I would consider both ...

TL;DR: You like wholesome, cute fluff? This is definitely one of the single most wholesome manga you will ever find. Honestly, if you just need something chill to feel good, this.

The low average rating honestly surprised me a bit. Of course, this type of manga is not for everybody, but really, just read the first few chapters and you'll know how it's going to be for the rest of it. There are no surprises, plot twists, drama or anything, just a whole truckload of cuteness.

Now, the basic gist is nothing new; high-school, girl x boy romance. However, two things made this really enjoyable for me:
1) ...

Overall, I would say it is an okay read. Nothing spectacular, but if the genre speaks to you then it's good enough to spend some time on.

The title basically already describes the entire story. It is exactly that, he wakes up, suddenly a high schooler again, and pretty much the first thing he does is to confess to his teacher, who for whatever reason accepts. Now, if you look at the art style of the female lead, it's obviously going to be somewhat ecchi and fanservice, however not over the top in my opinion.

The story in its grand scheme doesn't make too much sense, but ...

Really loved it.

The manga tells 4 stories in parallel, all happening in the same universe so that they somewhat overlap and interact with each other, but only marginally. (This means that you can also easily read one story after another!)


The basic premise of each story is the same; a romantic story between two people who knew each other in their past lives, but each with their own spin to it. All of them are very light-hearted though, and purely focused on the development of the respective characters with barely any focus on other characters at all.

TL;DR: If you like light-hearted, cute romance, go for it.

I'm a complete sucker for sweet fluffy romance stories. This, however, is absolutely glorious in my opinion and trumps many others. It's light-hearted, hilarious, and just lovely.

The interaction between their characters is awesome, every time they are with each other is just like a refreshing breeze. They are fun, they are both no pushovers, adorable together but still not cringy. At the same time, they both have their own stories and past to explore, with him about his scary looks and scar, and her about her visual impairment.

There's really nothing negative I can say about it. The progression feels awesome, not hasty nor forceful ...

Funny, loveable characters, slow-ish development.

Take two polar opposites, an open, outgoing and stylish gyaru, and an easily flustered, shy, old-fashioned outsider who is into doll- and clothes-making. Even though they sound so extremely different, they click so incredibly well with each other, and I just love their interactions throughout the entire manga. The female lead goes against every stereotype of a gyaru, and does not show any restraint when it comes to showing what she likes, thus being able to completely nerd out over some things.

The manga takes some tangents when it comes to clothes and cosplay, so if you are absolutely not interested in ...
