Story:
This is a story about pure childhood love, about how we behaved immaturely about our crushes when we in primary school, and how the characters relationships continue to develop over time, as they bond over their mutual obsession over games.
What really impressed me about the story was how the author managed to achieve such depth of character development, when the female lead NEVER utters a single word throughout the entire course of the manga. This makes the story cute and sweet, as the couple bond over games, and communicate through actions and expressions
Art: 8/10 (10/10 if you like chibi)
The art is decent, nothing too stellar, but good enough to tell the story.
I think the author uses a chibi art style, making the characters head's larger, so that he can show their facial expressions more clearly. A lot of the story telling comes from the subtle facial expressions that each of the characters make.
Character development 10/10
As mentioned, the author somehow develops the females lead well, despite her not speaking a single word.
Likewise, the male lead is well developed, with the reader being able to empathise with his thoughts an actions. He is far from perfect, yet very likeble.
Overall:
One of my favorite manga. A must read for anyone born in the era where you still needed to visit the arcade as a kid/teen.
