This manga doesn't only tackle the problems one faces till they get a girlfriend, but also focuses on the misunderstandings they get while dating. It stretches itself a lot till marriage which is a first for me as in most of the romance manga that I have read, they start and end in the school itself, never to be seen yet again. It's as if there is no life outside school. Some mangas try a little different ending by giving a time skip, which is kind of infuriating. This manga really blew my mind. It had everything you can think about 'romance' and even more. As the manga follows more than a single couple, it can be a bit distracting but there were even more problems portrayed due to it. But, due to there being so many characters, the story progression felt very slow till about 70% of the manga is done and dusted. Normally, whenever new characters are introduced, it feels as if the new character is being used to develop the main characters only to be forgotten once their arc ends; this manga didn't do so. It gave all sorts of time a character needed to fully bring out their inner feelings and perspectives which is seen very less usually.
I am subtracting a point from the overall rating just because I feel that some of the other characters could use some more time. The start felt utterly slow and the ending felt very premiumly rushed. This doesn't change the fact that this manga is probably the best read you will get if you purely want to focus on the "rom-com" genre.
Conclusion: Do yourself a favor and go read this.
