Last: ch 45 @ otakumole

Finished @ ch149

Not that realistic being 15 but I just imagined them a bit older than that.. While there were a lot of times where it got frustrating or repetitive, I did enjoy and realized some aspects of romantic relationship here. The art is kinda old style but the guys were quite attractive too. Girls have the usual half-face sizes eyes too so yeah. Also, it helped that the guy was a stick to one type even though he's popular. Well, he's on the cold side so he appears to be disinterested overall but I appreciated how he was also making efforts for her.

ch9 Currently has until ch12, but decided to stop at ch9 because I don't think it will be continued and the story so far was already quite satisfying. I mean, if I continue, there might be another arc that wouldn't be complete since translations stopped. Alam mo 'yun? Mabibitin lang ako. lol. So far, this is better than the first mostly because of their age. And well, it's interesting to see an early marriage plan for now, because if it were the old me, I would've thought that was really romantic and all, but now, I just don't think it's practical because I realized marriage is beyond LOVE. Especially at their age... Sure, Uehara's pretty matured, but he missed out a lot from his youth due to him being a workaholic to survive. I worry that this could really be an issue later on.. Also, Nao is still very immature so it's quite hard to see how she'll cope with marriage life.. Mostly it's because I get frustrated when she spends too much on things she doesn't really want (mostly just get swayed by other people's opinion)... Errr I just think it takes two matured adults willing to compromise to make a relationship (especially a marriage) work. Uehara's very busy with school and work so he barely has time for Nao but I like that even if it's like that, he remains faithful. It's a bit worrisome that he hangs out with girls nonchalantly when they offer him treats to food though, because it could totally be taken advantage of later on. lol.

super insta-love but oh well, still cute.

It's just one of those stories that make you respect a guy, especially being a teacher. Unlike most student x teacher stories, Kazuma was actually mature enough to wait for Fumino to graduate before going further. I also really liked that Kazuma as a teacher wasn't thr popular type that would threaten Fumino more bec of his fangirls. It makes you think it's realistic somehow (except of course the saving parts lol) and make you believe in true love.

Finished 5/28/18. TOO MANY LOOSE ENDS. IT'S FLUFFY AND ADORABLE, BUT PLOT HAS GONE ASTRAY. THE MYSTERY AND SUPERNATURAL ELEMENTS WERE JUST BRUSHED UNDER THE RAG AND WENT ON WITH THE CUTIE ROMANCE. ERRR... QUITE DISAPPOINTED, REALLY.
