my bad boy rep says no, but my serotonin says yes

okay, so i actually feel like this manga deserves to be in a more esteemed list, but i don't think it's high enough for my masterpieces list alongside steel ball run. i guess i have no choice but to put place baddie in here, even though i love it with all my heart. IT'S SO CUTE, MAN!

plain but adorable protag? check. stunning male lead? check. likeable love rival? check.

this is so underrated. everyone needs to step up their games. also, pleeease update!

i briefly considered putting this into my masterpieces list just because of how much this manga means to me, but i gotta be real, it just doesn't stand of the same caliber as steel ball run, i'm sorry (myself). still, i love this manga so fucking much. it's so dear to me and it's honestly such a comfort for me too. wait, shit, actually i'm probably gonna move this later.
