I don't usually get attached to non-linear SOF stories bc it always feels so mundane and nothing special, though i would still think it's a good read. Restart wa Tadaima is somewhat similar, but I like how subtle and sweet the progression of the MCs are. It feels natural and poignant, truly a lovely read!

Mc wanted to give a love confession to his childhood best friend, but accidently sent it to her crush instead! He didn't back down on the confession, and soon fell in love.... One of the most cutest and original story regarding the highschool romance genre, and author is very lgbt friendly too!!

A funny short about a bisexual guy who lost all hope of living, saved by a slasher-looking character who developed a crush on him. The two then proceeded to live happily ever after. Forgive me because I just like wacky tropes and comedy, so this is going in rec~

See You Later, Mermaid is a heart-throbbing story about a boy who has the power of the sea through his voice that could manipulate other's thoughts. This story really shows how much the MCs cares for each other through its backlogs. Truly a beautifully crafted storytelling.

Ito and Nishi everyday walks to school following a straight line (literal), until they crossed path with each other. The pathways takes them further to a budding relationship. I wish there were more mangas like this, that just shows the progression of growing up queer. This story is contained and lovely, like flowers in a vase.

'No-name' meets 'What-The' when What-the, the floral arrenger finds out the mirror in his room travels all the way to another land. I'm debating giving this a 'good' or a so-so. I didn't like some aspects of it but I can't deny that I like it more than not, and I do appreciate the middle-eastern rep not getting fetishized for once.

I adore the way Takamatsu Misaki write slice of life stories. Its this subtle way she writes that breathes life into the characters she created, and I always love slice of life stories that is not sugarcoated nor romanticised, but shows reality as it is. It can still be romantic and meaningful. It shows itself in this work, for one.

Comments: the ACTUAL /pos /neg tagging
What happens when the most negative guy ever dates the most positive guy at school? This story is definitely with a romcom-like concept- but it has heart. The two are very cute and supportive of each other, only wanting the other to be happy. Such a fluffy story!!

Koi wa Kamen features a school-deliquent who constantly frequents a children's superhero show. I always has a soft spot for superhero romcom genres, and this one is SO.. just fluffy and sweet. Also all the characters within it is lovable, I love this story.
