Description
The boy who sits next to Yokoi in class, Seki-kun, is always up to something at his desk. He manages to somehow play very elaborate games without attracting the teacher's attention. From dominoes, to shogi, to go, to mecha models, to playing with cats and more, he always has something new to do. Yokoi often finds herself getting reluctantly interested in his games, even though they always seem to end up getting HER in trouble with the teacher!

The manga was nominated in the 5th Manga Taisho Awards.

Read this when you're bored with action, romance, ecchi and sliceoflife
Really lighthearted gag manga, nothing is stretched out (so far) and it's a situaion where most of us can relate viz. mucking around in school
Really is a treat to read

I like Gag Mangas, but I rarely find one that I wish to read till the end.

Not that Tonari no Seki-kun is a simple gag manga - it is relentlessly innovative and funny. However, with little overarching plot or character development, I can't find it in me to read it through.

May be I will be back to check this, when I wish for a change of pace - but I am no longer going to be following this regularly.

I have no idea how this series is going to develop, but from the first two chapters alone I got a great laugh. The manga has this refreshing atmosphere and the art fits the series perfectly. The facial expressions are awesome as well.

It appears to be a class based slice of life and with the first two chapters there doesn't appear to be any hints of romance. In fact, based on the two chapters, I think it's safe to say that the two main characters are more antagonistic in their antics. Chapter length is short as well, but given the fact the plot isn't anything grand and it's focused on isolated events, it works well. It seems instead of trying to drag things out, each chapter is just as long as it should be.

With the first two chapters, it all appears to be the inner thoughts of the female character with a few whispered words to the male character, but he has yet to actually speak. I hope that in the future we get a peek at his head.
