Description
From Omari's Sister:

"Pochama" is someone who likes soft and squishy things or someone who likes chubby people (A LOT).

This is about Tsugumi's and Tagami's progress as a couple.

My initial thoughts for this manga was how absolutely adorable Mugi was, besides it rare to see a shoujo manga with a chubby girl as the lead. This is a definite must read if your sick of shoujo stereotypes, and want a refreshing and cute story.

I do feel that this panders to the demographic that is chubby high school girls in Asia, but the "chubby-maniacs" mentioned in this manga do exist. It is interesting to see a rare topic like this chosen.

Oh, and it's also adorable at parts.
It also does have some really good points about accepting yourself and liking yourself for what you are.

It's a standard shoujo cupcake, but with a different kind of sprinkle on top.

Mugi's friends (and everyone else) are right, he is a bit creepy. But that doesn't stop the relationship between Mugi and Tagami from being pretty darn adorable. I feel that the issue of Mugi's weight is treated very well; yes, it is a plot device, but she isn't really treated badly for it. She does repeat her feeling that she felt as a chubby girl that she would never find love, which is sad. But not an untrue expression of how many overweight girls feel in HS. The skinship is the creepy part, but it's done that way on purpose to highlight Tagami's obsessiveness (his preaching to other males of the virtues of plumpness in chapter 2 is very amusing).

Yes, he is a bit bizarre, but there is no question that the attraction Tagami feels is not simply physical, but that he likes her for her as well, and the same in return. Thus far, he treats her very well, and she does the same for him. I do like his friend, though, who offers to give Mugi the number of a lawyer if she wants to sue Tagami for sexual harassment. lol.

The art is good, though the shinny ball thing isn't my favorite. And it's just generally super cute. I suggest giving it a try!
