Since I started reading this manga I got hooked on it. I've never reading anything like it and I enjoy every minute of it. It's a well thought out manga that would leave you wanting more after reading each chapter

Im loving this series though I don't really care for his current girlfriend. Pretty much everyone else is better than her. Nozoki Ana is one of my top 3 fav perv manga. Kono S o, Mi yo! and Nana to Kaoru run close with it. The Art is fantastic and the characters are believable......rare IMO. Im pretty much sick of the Tsundere thing at this point. Its been done to death.....Yandere....Im still into.

Hes got a very rarely seen trait in manga now adays. That is self-control u will see what i mean by ch 17. Anyways here we have a guy whose the new guy around and moves into an apartment complex only to discover a hole in the wall and the naked girl behind the hole. Hilarity ensues. Unlike most main char that are righteous in the sense sex after marriage this guy isnt wait til u see his GF. Hes wishwashy but better then most in his position

I'm not sure if this series is good yet, I've read all the 89 chapters released up to now and found a lot of pros and cons but still can't decide whether it's good or bad in the end something just keep me wanting to read the next chapter to see how things will turn out although the last few volumes have been a little disappointing because it's focusing mainly on psychological drama ( mostly netorare ) and characters being "broken" and this made the series not advance in any direction whatsoever since all characters around the protagonists turn out to be either jerks with psychological issues or kind people that "break" when they find out about it and are discarded as support characters not making any appearance again even if they are on the same class as the protagonists. As of chapter 89 there was only one character which kind of keep his sanity and this would be the male protagonist's best friend but although he just asks for some time to forgive he doesn't make another appearance after that. The rest of the characters just disappear or "go back to hometown" or something like that... There are times when I wish the author would just progress the plot instead of always going around the same steps "Male protagonist starts new relantionship > All is good > People find out about the secret > Psychological drama > Male protagonist ends relantionship". I'm not gonna rate it but I'd recommend reading it yourself if you don't hate psycho drama.

critiquing manga works like Nozoki Ana is a bit agonizing. I was torn giving the manga a 7/10 because in my opinion, the drawing, plot, character depths were all present and yet; the manga still came up abysmally short of being great. I had a lot of expectations for this manga when the first few chapters came out in Japanese. To me, the story felt refreshingly new and the drawings itself felt clean and attractive. However, as the mangaka progressed through the story, the two protagonists became lost in an impossibly convoluted and unrealistic emotional drama. In just two volumes, the manga went from being promising to ordinary and unimpressive smut genre. its basically an alternative to a full blown hentai. I know that may sound harsh but it had to be said. Still, it deserves a read. the drawings are fantastic after all. In short the mangaka had the hook, line and the sinker, but he or she did not have the talent or the tenacity to reel in the audience with a great, continuing story.

It was funny, sad, & sexy. An enjoyable read through the entire thing.

Dispite its lenght of 13 volumes, this is a fast read.

Almost everything revolves around sex and if you're reading this in one go the sex scenes become kind of boring, but meaningful (inner)conversation takes place in most, which denied me to skip them

The drawing is average, but what impressed me at this manga is its ability to make me feel and question decisions in my life, it made me think and identify with some situations the characters went through.
Let's be honest, this won't go down in the anals of history as a great manga, mainly because you need suspension of disbelief on some things to enjoy it, else you'd get stuck in those little things and remain unable to enjoy what really matters.
Through all the garbage i read every day, it came higher than most. Some parts of it managed to actually surprise me and make me stop to think.

All these good things i said last untill the last volume, so if you want to enjoy this manga you can do yourself a favor skip that one cause the mangaka had to be drunk to end it like he did.

Nozoki Ana is a pretty good series considering that the story has everything heartbreak painful pasts sudden realizations but still I kinda hate the fact that the main character is so ignorant since all he did was ignore his feelings but it gave a sense of innocence coming from my perspective

the manga is nice and has some good twist and turns.


@Pandoreye self-inserting much eh? as if they would ever date your toxic ass lmao.

I really loved this manga all trough the end,
I think the author really created a great female MC,
A lot of feelings conveyed in a good way imo and it's very interesting as well

I loved the ending, and the last 2 volumes were very great imo,

Felt Great!
