Honestly, all of her short stories are charming and funny. She might come up with something really unexpected and ridiculous, then end in a warm, happy note.
I thought each MC presented a relatable emotion or experience. Really enjoyed this.

omg, I can't even believe this exists. it's just so beautiful and I've cried so many times while reading. the characters were very reliable and precious. just amazing. it hit in a totally different level, it wasn't just a romantic story, it gave me hope about life and about myself being a close minded person. very cute. this manga screamed at me saying I'm valid as a human being and that there's nothing wrong with being who i am. there will be always someone who understands you, and maybe that person lives in a story. be strong, you will be happy!
