Description
Iwakura Mitsumi always had big dreams: to leave her small town, advance to a top tier university, and then contribute to the country before retiring back to her home town. So focused is she on her goal that she is oblivious to all the other ways she comes up short, much to the chagrin and concern of her friends and family. Can a naive country girl make it in Tokyo?

Light-hearted read

Art: 8.5/10
Easy on the eyes and mangaka has her own style I can easily distinguish from other mangas.
Story : 8.5/10 (so far til ch.52)
Story is light-hearted yet there are times when they pull at your heartstrings. 50+ chapters in and you can notice the growth they're experiencing as they move forward in their high school life: life, school, romance, it's all there.
I enjoy reading how they explore and broaden their horizons.
Personally, I felt that I have outgrown light reads that are in school set-up stories like this but it's nice to go back to reading ones like these every now and then. This is the type of manga I'll reread more than twice.

A classic in the making.

Cried my heart out. But I think that it was very wise for the mc to dump her bf, coz he's a terrible one. He needs to grow up, get over his traumas, before he gets into a serious relationship.
I love the mc, she encapsulated all the good and ideal as a youth.
This manga is great and I wish that it could follow the lives of the mc and her friends throughput college and afterwards. Love to see the mc how she will accomplish her goals.

Only 8 chapters have been out--but so far I am really enjoying this manga! It is definitely very refreshing, and all of the characters are unique and interesting. The main lead is awesome (always a plus!). I am really looking forward to more, because I think this manga is different, and I am intrigued to see where it is going next!

Plenty of promise

I really hope we get to see a full run of this manga. I'm only a few chapters in, but the MC is adorable and has the best facial expressions.

A refreshing story about youth and life.

I give it a high rating for now because the first Volume is such a breather. Mitsumi is a very adorable main character who standout as the lead. I can really tell this story isn't just about romance, it dedicate its plot on different perspective of many characters. Can't wait to see more.
