    MANGA: Endou-kun no Kansatsu Nikki

    November 19, 2016 / No Comments

    Endou-kun no Kansatsu Nikki – Hayakawa Nojiko

    Because of changes in seating arrangements, high school student Tsuda ended up behind the quiet and expressionless Endou. Their interaction is born from a trivial incident, and he begins to see Endou who he has never gotten to know before. That mole, slender nape, and soft hair. The subtle faces that he makes and little changes in his attitude. But Tsuda, who used to be indifferent about others and never made any deep connections, now feels impatient about the distance between him and Endou, who he has been gradually getting closer to. What on earth is drawing these feelings?

    When I started reading this, I was pretty meh about the whole thing. I mean what was so special about this Endou guy? Sure he is insanely cute with a mysterious aura but I had come across characters like this before. And then it happened. That big moment…right in the middle of the train station! This has one of the hottest kisses in manga. They were so pure and sweet! Plus I really love it when the author shows the perspective of each person. Oh, and the artwork is lovely.

    Yozora no Sumikko de – Hayakawa Nojiko

    When a former senpai of his comes back into his life after 11 years, Hoshino is surprised. He becomes confused and slightly terrified after the senpai finds out that Hoshino has kept a pen that he gave him after all these years, and then kisses Hoshino.

    A story about feelings that just won’t go away, this volume has lots of drama and a bit of humor. It’s a nice drawn manga that ends with an awkward proposal.
