Synopsis

University student Umi Asagi generously receives both presents and confessions from Kamibukuro-kun—a stranger who always wears a paper bag over his head. Despite his overly timid demeanor, he endlessly pursues the woman he loves most, following her anywhere she goes. However, her best friend views Kamibukuro-kun as a nuisance and his love as a stalking obsession. Ultimately, her companion strikes terror into Kamibukuro-kun, threatening him never to go near Umi again.

Like Umi's friend had hoped, Kamibukuro-kun vanishes into thin air. But all this time, Umi never believed that his acts caused her trouble; in truth, she looks forward to seeing his presence every day. When Umi backs herself into a corner, will Kamibukuro-kun come to her rescue?

A great rom-com!

This manga is just a bag of serotonin. It's straight to the point and easy to read with short chapters. It was wholesome and sweet that I found myself with a smile on my face every few minutes. There’s a little drama at the end but it’s not annoying. The storyline is unique since it's about a man who wears a paperbag on his head.

I loved the art style and Umi’s hair. The character designs are really cute. I never really like characters but Paperbag-kun was *chefs kiss*

If you’re looking for a cute, feel-good romance then give this a shot!

I started this manga thinking it was a shoujo parody manga, but instead I was pleasantly surprised by a sweet romantic story.

The male protagonist of this story is the real gem of this manga. Trust me, you'll love he after just a few pages!

I recommend it to anyone looking for something sweet, romantic and relaxing to read.

Spoiler
Let us be fully aware, that "mr. paper bag is in love" was axed very early by its publisher, which forced the mangaka to wrap up the story in a very unfullfilling way. We cannot judge what the mangaka wanted this to become, only what the final product is!

Aaand the final product is absolutely horrible. An autistic boy takes all experiences very litterally, and courts a girl he haven't seen in 10 years, while wearing a paper bag on his head. Not due to him being and uggo, or carrying a scar that the girl was responsible for, but because she worded her feelings with ...
