Hinata to (and) Mikasa is a short but sweet collection of fragments of Mikasa and Hinata's high school lives. Its chapters follow a mostly chronological structure, but each chapter can be read as a short story with something of value to take away from it.

The story addresses the nuisances and struggles of social interactions at an awkward stage of life, with awkward wounds from early childhood that at this point in life are either scarring or developing. It is generally a feel-good story with a hint of comedy, especially through the interactions of both of the main characters, who have very contrasting and clashing ... auras.

The story hints at Mikasa's past social struggles, and only gives brief and ambiguous context of her present situation at home. Towards the end of the story, there's also a brief but light-hearted open ending that insinuates a development in Hinata's and Mikasa's personas, as they both inherited each other's best traits over time.

The author presents the reader with art that is not only alluring, but also adequate to the comedic aspect of the story. Overall, the story is short but beautifully wrapped, giving the reader a very pleasant feeling along the read through a graceful take on friendships in the early years of life.
