Synopsis

Seventeen-year-old Kaede Seto only wants to be a normal teenager. Following a traumatic experience in middle school, Kaede and his two best friends transfer to a boys-only high school, hoping to start anew. Though he sets his sights on getting a girlfriend, Kaede finds it difficult to allow others close due to what had happened at his previous school.

As Kaede struggles to come to terms with his trauma, he begins to receive attention from Tsubasa Arisaka, a hopeless romantic attending an all-girls school. As an avid shoujo manga fan, Arisaka has always fantasized about a perfect love story for herself, but her life thus far has not taught her that relationships in reality differ from how they seem in fiction.

Tsubasa's affections spur Kaede to work harder to overcome the demons that continue to haunt him. Despite his resolve, it is not solely his personal issues that stand in the way of a happy ending for the two of them. Both Kaede and Tsubasa—immature in life and love—need to learn that real relationships are not without their own challenges.

Preliminary (54/? eps)
At the time of my reading this, I am 54 chapters deep. Therefore, this is not a true "review," in the conventional sense, so much as a recommendation to read something outside of your usual comfort zone. In order not to spoil your reading experience, I am going to keep things spoiler-free (in the literal sense) in all but the final paragraph of this review, as well as speak about the meta-narrative surrounding this type of story in a roundabout way.

Preliminary (22/? eps)
This is a deconstruction of the typical romance manga, exploring the darker side of romantic relationship. What if someone has baggage? What if there are misunderstandings that are more dangerous than they appear at first glance? Do men and women even need to date in the first place?

These questions and many more are answered in this alt-romance blowout. It can make you cringe with how uncomfortable you will feel, but that's part of its charm. Unlike most romcoms, this story is unafraid to showcase just how ugly interpersonal relationships can get. However, this difficult material is handled with patience and grace, giving every character the ...

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (35/? eps)
Spoiler
Sensitive boy is one of those mangas that it's good in concept but it stumbles on very crucial flaws that makes you feel a bit dissapointed.

Art: Very decent, there are some very good panels in this one and character's expression are very much decent and great. On the only thing that it's not that great is on those blacked-out traumatized faces. The first time impact it's decent and not a bother but when you see the same one 4-5 times it feels a bit jarring. Overall an 8/10

Characters: Semi acceptable main cast, while somewhat decent on the surface they pack a lot of inconcistencies that ...
