A genuinely good harem manga with interesting characters and wholesome vibes.....kinda hard to find right? Well this manga here has practically the same premise as some others in the genre like Love Hina, The Temple of Amagami etc, our main character gets to live with the main female leads and even though they were adverse to it first, they slowly start to change and build relationships with the main character.
Then you might think, "Why should I read this one then?"
Firstly, even though in the beginning it might seem the same as the other ones in the genre, the story is more engaging. ... Our main character, the son of a prodigy is a completely normal person with no special talents inherited from his mother. So, he has been treated as a disappointment. On the other hand our female leads, the 3 Mikadono sisters are prodigies on their respective fields. So watching our MC help the female characters on their way to success and strengthening the bond between them feels really refreshing.

Secondly, This manga doesn't waste your time by dragging the story using completely unnecessary troupes. And guess what, it doesn't depend on completely unrelated ecchi stuff either which came as a total surprise to me. The pacing of the story is really good it never feels like you are reading a chapter that doesn't effect the story whatsoever.

Thirdly, the characters. They are relatable, each and every character is developed well by this point (C41) and they are not irritating. They don't make stupid decisions for the sake of dragging the story out and worth your time.

Lastly, the story itself is laid back, refreshing and really wholesome, the conversations are not boring nor hard to follow. I genuinely had a really fun time reading the manga and if you are interested enough to have read this boring review, please give it a go.....

"If the first few chapters are not that good, are you willing to give it a chance?"
If you are then you might find something really enjoyable. Well that's explaining this webtoon in short. As for what the story is about, let's elaborate the synopsis a little. Our female lead Gabin is being bullied, but it's kinda because she wants to be bullied. Why? Cuz she wants her CEO grandma's attention. Anyway, to protect Gabin, our male lead, Tae Ung- a very talented and good looking boy whos' family was in a financially dire situation, was appointed as a bodyguard, but Gabin must not know ... that he is her bodyguard. So Tae-ung gets transferred to Gabin's school and the job must be done as a classmate.

That's the premise, and an unique one at that. But Gabin and Tae-ung both were kinda annoying in the first few chapters, because Tae-ung instantly trying to befriend Gabin instantly and Gabin trying to avoid and sometimes mistreat him because she thought Tae-Ung was trying to get close to her because she was rich (Which isn't entirely wrong).

After this point, the story starts getting good. The previously annoying Gabin starts to become a likeable character, (I don't want to tell the reason because it would spoil the fun) Tae-Ung gives her a hand at this development and their interaction becomes really enjoyable. We are introduced to Doha, a girl who has feelings for Tae-Ung and is willing to change for his sake. And she makes the entire story much more fun. The other side characters start to get more important and play their part in Tae-Ung and Gabin's relationship. Gabin starts to have feelings for Tae-Ung. A love triangle develops and you are constantly itching to know more and its not a feeling that every Manga or Manhwa can give you.

So overall, this Manhwa actually deserves a 7+ rating and a little more popularity. If you are looking for a Romance manga and have already completed the good ones, give this a shot. I can guarantee, it won't be a waste of time. I've read upto 55 chapters and the story just gets better and better. An easy 8 out of 10 for me.

What do you seek from a Romantic Comedy show? I ask....

A Great Story?
From the very beginning, Kaguya Sama has been delivering an outstanding and really enjoyable tale of two great characters trying to make each other confess. And it's this season when the story reaches it's peak. All the build up for the last two seasons made every moment of this show more enjoyable. You are itching to know what happens next, what they will do next. And in this season the focus, from the very beginning was completely on Shinomiya and Shirogane, although Ishigami, Ino and other characters like Fujiwara, Tsubame Koyasu, Maki had ... their fair share of great moments. And the ending to this great story (For this season at least) was something really really special, breathtaking, amazing. Giving the story less than a ten on ten will be a crime.

A little bit of comedy?
Then this is where this show excels the most (In my humble opinion). It doesn't depend on cheap fan service, or boring misunderstandings to create a comedic vibe. The interactions between characters is what makes you smile and sometimes laugh hard. But this comedy never diverts the show from it's original purpose. That is comedy aspects get a 10 out of 10.

Lovable Characters?
The Characters called Kaguya Shinomiya and Miyuki Shirogine are just so likeable that you don't know who to root for in the contest of making other confess. And the development of Ishigami from the previous season is visible in a great way, we are getting more and more attached with Ino. Fujiwara still never fails to make me laugh. And even Characters like Tsubame Koyasu and Maki are really lovable.
I know, if a completely new show dedicated on the side characters is created, everyone will enjoy that.

Great art and soundtracks to make your day?
I would say the legacy that Kaguya Sama had for it's outstanding art and animation only got better. The soundtracks make even the little conversations more impactful and enjoyable. Although I would have preferred some more new additions to the soundtracks.

And the ending of this season......I can only say the dual confession just blew my mind away and took it to heavens for a moment.
I enjoyed the show more than anything this season and I can assure you, you will too. A perfect 10 out of 10 for me.
