This is currently my favorite manga. It’s a genuine laugh out loud type of series that I continue to come back to. This was the first time in a while a first chapter hooked me into the series. It’s sweet seeing the different relationships and dynamics pan out throughout the series. The highlight of the series by far is the main characters Ida and Aoki’s relationship. You get to see it form naturally over the course of the entire seires. They have a sweet relationship that feels realistic and not forced. All of the characters (although I’ll admit not that much) grow over the

course of the series. I’m probably biased due to my love of this series but even the side characters are pretty entertaining. One problem I have with Kiera Hatsukoi is it’s pacing. The first 20-28 chapters pacing was fantastic but I feel as if the ending was rushed like they didn’t know where to take it. I’m hoping with the official translations coming from Viz that it will feel less rushed but still. I also wish they added more dimension to some of the side characters. I would have loved hearing more from some of the side characters like Kokoro and Saionji. Even including the parts I didn’t enjoy I still adore this series and recommend this to anyone who enjoys bl, shojos, or slice of life comedies. It’s currently done serialization with 39 chapters and Viz as i’m writing this has released up to vol 6 so it’s a good time to get into the series. I’m hoping for an anime adaptation in the future.
