[DeepL Translation - needs review] Summer vacation--I always see the name "Seiji Amazawa" on the library's checkout card. What kind of person is he? Shizuku can't help but be curious. With high expectations, she meets Seiji Amazawa, but.... Reality is not so sweet! He's a very bad guy! This is a masterpiece that has been made into a movie! A refreshing 100% love story by Aoi Hiiragi of "Silhouette of Starry Eyes" fame!

Good first manga if you like the film

I think this was the perfect manga for me to start with. The vocabulary and grammar are fairly easy, and being a manga it's easy to follow even if you don't understand a sentence. It's definitely worth reading without looking up words you don't know (unless it's repeated often of course), in fact there were very few words I didn't know. It definitely gave me the confidence that I can start incorporating much more reading practice into my learning.

However, the story isn't super interesting, and

My favourite animated film (and now my favourite manga?)

I love the film and now I have read the original manga as well. It is so cute. It was interesting to see how some elements of the story have been changed to fit the film adaptation better.

The language is very simple, so it is easy to follow.

It's May 5 2023 as I write this (ignore the date Natively says), around 8 months after I finished this manga. So keep in mind it's been a while since I read it.

My main issue is that due to it being only one volume, the pacing and development of certain plot points feel rushed. From what I remember there was some casual language that was hard for me to get through at the tim
