“A prodigy at ten, a genius at fifteen, a common man past twenty.”This is a story of the struggle of an ordinary guy like me who is a “reincarnator” and a reckless and promising girl who is a “genius”.
Anya is a promising girl with top-class grades and a high school focus. But she had a rival that she couldn't beat. Childhood friend Sieg. He and Anya were dating from a 7-year-old cram school. Anya treats Sieg, who entered the school on a cold winter day, coldly, but gets a better score than herself in the test and shouts with regret. Since then, Anya will challenge Sieg many times. Ambush, chase, stare, make fun of, declare war. That's how she and he spend a lot of time together ...
My Thoughts
This is a really good fantasy romance story. I've read the one shot and started to read the first volume and it's really well written, full of emotion depicting the struggles of an ordinary reincarnated man who competes against a true genius. I believe the series is complete with each volume telling a story with different characters so bare that in mind where the oneshot that I read is the basis for the first volume only. Also whilst it's a fantasy story it doesn't play a large role and the reincarnation aspect is played well. -
@facelessone Here are the illustrations for volume 2 and 3

@facelessone Volume 1 > Volume 3 >> Volume 2 in quality, imho
-
I've read the one shot, and it was amazing. The story really hits where it hurts.
-
I've read the one-shot and it was really good. I would love to see this liscenced!

Me too

I’m surprised this could stretch to a three novel series. Even if it is an anthology, could they really take the oneshot and make it a volume long?
-
@Torka No, it's been a while since I read it, but as I recall, the one shot covers like half of volume 1. Then, the rest of volume 1 is like a spin off of that, following the MC's daughter. Volume 2 follows a different set of characters, and volume 3, a different character again.

I like how it depicts the feelings of being a "genius" and the attempts of trying to overcome a rival who truly is someone special. I enjoyed seeing how the relationship between the female lead and the Mc developed. The depiction of the emotional struggle of the MC was one of the highlights to me.
