Synopsis
This novel is a sweet and fluffy romcom telling the days of a boyfriend and girlfriend right after they’ve started dating.
The boyfriend, Watase Kairi, 17 years old, is a first-year in high school (returnee). Having just woken up from a 2-year coma, he’s a bit of a problematic young man.
The girlfriend, Koori Nano, 16 years old, is also a first-year in high school. A slightly annoying beauty, who loves dressing up and anything that sounds interesting.
The daily lives of the two basically boil down to this.

“Senpaaai, am I not super duper cute today~? Come on, it wouldn’t hurt to praise me a—”

“Yeah, you really are cute.”

“~~~!”

“Koori?”

“—This is exactly what I’m talking about, Senpai!”

A story of a slightly unaware Senpai, and the always immediately flustered Kouhai. No dangers of a heroine race or a breakup, just a pure and wholesome romcom.

My Thoughts
I really like this fluffy romcom story. Basically the male MC after two years has returned from another world, where the only thing keeping him sane was his love for Koori who he was going to confess to before ending up in a coma. What I like about this series is that it is told from the female mc's perspective as she falls more in love with him with each lack of common sense moment from finding them either super cute or just blushing intensely at something he says. It's great. The only problem is that this series is on hiatus.

Ooh, from the female MC's perspective? I would like to check this out

@lily-garden The female perspective really works in this series. She's quite expressive especially when it comes to scenes where the male mc shows her parts of his past within the other world and what in any other isekai series would have been harem-esque developments but he's having none of it and has his mind thoroughly set on the one he loves, Koori.
