Manga Suggestion - Namida Usagi
Seifuku no Kataomoi #MRR
Author: Minase Ai
Description: {quoted from MangaRock}
When Momoka, a very shy girl who loves rabbits, is forced to change seats, she finds herself sitting at the back of the class, next to a boy she has never spoken to before, Narumi Takahiro. Everyone thinks that he is strange and all of the girls are afraid of him. Why? There is a rumor that he is cursed and and that the girls sitting next to him will never find love. Momoka believes in the rumor and fears him, but she gradually discovers the true Narumi and eventually new feelings are taking a hold on her. Is it friendship... Or love?
Personal Review:

| WARNING - EVENT SPOILERS INCLUDED |
To start off, everyone knows the characters introduced make up the entire story, so lets give them some spotlight time. Most definitely, I love the personality of the characters and how they realistically support each other in the story.
Narumi Takahiro, being the 'weirdo' in the classroom, has a very bright, intriguing, and friendly side to him. Anyone who reads deeper into this manga should fall in love with his character. Unless of course you are one of the fangirls who only go for the popular dudes in the story which would be
In addition, I began to think that the author of this manga was very clever in the set-up or story behind the cause of the character's relationship (seat-change occurrence and rumors added together). Another detail that surprised me was that the author didn't hesitate to include a personal matter during the scene where during a run, Momoka experiences cramps and sits at the sidewalk to take a rest. Then she realizes that her period had come and unable to move, she starts to panic. Just after that, Takahiro runs by and he notices Momoka sitting by the sidewalk. Instantly worried, he goes up to her and asks if she's all right. Almost instantly, he realizes that she's on her period, he covers her with his jacket and carries her to the nurse. Momoka is touched by this gesture and starts a new perspective of Takahiro. I mean just take a poll here; raise your hand if you have ever read a manga or seen an anime where the creator includes explicit evidence of a character going through puberty? Noone? Didn't think so. This is one reason to think the series is unique!!
Next up, as she gradually discovers Takahiro's sweet side and falls in love with him, the events get more serious. I lost my mind where she gathered the courage up pretty late and decided to confess to him after graduation and he already left from the station for a forever distanced trip to Hokkaido.
Sadly, several years have already passed and Momoka is already a freshman in high school! This series gets SUPER HOT AND SPICY(to those who know: am i right? or am i right?) once rumors (yes more gossip and rumors announced by yours truly.. just kidding) are exclaiming a sexy/handsome freshman has come to the school. Obviously, hearing these whispers Momoka is shocked to find out they are talking about Narumi Takahiro.
Hmph, you thought that was getting hot? Just wait! Here's my favorite part…
Ongoing, Momoka becomes heartbroken after she confesses because she is PLAIN REJECTED because Takahiro has a "girlfriend". (WHHHHHHHAAAAAAT?!! Then why does he return the googoo eyes to her? : My thoughts exactly..) Anyways, they start the whole "Can we stay friends though?" crap, that also involves the "I try to move on with my life, but he always reminds me why I love him" stuff.
OOOOOOOH AND ONE MORE SECRET!! Because Momoka appears to be the innocent and lovely good girl type, there need not be any explanation for the reason guys notice and immediately fall in love with her. And the juicy stuff you knew would come right after… Yes, it starts making Takahiro jealous, despite the fact that he has a girlfriend.
(SPOILER ALERT 86% - DONT READ IF YOU DONT WANT TO)
The only reason Takahiro rejected Momoka is because he made a promise to his so-called 'girlfriend'. During the series, they show the scene that exposes the true reason Takahiro is stuck to his girlfriend for the time being. Being the responsible dude he is, he can't stand to break a promise, even if it means sacrificing life's true treasure; love.
I REALLY LOVED THIS MANGA AND I KNOW YOU WILL TOO!
(um.. so what are you doing here? GO AND READ IT!)
Genres included: Comedy, drama, romance, slice of life, school life, and shoujo.
