Rated “T” for “Teen”
High school student, Takeo Goda, is giant guy, and he isn't the most attractive fellow. He also has a giant heart, but girls won't have anything to do with him. Then he meets Rinko Yamato, after saving her from a harasser on the train. Yamato falls in love with Takeo and his life changes.
As My Love Story!!, Vol. 2 (Chapters 4 to 7) opens, Takeo is enjoying life with a girlfriend. Now, that Takeo has a girlfriend, his friends also want to meet girls, so Yamato plans a mixer. Everything is going well when some of the friends decide to start saying bad things. Also, Takeo agrees to help out the Shuei High judo team, but that means time away from Yamato. Will this relationship, which is still in its “honeymoon stage,” survive gossipy friends and sports tournaments?
[This volume contains an interview with series creators, Kazune Kawahara and Aruko.]
THE LOWDOWN: The My Love Story!! manga is a sweet high school shojo love story. Reading it tickles my imagination; it's dessert for my brain. That's all I can say about it for now.
I have to admit that I cannot help but love a volume of manga that includes four recipes for Japanese treats, sweet and savory. Manga plus foodie culture – that's nice.
POSSIBLE AUDIENCE: Readers looking for sweet love stories will want to try the Shojo Beat title, My Love Story!!
