The life of newlyweds can be full of new concepts and joys. Tonikaku Kawaii is probably the most wholesome anime/manga that Ive seen. It has an amazing story while still being relaxing to the readers. I personally love this manga so much that I bought the physical copies of the first 7 volumes will buy the other volumes when they come out in english. Im also a huge fan of Hatasenseihttps://anilist.co/staff/100074/HataKenjirou so I probably like this series more than most. The story is about a brilliant boy named Yuzaki Nasahttps://anilist.co/character/130944/YuzakiNasa who meets this mysterious beauty Yuzaki Tsukasahttps://anilist.co/character/131106/YuzakiTsukasa and marries her. Nasa was given a weird name at birth because his name is spelled using the kanjis for hoshizora meaning starry sky but pronounced Nasa named after the USs NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration. One day while walking home pleased with his mock exam grades he sees a beautiful girl on the other side of the street sipping coffee. Hes determined to talk to her so he starts crossing the street to talk to her. However hes unaware of the danger he just put himself in. BAM hes hit by a truck. But whats this hes still alive and the girl he saw is right above him bleeding too. She protected him from the truck by taking most of the blow. She then gets up acting like nothing happened. As Nasa watches her leave she reminds him of Princess Kaguya from the old fairytale The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. He then chases after her to thank her and tell her how he feels. Unexpectedly she says Alright. If you marry me Ill go out with you. Nasa replies with an immediate Yes and passes out. Right from the beginning there are a lot of questions to be raised about Tsukasa. For example how did she get up so easily after being hit by a truck? In my opinion questions like these are essential to a good story and for raising a good fanbase. A manga that conveys this beautifully is One Piecehttps://anilist.co/manga/30013/ONEPIECE/ because fans are constantly theorizing and giving hypotheses on the questions and what will happen in the story. Moving away from the main story this manga is full of wholesome daily life experiences and is exactly how a slice of life manga should be in my opinion. It has a good mix of comedy to go with the romance. I cant say much about romance because Ive never been in a relationship before but I think this is a very cute romance story. There arent too many side characters so youre not getting overwhelmed with too many characters to keep up with. In addition to that the side characters still have their own little part in the story without getting too involved so they dont get boring. The personalities of the side characters also are very similar to other slice of life side characters which gives a nice feel of familiarity. Another thing I enjoy about this is that it takes place in the same world as Hatasenseis previous manga Hayate no Gotokuhttps://anilist.co/manga/30696/HayatenoGotoku/ and shows some of its characters in the background. That gives it a nice sense of nostalgia for the people that has read or watched Hayate no Gotoku. Hatasensei has good talent as a mangaka because he has some good art and is able to come up with good stories. He is also very experienced as a mangaka with having a few previous manga and being active since 2002. Hatasensei was also the assistant of Kumeta Koujihttps://anilist.co/staff/97662/KoujiKumeta who I think is also a very good mangaka I really liked his Kakushigotohttps://anilist.co/manga/97603/Kakushigoto/. There are some bad parts to this manga though. Some people might not like how there are a lot of slice of life parts that dont really have much to do with the main story regarding Tsukasas mysteriousness and want to story to go faster. Some might consider some of the characters annoying like Kanameshttps://anilist.co/character/137513/ArisugawaKaname lewd jokes. There might be some other parts people dont like but I personally dont have a problem with these. Overall I really enjoy this manga and Im sure people who like romcom slice of lifes will also enjoy it. But if youre into genres like action and drama this might not be for you. Ive reread this manga plenty of times and I think will keep doing so for a long time. Of course this is mainly just my opinion though you will also have your own view of Tonikaku Kawaii but I hope this was somewhat useful. sorry if this review isnt that good its my first review 220https://s4.anilist.co/file/anilistcdn/media/manga/cover/large/nx101177FjjD5UWB3C3t.png
