Just Friends was a sweet manga. It definitely fits the mold of teen coming of age comics and I was especially charmed by its slow building romance. Ana Oncina is great at capturing the messy feelings of adolescence and that first real relationship and the big feelings involved. 

I will say I wasn't quite as fond with the overall frame narrative that scaffolded the story. While seeing our protagonists older and picking apart their messy years long situationship was occasionally interesting it felt too tonally distinct from the main story thread.

While Just Friends wasn't perfect I'd recommend it to anyone fond of tender queer coming of age narratives and fans of authors like Mariko Tamaki.
