I’m just not interested in the idol/superstar + fangirl aspect, so I won’t be continuing this story.

But I like that Kouta has some depth. It’s very apparent he’s dealing with low self-esteem, grief, and people-pleasing tendencies. He plasters a smile on his face to his own detriment at times. It’s fairly realistic that even with Sahoko trying to affirm him that he doesn’t believe it (just yet).

Sahoko is fine to just stay in the background as his forever fan and emotional pick-me-up, knowing deep down she can’t be content subduing her feelings for him forever. But mainly she's just boring.

Still, pretty cute overall for someone looking for a lighthearted read.
