Also known as: 夢見る男子は現実主義者, The Dreaming Boy Is a Realist
by Popuri Yoshikita, Okemaru
Sajou Wataru, who is deeply in love with his beautiful classmate Natsukawa Aika, is continuing to approach her without getting discouraged while having dreams about their mutual love. However one day he woke up thinking "I am not really fit to be together with someone as good as her, huh..." Upon realizing this, Wataru started keeping an appropriate distance towards her, much to Aika's surprise. "Could it be that he hates me now...?" Did his intentions slip by her because she was getting impatient after arriving at the wrong conclusion!? This is the start of a romcom revolving around two people who just cant get their feelings across and both think their love is unrequited! (Source: Hobby Japan, translated)

The StoryHoard editorial verdict
A light, cheerful romcom where a boy who loves his classmate suddenly decides he is not fit for her, and his spiral of realism is the comedy.
Pros
- Quirky, self-deprecating comedy
- A clear hook of a dream-driven lead

Read the full take
Sajou Wataru is deeply in love with his beautiful classmate, Natsukawa Aika, and keeps approaching her without giving up, even while dreaming about their shared future. Then one day he wakes up convinced he is not really fit to be with her. The premise is a quirky spin on the dreaming-romance story, and the comedy comes from the gap between his hopes and his reality.The strength is the self-deprecating energy. The lead's spiral of sensible doubt is funny, and the contrast between his dreams and waking life gives the chapters a playful structure. The romance is sweet and earnest, and the gags land quickly.The weaknesses are clear. The realism spiral can feel repetitive over time, and the harem tags are lightly used rather than central. Readers wanting faster romantic progress may find the pace slow.Recommended for readers who like quirky romcoms with a self-deprecating lead. Expect light laughs and a lot of overthinking.
