My Girlfriend is 8 Meters Tall

A typical high school boy's childhood friend transfers into his class, and she is now eight metres tall. As her assigned helper, he navigates school life in more ways than one. The premise is a high-concept comedy with a romantic core.The strongest element is the premise itself. The scale of the mishaps creates a steady stream of physical comedy, and the childhood-friend dynamic gives the story warmth. The tender moments land between the gags.The weakness is thinness. The high-concept hook can run thin over a long run, and some jokes lean into ecchi territory that may not suit every reader. The supporting cast is sketched rather than developed.If you enjoy light romcoms with a playful gimmick, it is a fun pick. It is goofy and warm. Expect giant-sized chaos, a loyal friend and a romance that refuses to let height be the problem.
