Because of changes in seating arrangements, high school student Tsuda ended up behind the quiet and expressionless Endou. Their interaction is born from a trivial incident, and he begins to see Endou who he has never gotten to know before. That mole, slender nape, and soft hair. The subtle faces that he makes and little changes in his attitude. But Tsuda, who used to be indifferent about others and never made any deep connections, now feels impatient about the distance between him and Endou, who he has been gradually getting closer to. What on earth is drawing these feelings?

Read the full take

Because of changes in seating arrangements, high-school student Tsuda ends up behind the quiet and expressionless Endou. Their interaction is born from a trivial incident. The premise is a light, observational comedy in which a boy quietly notices the small details of his seatmate, and begins to learn who she really is.The strength is the observation. The diary-like watching of Endou is funny and sweet, and the gradual reveal of her warmth is gentle. The art is clean and the tone is friendly.The weaknesses are about scope. The series is very short, so the arc is brief, and some scenes repeat. Readers wanting a longer story may find it limited.Recommended for readers who enjoy gentle, quiet comedies. Expect a soft, short read that is best enjoyed in one sitting.
