Read the full take
If you want a boyfriend that bad, I will go out with you. Growing up as next-door neighbours, Reita Kikuchi and Makoto Sakurai's parents are friends, and the two have known each other for years. The premise is a light romcom in which a half-joking offer leads two old friends into something new.The strength is the comfort. The childhood friendship gives the romance a warm, lived-in feel, and their banter is easy and funny. The shifting feelings between the two are handled with warmth.The weaknesses are about repetition. Some scenes return to the same beats, and the romance develops steadily. Readers wanting a sharper story may find it gentle.Recommended for readers who enjoy sweet, friendship-to-romance stories. Expect a warm, easy read that is best enjoyed in steady doses.
