If you walk into a classroom you may see a mixture of those in a relationship and those who are forever alone. Its pretty much impossible for every single person in a large group to be the boyfriend or girlfriend of someone else but what if someone like that could possibly be the case? In case youre wondering I found out about this manga while randomly looking up manga from the same magazine as Gakkou Gurashi it looked like a cute simple romance so I decided that it couldnt hurt to read it. Thus I read all 14 chapters in a row and I must say that it met my expectations and maybe even went a tiny bit beyond it was a cute simple romance with some awesome character development. Its too bad that it didnt last long enough to possibly get an anime right?
Ladies and gentlemen welcome to my review of Bocchi na Bokura no Renai Jijou known as The Circumstances of our Lonely Love in English.
Bocchi na Bokura no Renai Jijou takes place in a certain class at a certain school after summer vacation has ended in this particular class love has filled up so much air that its almost suffocating. You see every single student actually even the teacher is in a romantic relationship with a significant other.... well except for a boy named Hajime Ichijou as such he starts to be seen as a loner. Things soon change however when a transfer student named Chitose Ninomiya arrives in his class. As she also doesnt have a boyfriend the class starts to push her and Hajime together even though they constantly bicker. Thus a cute story following the developing feelings between the two loners begins....
Since it only has fourteen chapters which spawned two volumes not a lot of room is left to develop most of the characters. The couple that this manga focuses on the most is Chitose and Hajime and its true that I enjoyed reading as they developed as characters and as their relationship as classmates grows into something more. The short length of this manga works only for them as it isnt like we have to read 100+ chapters to see them confess to each other however the way that the short length doesnt work is that it doesnt leave room to develop other characters that are in relationships. I cant say I hate the story despite that though it was a cute story that matched well with as I should mention the adorable artwork. Its rather simple but its perfect for this manga
Overall Bocchi na Bokura no Renai Jijou was an enjoyable manga. Id recommend it to you if youre looking for a simple romance manga that you can read in its entirety within just a short time. If youre also a loner dont worry you and a fellow loner just may find each other one day
