Beschreibung des Verlags
Kae reporting! After Nanashima makes a shocking move to declare his feelings, I just don’t know what to think. He’s always been hot-blooded, but where do we stand now? There’s a more important man to worry about, though…my dad! He’s been away for a long time, and my new look—and new friends—take him by surprise. He doesn’t know what to think now that his little girl is so popular, so he sets out to do some research of his own. It’s also a rocky time with Shinomiya-kun when he finds out his parents are moving back to…Norway?! He’s our precious friend, but even his feelings for me could grow cold when I’m creeped out by his cold-blooded pet, Thor. I’ve got to make this right! Will the guys and I be able to convince him to stay?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Attractive character designs, diverse personalities, and eye-grabbing layouts highlight this manga focused on the life of a fujoshi a fangirl who obsesses over pairing male characters with each other. Kae Serinuma is an unpopular, overweight, pop culture obsessed high school student. After her favorite character is killed off, she goes into a depression spiral that makes her lose weight; she comes out on the other side as a beautiful and thin object of affection of the four cutest guys in her school (whom she "ships" together in her daydreams). This book could easily go wrong, but it's a well-played farce filled with both laughter and empathy, no doubt helped by the fact that the author is a well-established writer of yaoi ("boys love") manga. The boys, especially, are far from tropes. Rather than saying that thin is beautiful, the narrative lightheartedly tackles both the boys' confusion of what to do with a girl who has weird interests, and Kae's struggle to learn how to function like a normal person and yet stay true to her uniqueness when suddenly given the chance.
