I picked up the first volume of Nakatani Nio's Bloom Into You because my sister had asked me to try to find copies for her, and I was curious. It's an f/f manga, in which a 2nd year student (Nanami) falls in love (almost instantly) with a 1st year student (Yuu), and tries to get her involved in her election campaign to be school president. 

The art is cute enough, fairly typical really. I thought that Yuu's initial interest in talking to Nanami and understanding her all made sense, but Nanami's quick response of falling in love with her just felt too fast, and I feel like Nanami was a bit manipulative trying to get her way and keep Yuu close by. The kiss is completely out of the blue as well.

I can see how they could form rather a cute relationship, as Yuu tries to be supportive of Nanami, and doesn't mind when she's not the perfect girl others seem to see. It'll need some serious development right now, though, as Yuu seems to be completely uninterested in anyone (asexual and/or aromantic). I'm not sure if I'll read more.

This was a fun manga, I am curious to see how it will continue. Will Koito fall in love with her senpai?The art is really pretty (especially during the coloured parts).

I don’t usually read manga, and this was my first yuri manga, so it was quite a bit different from what I usually read. The series is definitely aimed at teens and definitely felt childish at times. I was a bit surprised at the way the relationship started out and things seemed to move very fast for one of the characters. But it was a cute, quick read and I may pick up the rest of the series.

La historia, en sí, está buena. La dinámica es parecida a la de "Citrus" y "Sakura Trick"; una de las protagonistas es brillantemente dulce, mientras que la otra ha vivido abatida por no ser lo suficientemente interesante hacia los ojos de los demás.

Prácticamente, casi todas las dinámicas de los mangas yuri escolares que existen. Todas iguales, con un poquitín de diferencia.



A pesar de ello, la relación de Nanami con Yuu es... extraña. Estuve en la misma posición de ambas, por lo que siento que entiendo un poco las reacciones que tienen.

Pero Nanami, a pesar de decir y re-decir que está enamorada de Yuu, ella no parece realmente querer estar con ella.

Yuu, de todas formas, no la ha rechazado todavía, aunque intenta alejarla o intentar no perder su cabeza con las acciones de Nanami.



Realmente no sé qué reseñar, porque la historia me dejó medio embotada. No entiendo mucho lo que está pasando y, a mi gusto, el tiempo está pasando demasiado rápido y la relación de las protas parece forzada; más por el lado de Nanami.

Sin embargo, espero que la historia me guste. Los demás personajes sí que son unos personajes increíbles y ya amo a las amigas de Yuu <3
