Well this was just sugary sweet. It felt like every other page I would giggle or say "aww". This is definitely a series I will be continuing because I have to see them being cute with each other even more.

- This is absolutely adorable and I love it. The dynamic between them both is hilarious and so so sweet.
- I just can’t deal with how cute this I absolutely love it, and the humour is amazing I’m actually laughing out loud a little bit. And the side characters are great too.
- This is just amazing.

Very cute and wholesome. It’s more like a series of loosely connected oneshots than a tightly knit plot, but it’s a perfectly entertaining (and admittedly adorable) read.

This is cute! A lot of potential to bloom into a really cute romantic relationship! Admittedly, it wasn’t my favorite to hear Ootsu speak so negatively about his body. It’s clear Minegishi adores Ootsu and that was cute to see!

4/5 stars
I was originally going to rate this manga five stars, but after reading it for a second time, I decided to leave it at four-stars. Although I still believe that this is a very wholesome manga, there are some parts in which it's a little iffy.
Summary:
Minegishi is trying to befriend and it's implied that he wants to eventually seduce his coworker, Otsu. Otsu views Minegishi as handsome, fit, and an overachiever. Due to this, Otsu gains a dislike for Minegishi. Minegishi tries his best to befriend Otsu by bringing different snacks.
Review:
Although Minegishi had the best intentions of bringing Otsu different snacks, I felt that the manga overemphasizes at times how much he likes to watch Otsu eat. It seemed like it was a fetish of his at times, which was rather weird when those moments are compared to the rest of the series. On the other hand, it seems to be the complete opposite of Minegishi. He's essentially fat, short, and has a bad attitude. In the end, I liked Otsu better than Minegishi. Even though he misunderstands the meaning of Minegishi's gifts, it ends up being funny instead of annoying. It does end up using a lot of tropes apart from the misunderstanding. I'm noticing that it's becoming more common for mangakas to use food tropes, especially when one of the MCs is fat. I wished at times that the manga would deviate away from the food and focus more on the development of the two MCs' friendship/relationship.

This volume is absolutely adorable. We follow Otsu, a chubby businessman who finds his studly coworker Minegishi annoying. However, Minegishi ADORES Otsu so much. I love everything about this. Minegishi is so loving and caring. He loves our main character for who he is, and my heart swooned! If you need something wholesome this holiday, pick this up! Buy it for a friend! I know I will!
