Lovesick Ellie, Volume 1 by Fujimomo
4.0
This is like if Tina from Bob's Burgers wrote her erotic friend fiction on Twitter and Jimmy Jr was a secret tsundere.
Ellie is the resident invisible girl at her school who spends her free time on Twitter role-playing the life she wished she had with a boyfriend that doesn't exist. This fake boyfriend is based on Ohmi, the school's good guy idol, beloved by all for his kindness and good looks. Only, it turns out, this is a facade Ohmi puts on for yet unknown reasons. Not only that, but he discovers Ellie's secret Twitter account!
Honestly, at this point, I thought this was going to go the way of Mission of Love, where all the main characters are trash monsters who, for some reason, fall in love. Luckily, that is not the case. Ellie is embarrassed but Ohmi never uses this information against her. And, Ellie genuinely finds his tsun personality hot so they form an unproblematic bond.
From that point on, it is a straightforward Shojo, but honestly, that is the best one can hope for. I feared the Twitter fiction would be creepy but it is so obviously fiction that it works fine. I will probably continue reading this series casually.
