Description
Based on the popular Vocaloid song “” by HoneyWorks: “An announcement to the new students! The teary-eyed angel over there called Otosaki Rin is going to be my girlfriend, so keep your hands off her. Ah, and don’t fall for her either, of course.” No way. I can’t believe this. What, why did it end up like this. On the stage in the gymnasium with all the students gathered together, Kagami Len declared in a loud voice, the spotlight shining down on him. My head spinning from the unthinkable timing of what he shouldn’t have said, even now it feels like I’m about to collapse. As I’m dumbfounded, the root of all evil waves his hand at me, his face beaming with a smile. And so, because of a certain playboy, it was suddenly decided that the plain me’s high school life will end up turning into an uproar. The novel is split into three parts, each taking the title of a song . The first part is “Suki Kirai” (chapters 1-6), the second part is “Nakimushi Kareshi” (chapters 7-9) and the last part is “Hajimari no Sayonara” (chapters 10-13).

My Thoughts on Suki Kirai
"Suki Kirai," a title that hints at the push-and-pull of young love, pulled me in with its promise of a lighthearted shoujo experience rooted in a Vocaloid song. As a collection of short stories, it offered a quick and easy read, perfect for when I needed a break from heavier narratives.
First Impressions
My initial impression was that "Suki Kirai" felt more like reading a manga script than a fully fleshed-out novel. The focus leaned heavily on dialogue, which, while making it a breezy read, sometimes left me wanting more in terms of descriptive prose and internal monologues. I was interested to see how the author captured the nuances of the titular song.
What Works Well
The heart of "Suki Kirai" lies in its ability to evoke a warm, fuzzy feeling. The central romance, while somewhat cliché, is undeniably sweet and endearing. The dynamic between the boy and girl, their initial annoyance gradually giving way to affection, is a classic trope executed with enough charm to keep me invested. The modern-day setting is relatable, and the school life elements add a layer of familiarity that many readers will appreciate. Despite the simplicity of the plot, I found myself smiling at their interactions. The translation also deserves a nod; it managed to convey the story's emotional core effectively, even if the grammar wasn't always perfect.
