My Thoughts on The Gal Is Sitting Behind Me, and Loves Me (WN)
This web novel, "The Gal Is Sitting Behind Me, and Loves Me," offers a lighthearted and seemingly straightforward romance. I dove in expecting a fluffy slice-of-life story, and that’s largely what I got.
First Impressions
The initial chapters are certainly easy to digest. The chapters are short, making it easy to pick up and read a bit whenever I have a spare moment. The premise is simple: a loner protagonist finds himself unexpectedly pursued by the "gal" sitting behind him. It's a classic setup, and I was curious to see how the author would put their own spin on it.
What Works Well
The early focus on romance is definitely a strong point. The development between the two leads is sweet and heartwarming, especially since the love interest seems to fall first. The protagonist is also quite caring, which makes him easy to root for, even if he is a bit of a loner. The 'genius protagonist' aspect is a nice touch that gives the story a bit more depth than your average school-life romance. I found myself smiling at the small, everyday moments between the characters. The whole thing has a very gentle, comforting feel to it.
Areas of Concern
While the simplicity is part of the charm, I do wonder if the story might become repetitive down the line. The pacing is quite relaxed, which might not appeal to everyone. Also, while I found the translator's work readable, it could benefit from some polish to elevate the reading experience.
Final Verdict
Overall, "The Gal Is Sitting Behind Me, and Loves Me" is a pleasant and undemanding read. If you're looking for a heartwarming and uncomplicated romance with a touch of comedy and school-life elements, this might be right up your alley. While it may not be groundbreaking, it delivers on its promise of a sweet and fluffy story. I'm curious to see where the author takes the relationship between the two leads as the story progresses.
