Title: A Condition Called Love 1 by Megumi Morino

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Stars

16-year-old Hotaru has always prioritised family and friends over love. She has no experience in love and is willing to live her life without it.

However, when she offers her umbrella to her schoolmate, Hananoi-kun, after his breakup, she doesn't expect it to lead to him asking her out in front of their classmates. Suddenly, Hotaru finds herself facing the possibility of a major change in her life as she navigates unexpected feelings and new experiences.


In this delightful manga, we follow a young girl navigating the rollercoaster of first love, accompanied by heart-melting artwork.

The dynamic between our sweet and innocent protagonist, Hotaru, and her intense love interest, Hananoi, forms the core of the story. While Hananoi's bold declarations may raise eyebrows, they often serve as comedic moments, highlighting his unwavering dedication to Hotaru.

Despite the whirlwind romance, Hananoi's genuine affection for Hotaru shines, especially when we catch glimpses of his troubled background. Hotaru's innocence adds a layer of humour to their budding relationship, making for a charming and amusing journey through the highs and lows of young love.
