Thank you Kodansha Comics and NetGalley for the e-ARC of this book

This was really fantastic! It's a fast-paced romance between two boys who until this point didn't realize that they were gay. I fully love this. Them taking care of each other really warms my heart. Also we love to see the sleepy one has captured the awake one and is forced to sleep in the same bed

5 stars

This was such a cute little story about two boys figuring out they like each other! Nagi falls for Yu first, in all their late night drinking sessions, and as Nagi gets Yu home every night when he's too drunk to get himself there. But Nagi doesn't think Yu could ever feel the same way. Until, he starts to wonder if it might just be possible. Nagi is a sweetie, quiet and shy, and Yu is a big, sunshine personality. I loved these two and how they got together <3 (This is another mostly closed door romance!)

This was lovely. It’s a College romance!!! Ahh i was so excited as i read this. I adored the one-sided pining, the art was adorable, the characters were so cute. Thank God no toxicity. I was pleasantly surprised.

A wonderful start into a new manga series.
The warmhearted characters really managed to catch me, the art is really good and the story seems to be cute.
I will now be eagerly waiting for volume 2

I really liked this one. Very calming read. I love the budding romance between Yu and Nagi. I really like the characters. They're very well developed. The story is a nice read, good pacing. I really appreciate the end section where it explained somethings that people not native to Japan could learn and understand the culture. Definitely looking forward to more from this mangaka!

Love on the Horizon 1 is overflowing with tension, denial, and raw emotion—so much so that I found myself repeatedly screaming, “OH MY GOD!” Nagi and Yu-san are absolutely adorable together, and their dynamic had me hooked from start to finish. The only downside? It ended far too soon! I loved it so much that I instantly ordered the paperback. A must-read for romance manga lovers!

This was a short and sweet manga about a college freshman and his next door neighbor upperclassmen. It did seem more of like an insta-love situation and pacing was quick but a really enjoyable story nonetheless. I do wish they expanded more on the relationship between the two. It leaves more to desired.

Thank you so much for the ARC opportunity!

My goodness, this manga was phenomenal. So emotional while being lighthearted and heartwarming. Nagi and Yu are such a sweet pair and I can't wait to see their love story unfold further in the coming volumes. They are so opposite to each other in personality, but so perfectly matched as a pair.

The fact that it is a queer love story and not starting off with some kind of tragedy is amazing. I am beyond excited to see what comes next!

The couple was cute, I liked how their relationship developed and I really liked the art. 4 stars just because it felt a little fast paced and short but I feel like that's normal for mangas like these I'm used to reading. I am also excited to want to read book two. Go to Gracie stephens on goodreads.com to find my review

This was such a sweet little manga. A cute love story that I found to be quite adorable and charming. The are, was of course amazing too. I really enjoyed this read :)

A sweet start to a romance series. Unlike some in this genre, the main couple actually recognize and act on their feeling in the first volume (which does leave me wondering if the next volumes will mainly consist of some sort of traumatic drama which will keep them apart until nearly the end of the series, I'm hoping not).

This is such an adorable BL manga with two wonderful protagonists. I particular love Nagi and Yuu is also adorable as he slowly realises his feelings. It’s really cute to read a friends to lovers tale. There is some beautiful moments within. The art is beautiful as well and you instantly get taken into the story. If you enjoy heartwarming manga this is one for you.

As always thank you to Kodansha Comics for the advanced copy to review, my reviews are always honest and freely given.

Art university student Nagi Kitagawa is hopelessly in love with Yuu Yamasaki, his senpai in the folk song club who also happens to be his next door neighbor. Yuu seems to have it all--good looks, a great personality, and he’s also super popular--so Nagi can’t help but think he’d never fall for a shy, innocent country bumpkin like him. One night, after drinking too much at one of their club get-togethers, Nagi helps a drunk Yuu get home safe--

Such a sweet love story. Made me sigh in many places as you watch Nagi and Saki fall in love. I really enjoyed the art and the tender story of two men who meet in the rain, become friends, and then find love.

Highly recommended . Published Jan 7,2025

Thanks to @netgalley and Kodansha Comics for the opportunity to read this eArc in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

This is a very cute story, especially loved Nagi, he was adorably naive and innocent! The story flowed very smoothly and the art was very clean and well styled. I will have to look into the second book of the series and read it as soon as I am able! Thank you for the chance to read their story!

love on the horizon is a manga about two next door neighbors, nagi and yuu, who attend the same college and end up falling in love.
it's been a while since i've read a BL manga but this was a very cute, lighthearted friends to lovers read! i loved the art style and the college setting. if you don't mind insta-love and want something short and sweet to read i highly recommend! i'm excited to read more.
～thank you to kodansha comics and netgalley for the arc!

This is one of the most adorable things I’ve ever read. Love on the Horizon doesn’t just focus on Kitagawa but also on Yamasaki. It’s the perfect combination of the two’s point of views whilst falling in love with one another. The romance between the two gives off forced proximity vibes but not in a forced type of way.

thank you so much for letting me read this manga. I enjoyed the story, it is very heartwarming and i like the artstyle.

This was a really cute, quick read. I loved the two main characters, they got on so well. I don't read a lot of manga so the layout confused me at first but it was easy to follow and read. I liked the art style a lot and the story was cute while not being too cliché.

Such a cute little friends-to-lovers romance. The art was great and the pacing was perfect. I think this is a must-read for fans of BL and need a cute romance!

Love on the Horizon had me giggling and kicking my feet in the beginning. Frankly, it was adorable at the start; however, as the book went on, it took on a more sexual undertone, and the romance started to feel rushed. Knowing that this is only the first volume of a series, I hadn't anticipated them getting together so early on in the book, and it caused the second half a bit underwhelming.
Thank you, NetGalley and the publishers, for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!
