好きな子がめがねを忘れた [Suki na Ko ga Megane o Wasureta] #1

A sweet, sun-drenched classroom moment sets the tone for this first volume from Square Enix, as a long-haired girl in a red top leans in close toward a fair-haired boy seated at his desk — their faces just inches apart, charged with quiet tension. The title, The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses, telegraphs the charming premise perfectly, and that cover composition already captures the delightful awkwardness of proximity between two teens who clearly have a lot of unspoken feelings. If gentle, slow-burn school romance is your thing, this opening volume looks like a genuinely lovely place to start.
