ぼくたちは勉強ができない [Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai]

A warm, comedic high-school romance from Shueisha, Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai follows a studious but poor boy who is tasked with tutoring three brilliant but academically challenged girls—each a genius in her own field—as they all strive to pass their university entrance exams. Running from 2017 to 2021 across 21 issues, the series is best known for the heartfelt, often hilarious character dynamics crafted by its creator, Taishi Tsutsui. It matters as a standout in the romantic comedy genre for its clever subversion of the "studious nerd" trope, balancing genuine warmth with the chaos of youthful ambition.
