This one is one of the least offensive ones, which means it has to distinguish itself in other ways and this volume continues the minimally service-y (well, in comparison) antics and the overly sweet developing romance between our two leads. Usami might be a touch dull, nothing new there, but he and Hitomi still make a cute couple. Hitomi briefly visits Tadano's school maid cafe, as she had some free time, no sooner had she entered she saw Tadano in a maid outfit. Slightly unnerved, she snaps a picture of him and promptly leaves, phoning their mum, declaring that he really is "like that" (presumably transgender, or otherwise non-standard). She later uploaded that photo to the cloud, so it could exist forever [4]. She shows up again during the school festival, which I think might be one of the dumbest and therefore best haunted house scenes I’ve seen in ages. It’s the best case scenario of a joke just escalating and escalating. There’s an omake that also preserves the ratio of stupid : excellent because of how it’s presented. Comic Natalie (in Japanese).

However, he later discovers she is actually shy. Yuu befriends Hitomi and over time, they start to develop feelings for each other. Hitomi is known to be extremely athletic, strong, fast, and scary; people can feel death itself after being faced by Hitomi.

While the premise has been done to death in many other manga, Hitomi-chan has a certain charm of its own. The character design of the MC is pretty unique and likable. The overall art and other character designs are hit or miss most of the time though. Comic Natalie (in Japanese). Natasha, Inc. February 18, 2022. Archived from the original on February 23, 2022 .

To keep up the cosplay trope, a teacher introduced last volume is now a recurring character who ensures all the rest of the characters always have season-appropriate costumes available.

Tadano suggests that Komi go into a clothes store with Hitomi, as they're both girls, who recommends a cardigan [5].

Usami has something big to get off his chest, but Hitomi is not only popular with him. With classmates, scary girls, kids, brothers, overzealous teachers, and desserts all vying for her time, does he stand a chance? We’re also getting a nicely expanded supporting cast that gives everything a boost. The extremely extra theatre teacher makes a great addition and her zeal for costumes reminds me of how extra the drama club teacher was in my high school to a tee.
