Synopsis

Eiji Kitahama, a second year high school student, just wants to be popular. To help him realize this dream, Rin Nanakura, his junior in the drama club, uses her acting skills to create a harem of loving girls for him. Though the various "girls" all show fondness toward Eiji, the affection of the actress behind them is very real. Rin's colorful acting continuously delights Eiji, but will the starlet herself ever make her way into his heart?

The following review is in Spanish and English (translated with the support of DeepL)

The version read is the Spanish translation by SimonXD of “Ramen y Pancake” and Daxer of “Wicked Tricksters”.

Another example of the school romantic comedy “subgenre” of short-lived chapters of a boy and girl based on some particular interaction, in this case it is her acting out different characters, to which the boy will respond in various ways. Constituting a harem approach even being only two characters.

From there comes one of its best qualities, for those who are fans of the genre will be able to have fun with all the different personalities ...

This is actually a pretty quick read despite the chapter count. It's relaxed, nothing crazy, just a silly little romance story with a good ending. I don't really have much more to say about it, honestly. For people who dislike the basic boring harem trope, this is a good breath of fresh air. It's like the Saiki K of the romance genre, if Saiki K wasn't already the Saiki K of the romance genre.

The characters were fun and entertaining, and I wouldn't say I latched onto any in particular, but I didn't dislike anybody. It's a wholeheartedly pretty calm story, and worth reading imo.

Worldbuilding: 9/10

This review will include some spoilers (though I think it's predictable).

Firstly, I should say that I'm not the target demographic and I only started reading it because the concept sounded so bizarre. It's a quick read too since the chapters are mostly short interactions taken out of context. But despite the lack of plot, the characters do make strides in their relationship. The art style is cute, and the author does a good job at depicting Rin's "personas". The humor was more of a mixed bag for me, as were the characters.
This manga follows Rin, who is infatuated with her senpai and flexes her acting ...
