As I’ve been mainly reading toxic romance series lately, I think it’s due time I start talking about some of the more wholesome series in my collection! In this blog post, I introduce three shoujo manga that are packed to the brim with fluff.
Hitting Rewind With You / おくれまして青春
Some info about this manga
- This is a university romance series.
- Our FL and ML bond through their love as cosplaying as high school students, and reliving their slightly younger years.

- There is currently only a Japanese version of this series.
- The English volume one is slated to be related next February.
A quick recap
Wakaba is a 20 year old university student. When she was in high school, she was never really able to live a fulfilling social life due to her focusing on her studies so hard. So, now that she’s a college student with ample time on her hands, she has decided to cosplay as a high school student and go live out the life that she was not able to live when she was actually in high school.
So, she gets dressed up, and decides to take herself out on a date. Even though she’s on a date by herself, it’s actually surprisingly fun: being in the high school uniform just kind of makes everything a little bit more special for some reason. While she’s on her single date though, she’s approached by some rather creepy looking men who mistake her for a high school student. When she is being pestered to go out with them, she is promptly rescued by who will become our male lead, Fumito….. Read on here!

A quick recap
Maaya is a high school student who becomes a little scary when she develops a crush on someone. She has been interested in a boy from her cram school for the past little while, and despite never having talked to him before, she builds up the courage to confess her feelings to him. He, of course, turns her down. To add insult to injury, he posts about the situation on his Twitter, fully expressing how creeped out he was.
Maaya, devastated at having her first time confessing go so horribly, publicly announces that she’s going to give up on love while she thinks she’s alone in the library.
She’s not alone though, and this awkward declaration is what gets her talking to one of the most popular boys in her grade, Chigira…. Read on here!
Glasses With a Chance of Delinquent / ヤンキー、時々、メガネくん
Some info about this manga

- She has yankee-related trauma, and he’s a “former” yankee.
- She changes people’s hearts with her kindness, and he teaches her that not all yankee are bad.

A quick recap
Volume 1 starts off with our main character, Momose in a bit of a predicament: her school requires all students to be in a club, and currently, she isn’t registered with any. Not to worry though, as she is quickly introduced to the honours student Ichikura, who is the only member of the “helping people club”. Momose quickly agrees to join the club, though exactly what she’ll be doing is still a little bit unclear.
When we’re introduced to Momose, we’re also introduced to her aversion towards yankee students – she used to be bullied by these students in her middle school. That’s all in the past though, and she feels at ease when with Ichikura, the honours student… That is, until his true personality is revealed—he is a “former” yankee…Read on here!
