4/5 🌟

This is just so wholesome! The way both father and daughter are slowly adapting living together and gradually getting used to each other's presence is making my heart melt.

Reseña completa: https://fiebrelectora.blogspot.com/20...

Ya ha pasado un tiempo desde que Masamune conoció a Koharu, la hija que no sabía que tenía, y se hizo cargo de ella tras la muerte repentina de su madre. Ahora, Koharu empieza la primaria y descubre un nuevo mundo, con nuevos amigos y situaciones: Kanna, su hermana, el casero, sus abuelos y su padre, Masamune, al que no quiere decepcionar por nada del mundo.

Jo, ¿cómo puede ser taaaaaaaan bonito y adorable? Intento dosificarlo e ir leyendo a un capítulo al día, porque es demasiado precioso como para querer terminarlo pronto, pero me cuesta muchísimo. Son unos personajes muy queribles, en situaciones normales y habituales pero presentadas de una manera de lo más especial.

A mi desde el primer tomo esta pareja de padre-hija me tienen ganado el 💜. El primero fue un descubrimiento donde pensaba que el melodrama de la muerte de la madre iba a impregnar desde el primer capítulo hasta el último y no. Da gusto como se tratan temas bastante duros como no solo la pérdida de un ser querido, sino también la soledad, la amistad, los embarazos no deseados… Y todo ello narrado desde y/o para los ojos de una pequeña niña curiosa que está descubriendo la vida tras la muerte de su madre. Un segundo tomo que llena de capas a los personajes y los va acercando más y más al lector. No parece una novela que tenga +15 años desde su publicación. Muy actual. 👏🏼👏🏼

My Girl is definitely one of my favourite mangas. I love it to death. The simple plot combined with the beautiful artwork just makes for a great manga. There needs to be more amazing mangakas like Sahara Mizu!

There's a big jump in scope with the frequent time jumps leading the daughter to be in elementary school. She deals with bullies and then it leads into more stuff about dealing with grief and teen pregnancy. Then we get a more long term goal in him trying to work his butt off to get some extra work pay to help fund his daughter going into his Mom's prestigious school. It was nice to read.
The whole time you still feel the Mom, Youko, throughout but especially in the second half after the teen pregnancy scare storyline. It's in a very natural way that feels like genuine grief where little things always remind you of them or wrap back around to them almost like fate. I really enjoyed that. There's a big focus too on praising her as a single mom and pushing on alone. It doesn't make fun of or belittle her but rather create pride in her choices and her committee to them. And it pushes on the Dad in a really nice way that's tender and sweet which is what feelings this manga does best.

E siamo arrivati al primo anno delle elementari. L'autrice se la cava egregiamente a rappresentare la relazione tra un novello padre e una bambina, per quanto matura e responsabile come Koharu.

L'ultima scena, , è stata la più bella. Ma anche i capitoli dedicati alla sorella dell'amichetta sono molto particolari.

Questa serie è una bellezza!

Il fatto che sia leggero non vuol dire che non dia qualcosa. Non conosco usagi drop o altri manga del genere (ma ho letto "Quando arriverà la pioggia tornerò"). Penso che questo manga sia molto bello, i disegni sono gradevoli e per la prima volta vedo affrontare il discorso figli in maniera non problematica, la bellezza e la voglia dell'esperienza di padre... è questo che vedo ed è questo che mi trasmette.

Una història fascinant que ens mostra una relació de pare i filla preciosa, plena de moments captivadors que t'estrenyen el pit. La trama va molt més enllà del dol de la mare i ens mostra aquesta convivència incipient, fràgil, però entendridora. Encara dubto si fer-me la col·lecció en castellà o no perquè em fa l'efecte que no me'ls rellegiré... no ho tinc clar. Això sí, és una gran història per llegir a poc a poc.

This manga is so wholesome. The artwork reminds me of older Kdramas, I know it’s weird. Two different things, but I say older Kdramas because how precious they were. This is an older Manga, which makes sense.

Este manga es super bonito, de verdad lo recomiendo.
No tengo hijos pero me sientoidentificada con Masamune como persona. Y Koharu es una niña muy linda, aunque le pasa de todo :)

il est intéressant de voir l'attitude envers des mères célibataires au Japon. pas très "moderne". La fin m'a vraiment touché ou Masamune et Koharu abandonnent leurs rêves pour donner le propriétaire/voisin une opportunité de voir sa femme avant qu'elle ne meure.
