Fly Me to the Moon is a sweet romantic manga about learning to love each other, growing and communication. I'm very intrigued where this story is going in the potential alien, moon goddess or other fantasy route. I'm kind of over the intrigue though, to be honest. I want something to happen other than just the cute relationship.

Three out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and VIZ for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.

Still a sweet little romance between a husband and wife in a quickie marriage that seems like it will take a while to be consummated since they are still working on kissing each other.

The background of the bride continues to be a slow reveal with a couple relatives of hers making appearances that actually deepen the mystery even as they reveal a smidge of new information.

It's fun in a fluffy way -- and now there are maids and the prospect of maid cosplay -- so I'll stick around, but I do worry the slow pace may wear me down eventually.

I don't think this series is for me. Nothing is happening and it's all feeling very stagnant. I'm not interested in continuing anymore. Too much slice of life and I don't care about the characters' lives enough to care about the early marriage romps and trying to learn each other.

[James DeSantis · Rating 5 out of 5]

This volume is even better than the first, really letting the humor fly and mostly landing.

This is Nasa and Tsukasa trying to be a married couple. Miscommunication always happens and when both are thinking there is different issues, both try to fix different things. Not to mention you meet Nasa's childhood friends and oh my, a perverted girl and a semi-idiotic girl who runs a bathhouse. Good times. Then you meet Tsukasa family and a jealous sister and a maid + warrior. All hell breaks loose.

The series even breaks the 4th wall a few times but it works so well here. Lots of great laugh out loud moments, awesome tender sweet moments with the two main characters, and some just happy fill your heart with joy moments.

This is becoming a super pleasure to read.

Silly romance manga with a sweet message about open communication and discussion of expectations in a relationship. But mostly silly and a little too genre-savvy. I liked it but not sure I'll read any more.

This second volume has even more adorable moments and even more humor!

I love how the focus is still on them building up their relationship despite the oddity of it and some new opposition. Nasa is kind of clueless but has his heart in the right place, and Tsukasa remains somewhat mysterious but we do get some more background and we get to see her open up a bit more.

The humor gets ridiculous in some areas but I honestly found it quite fun, and made what would normally be a very tense situation pretty fun.

This slice of life is just plain fun, and I'm looking forward to see how it continues to unfold. Hopefully volume 3 gives us even more background for Tsukasa.

This is a really wierd title...not good enough to recommend yet, but at the same time just engaging enough to keep me reading.

[Mir · Rating 3 out of 5]

I hope the next volume will have more reveals and less girls-are-high-maintenance.

[Shani · Rating 3 out of 5]

The romance continues as the two settles into their roles as a married couple and learns to live together.

Tsukasa and Nasa continue to build a life in the tiny apartment above the store. Tsukasa's family creeps into their life and despite her attempts, they plan to stick around. Nasa continues to make blunders as he learns to live with a girl and interpret emotions. The plot has a steady flow with humorous anecdotes. The cast of characters expands with some classic manga tropes and an expanding arc. The illustrations are simple but detailed, drawing readers to characters' emotions and their modest lifestyle.

This volume moves slowly and takes longer to build-up to the obvious. Hopefully, the next volume moves the plot along and spends less time getting things for the apartment.

Very cute. Not a huge fan of the side characters for now, but the main couple's worth it.

[Marcy Thomas · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thanks to Netgalley for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

I was very impressed with the first volume, so I was eager to read the second one, and it did not disappoint. This volume follows our main couple, Tsukasa and Nasa, as they adjust to married life, while also getting to know each other when they’re basically strangers, while also dealing with the mystery behind Tsukasa’s origins. It’s very much a slice of life comedy, with a bit of fluff and waifu bait, but it’s harmless compared to all the other depictions of waifus I’ve seen. This is more cute and adorable, which fits the tone of the series so far.

The main focus is seeing our couple develop. It was sweet to witness how much of a movie nerd Tsukusa is and how much she needed to educate her oblivious husband on popular culture, and Nasa trying to find the best way to propose to his wife while also being clueless on her thought process. You definitely get the sense they’re young and don’t know what they’re doing, but their affection for each other is a joy to witness, and they work well together.

I feel like the mystery of Tsukasa’s origins is going to be stretched out for as long as possible, even though there are a few guesses to what she might be. The introduction of her family will be interesting, and has the potential to create some funny scenarios. I do hope we get to see Nasa’s family in the future too.

Another great volume.

This one was… slightly better. It was still filled with unnecessary over-sexualization, but it was definitely less frequent and focused on compared to the first volume. I actually sincerely enjoyed all the pop culture references. I find it hilarious how mangas and animes avoid copyright by blacking out or changing one letter of something, and I found how they did that in this manga highly amusing. The whole bath scene at the beginning was just… so unnecessary. But I liked how they poked fun at how literally every manga/anime ever includes a scene like that. They just had to follow the stereotype I guess.
I still can’t stand Nasa’s sudden horniness. It’s just a bit much. Even if he’s thinking it, they don’t have to mention it every time, because it’s pretty excessive. Overly excessive. Unbearably excessive. Like I-will-stop-reading-the-series-soon-if-this-doesn’t-stop excessive. There was a moment where I was so fed up with it I thought, that’s it I’m done after this volume. But they managed to pull it together enough to make me give it another chance. I’m hoping that once they exhaust all the manga cliches and stereotypes (ie: the bath scene, maid outfits, etc), we can move on to a more mature and realistic romance. I caught a glimpse of it at the end which was sweet, so I have faith they can get there.
Also, listening to Ozawa Kenji while reading chapter 17 is actually very fun, I recommend.

I love that we get to know Tsukasa more in this volume. We understand at least partially why she had a quickie wedding with Nasa, and we get to see people who care about her.
We also see their marriage continue to grow, and to have Nasa truly showing her how he feels about her. He wants her to feel loved and not alone, and it is so well done. I love this series a lot, and plan to continue!

Quero dizer que estou plenamente apaixonada por essa estória, é uma forma divertida de ver a vida de casado, e alem disso mostra como duas pessoas apreendem juntas a viver e descobrir como cada coisa se encaixa no cotidiano, e como você não consegue ficar longe de quem ama.
E uma história, eu já estou terminando o volume 4, e tinha até esquecido de deixar minha opinião antes, e então aqui está classifico com 5 estrela, e digo que daria mais se fosse possível.

So, this sequel was not my favourite mainly because I was confused for most of it and honestly I still have a ton of questions. I might continue on with the series mainly just out of curiosity for those answers but the overall story and characters haven’t really drawn me in.

I really hope the next volumes start to pick up and we get to learn more about Tsukasa and her mysterious past and family.

Overall, this was just a mediocre read for me unfortunately!

2.5/5 🌟

Ok I'm going to give up on this. Nothing much happens in volume 2 except clichés and two pages hinting at "something".

There is an introduction a bunch of new female characters who are designed to revolve around the MC there is just nothing progressing the story. The first volume by comparison had much more to offer.

[Sarah Sammis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Much of this volume is played for comedy — for expectations of what normally comes during a bath scene. The author is clearly aware of the tropes and delights in subverting them. Sometimes he goes further by adding authorial asides.

Still very fluffy. We do get to see the main character where she came from, apparently she is rich. But still no real depth of substance. And some fan service and some sexual jokes. hope the story picks up soon I want a little more depth.

[rara ➶ · Rating 2 out of 5]

well. this is where my journey with this series stops unless i'm possessed or something and choose to continue. a little sad i really wanted a fun romance manga, but anyways!

[Mark · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nasa and Tsukasa are still getting to know one another after their snap marriage and that means some miscommunications, video rentals, kidnappings, and correcting some missed steps like buying rings and proposing. Also they parachute in a bunch of new characters and there’s a whole hot spring thing going on.

I still have no idea what the flip is going on with this book. It name checks the Princess Kaguya tale and has oblique mentions of moon rocks and implications that Tsukasa’s adoptive family has done very well for themselves, but is this really going to be as on the nose as all that? Or does it even matter?

At any rate, with no answers forthcoming, that leaves it to the gentle charm and humour to carry this book and, to my surprise, I found myself really okay with what this volume was putting out there for me to sample.

It might be more that I just knew what to expect, but the narrator jokes were better and I do love that Nasa and Tsukasa are genuinely fond of each other. This is an actually funny book and while it’s not a gut buster, it’s pretty strong all the same.

The hot springs visit at the start is probably the best part of the volume. There are a couple of points where Fly Me to the Moon breaks the fourth wall and Nasa realizing that he must be in a hot springs episode (typically reserved to boost blu-ray sales) and how that plays (or doesn’t play) out is great (the narration kills it when we cut to Tsukasa).

We also get our first couple of new characters and Kaname, one of two sisters who runs the hot springs (the story behind this is also great), is the perfect addition to the cast. She is a brilliantly unflappable teenager - as at ease barging into the men’s bath (her flippant attitude towards Nasa’s junk is very amusing) as she is renting smutty anime - and might be my favourite character in the book.

I don’t care for her sister, Aya, as much, but I think even the book realizes that a little of her goes a long way. Although her efforts at introducing herself to Tsukasa and complimenting her skin are pretty good, she has a very shrill delivery that gets a bit grating.

If anything, the book layers on too many characters over the course of this volume. Tsukasa’s sister Chitose shows up and is also a fun addition; the way that Nasa completely defuses her without trying is pretty funny.

I care less for the strange cat-eared maids in Chitose’s employ, who are more than a little generic (although one is termed a combat maid in an obvious nod to the author’s previous series). That said, this leads to a joke about photoshop and a bit of back and forth between Nasa and Tsukasa that’s a genuine laugh out loud moment.

And like I said, there is the barest hint of a plot going on here. Mostly it is just two people being affectionate and learning to live together and for now that’s made up for by how ridiculously likeable large chunks of it are.

3.5 stars, though no rounding up because there’s no real suggestion of what the heck is going on or if a plot might exist. Still, with two leads who are super cute together and a bunch of solid jokes, I am adding this to my pull list for the foreseeable future. Any book that’s got a sight gag of an x-rated Miyazaki parody is doing fine by me.

[Alveeno · Rating 5 out of 5]

Tonikaku Cawaii by Kenjiro Hata which roughly translates to Over The Moon For You is a sweet romantic manga, about learning to love, grow, and communicate as a new couple. Tonikaku for short is an on-going manga with its second volume released in early 2019. The main protagonist, Nasa Yuzaki is learning and exploring the wonders of marriage with his new wife Tsukasa who just re-entered his life, they continue to adjust to their new lifestyles and overcome unusual obstacles together as a couple.  



I was very impressed with the first volume, and I adore the second volume even more.  The author focused on the couple’s development while also making it cute and adorable which can make a grown man blush. The plot was paced a little faster and a little hint of Tsukasa's origin was shown which can always raise more questions and hook in the readers. The slice of life can be repetitive sometimes but it wasn't a huge problem that can overpower the pureness and innocence of our newlyweds. It was sweet to see how Nasa tries his best to learn more about his wife’s hobby so they can enjoy it together, or Nasa doing his best to show his appreciation while Tsukasa often misinterprets and it usually ends up with an adorable awkward moment. You can definitely see that they’re young and don't know what they’re doing, but their affection for each other is so wholesome it can make you feel single.



 Henceforth, considering there is more to the manga, I'm eagerly waiting to get started on volume 3 and I hope we can learn more about Tsukasa who can be an alien for all we know. I would recommend this manga to young teens since the target audience is Shonen and it's so wholesome it will be able to fuel their love hormones as it did for me. That’s why I gave this volume a 5 star but further opinion might change as I progress.

Warnings: sexual harassment

What do you do when you are newly married and in love with someone who is practically a stranger? Well, if you are Nasa Yuzaki, you work on dubious advice that is more likely to cause a misunderstanding. The volume begins with their first daylight time together, and it starts with them going to the local bathhouse since his house does not have a bathroom. First, though, he has to endure the curiosity of the younger of the sisters who manage the bathhouse (sisters who he has helped in the past, so they are like practically family friends in a sense) who is understandably shocked to find out her middle school senpai is suddenly married, and to a hottie no less. Tsukasa, meanwhile, unwittingly creates a misunderstanding of her own with the older sister (who is so adorably awkward and hilarious!).

Then, they get to know each other through some appliance shopping, where Nasa finds out his wife is a movie buff and he barely knows the titles of movies. The story makes it plain that they are quite different individuals, and I wish it had taken a more grounded approach to this differences of theirs, even if it is playing it off for humor. Alas, Nasa is stuck at the record for 'I love my cute wife' and has drunk his 'girls have their own culture' juice so hard he is still amazed at beauty regimens, which makes his claim of loving her so shallow, even if his characterization tends more towards being a very earnest person.

There are also some shenanigans involving her family, specifically a doting grandmother who is out of the scenes right now, but I feel might be important later on, and a sis-con younger sister who definitely doesn't approve of her choice of husband (can you BLAME her though, with such a shotgun wedding). Said younger sister going far to besmirch him to get her out of the marriage, though - well, the humor does go to the cliff of absurdity. Still, there are hints about Tsukasa strewn around to keep enough of the mystery, so I will hang on, I guess.

[Zero Stars for being a DNF]

Fly Me to the Moon (by Kenjirō Hata) focuses on the seemingly chance meeting between Nasa Yuzaki and Tsukasa Tsukuyomi. One fateful night during a snowstorm, Nasa, a teen prodigy, is almost killed in a roadside accident - until a mysterious woman appears against the light of the moon and saves his life. Nasa is eternally grateful and feels an instant attraction to her, believing she is some mythical moon goddess. Clumsily, Nasa proclaims his premature love for her, to which Tsukasa reciprocates in the form of an unusual agreement: she'll fall in love with him, too, but only if he'll marry her. Nasa agrees without hesitation, and so the two embark on a road of young marital bliss that's filled with awkward adoration and unearthed secrets.

Sadly, this will be as far as I care to venture into this manga series.

Despite the first volume's positive (but admittedly languid) start, I found myself rapidly disinterested while perusing this second entry. The artwork and lead characters of Nasa and Tsukasa remain highlights, but these weren't strong enough to encourage me to continue reading. Granted, we get introduced to two new female characters, but neither one is compelling and both seem to serve the role of tropes. Essentially, the bulk of the action, at least in the portion I read, is that Nasa and Tsukasa go to a public bathhouse and drama ensues (as well as some nearly-there-but-not-quite nudity). I quickly tired of the repetitive dramatics and sluggish plot, so I sat this down for good.

Fans of this sort of protracted, easy-to-take storytelling will probably better appreciate this manga. But the slow slice-of-life approach was just a little too slow for me.

Content:
Language - None (that I can recall, as this was a DNF).

Violence - None (that I can recall, as this was a DNF). Some characters get into mild verbal spats.

Sexual Content - Nothing in terms of any actual sexual content, but there are a few panels of near nudity. Based on the portion I read, Nasa and Tsukasa go to a public bath house. Here, they go their separate ways, and Nasa is seen naked from the front, side, and back, but the panels avoid showing anything below the waist. (A female attendant mops floors in the male's side of the bath house, and she makes a few double entendres about Nasa's male assets.) Elsewhere, Tsukasa is shy about undressing in public, and she keeps her towel on even while in the bath. Another woman joins her and starts washing her back in a non-sensual manner as the two make casual chitchat. Lastly, Nasa hopes to finally glimpse his new wife naked, but (based on the portion I read), he never gets the chance.

"Apalah daya perkawinan tanpa lamaran"

Nasa dan Tsukasa yang telah menikah, kini dihadapkan pada penolakan adik ipar. Chitose menolak keras hubungan perkawinan kakaknya dan bersiap merencanakan foto skandal agar bahtera rumah tangga yang baru satu hari itu getas.

Sementara itu Nasa cemas memikirkan hubungannya yang tidak memiliki lamaran, dan cincin pernikahan. Mampukah ia mengatasi cobaan dan rintangan yang menghadang dirinya dan sang istri?

Kisahnya semakin manis dan perkembangan hubungan Nasa dengan Tsukasa juga tampak berjalan lancar bahkan semakin menggemaskan. Aku nggak eskpetasi mereka bakal ciuman secepat ini tapi itu bikin aku menjerit dalam hati.

Tingkah konyol pasangan suami istri ini cocok bagi yang mau bacaan ringan dengan unsur romcom, aku nggak ragu merekomendasikannya judul ini karena ternyata aku bisa jatuh cinta dengan alur bahkan humornya. hehehe...

[kuristina- tabreez · Rating 4 out of 5]

Is Tsukasa… Princess Kaguya of the story of the moon? There are numerous details to suggest it, but I wonder if that’s a mere red herring.

Besides that, Tsukasa and Nasa’s marriage continues to be awkward but cute as they soften the curve of getting to know each other better. Marriages and relationships can sometimes become fraught with misunderstandings, and that seems to be the current state of their marriage. However, with the groundwork they’re laying and the love they hold for each other, I’m certain that they’ll be able to grow together in ways that improve their communication.

[Kiera Ponting · Rating 3 out of 5]

This series continues to be the right amount of cosy to fit between heavier reads. Something that I'm enjoying about it is actually seeing a manga couple together from the get-go, and experiencing the ups and downs of a relationship, while in many other manga series we only see couples get together at the very end. It's refreshing in this aspect, and that combined with the continuing mystery of Tsukasa's identity are enough for me to want to continue reading.

Lots of new characters in this volume! I think Kaname might be my favorite so far. She’s full of sass. Haha.
From what happened in this volume, I feel like Tsukasa might not be human? Or from Earth?

Anyway, I’m loving the humor and the craziness of this story so far. I’m excited for the next volume.

[Juan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Una segunda entrega que llena el corazón de ternura (yo creo que así serán los siguiente tomos, o almenos hasta que selaga de las historias que fueron animadas), si lo comparo con el tomo 1 es bastante bueno pero no llega a superar la comedia y tierno de los personajes.

Por ahora muy entretenido y recomendable.

[Oliver · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still very adorable, this time we meet Tsukasa's younger sister Chitose and her maids Aurora and Charlotte, both maids are hilarious since one is more deadpan than the other so their conversations are golden. Also the best part about rereading this volume is seeing the references I didn't pick up on the first read though.

4/5.
