The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy at All, Vol. 1 (Volume 1) (The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy at All, 1) Paperback – October 22, 2024

This is such a cute book, I absolutely love it!! The story is fast pace, but it doesn’t feel rushed at all. I want to read more! ;-; There are lots of details and the characters are great; they each stand out individually. Also the art is so eye catching with the bright green and black panels, it’s so cool! And it works great with the story’s style.

Engaging story with plenty of fun music references and delightful comedy. Refreshing different art styles from a traditional manga due to it starting out on social media bringing different hues to the work while still typically following a 4-pg chapter storytelling model.

Absolutely in love with this art style??? I love the way the green pops, and the book itself feels well made. The story itself is very cute and I love the way it is written. As someone into rock bands, I can easily keep up with references and songs mentioned, which is neat. Definitely going to be following this series and buying the rest of the volumes as they release.

Slowly but surely fell in love with these two. I've been keeping up with this story since I first saw it on twitter years ago! I did find it somewhat cheesy at points, but overall I enjoyed reading it. I live for good lesbian representation though so I could be biased. I would say this could be really for anyone looking for a cute little wlw romance manga!

The covers art style looked cool, I picked it up on a whim. I'm so glad I did. The story feels earnest and full of heart.I really hope the artist/ story teller creates more.Truly a great read and amazing art.

The media could not be loaded. If you are looking for bad*ss art, like truly truly amazing spectacular art, great story, likeable characters, awesomeness in general, and some rock and roll this story is for you!The main story is slow but honestly I’m here for the vibes. What called my attention at first was the art because is truly something amazing to see. There are some panels that the perspective view blows my mind. Sumiko Arai did an amazing job drawing this. I’m a fan for sure! Literally made my little artsy heart get inspired.I truly love that the English version is green and has some pages colored as the original in Japanese. Great quality for sure!

I’m so glad that this manga got a physical English release! Sumiko Arai is an excellent artist and story teller. I even have the Japanese versions that I bought from a convention recently. Unfortunately, Amazon only packaged the book in the basic plastic envelope packaging so it arrived very bent up. The Japanese versions I got had a plastic dust cover/wrap that sealed the book so that the pages would have less chance of getting damaged. I wish the English version had this too or that Amazon had shipped it to me in a box with some bubble wrap. Nevertheless, I’m happy I have a physical copy that I can read in a language that I understand.*******************Update: I was able to request a replacement and it arrived in much better condition. The packaging was the same and there’s a small bend in the bottom left corner of the back cover but atleast its not the whole book bending in multiple places like the 1st copy I received.Pictures 1-4 = 1st bookPictures 5-7 = Replacement

How cute was this! I loved the story, which I thought was very fun and beautiful, and I’m so excited for the continuation.
