Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun, Vol. 05

The mix of comedy and heartfelt moments feels perfectly paced, but I wonder if that was a conscious choice or evolved naturally during writing.

The growth of the characters felt really authentic, making me curious about how much of that was planned from the start or if it developed organically.

The school scenes feel so relatable and lively — I wonder if the author based it on a real place or created it entirely from imagination.
