Also known as No Matter What You Say, Furi-san is Scary!.

Status: Finished

Furi Youko definitely looks like a delinquent: she’s got a tough-girl image that wouldn’t be out of place in a gang. When Taira Namito finds himself sitting next to her in his high school class, he’s immediately afraid of her. But as it turns out, Furi’s rough-and-tumble exterior hides a wholesome, totally cute person underneath–and she’s got the hots for Taira. (Although that part goes right over his head.) One misunderstanding leads to another in this romantic comedy about a clueless dude and the adorable, slightly terrifying affections of the tough girl by his side!

Super quiet Aharen Reina isn’t great with personal space—she’s either inches from your face or too far to hear, leaving people totally baffled. But when Raido, the friendly guy seated next to her, helps retrieve a dropped eraser, Aharen suddenly wants to get closer to him. From that moment on, she’s constantly by his side. And surprisingly…he’s cool with it.

This offbeat, sweet-natured rom-com proves that friendship—and maybe even something more—can bloom from the most awkward encounters.
